February 2, 2021 Senate Republican Leader Blasts Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene's "Loony Lies and Conspiracy Theories" -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- House Democrats introduced a resolution Monday to remove Georgia Republican Marjorie Taylor Greene from her committee assignments over her history of violent threats and racist, anti-Muslim and anti-Semitic comments. On Monday, Senate Republican leader Mitch Mc Connell did not mention Greene directly by name, but referred to her "loony lies and conspiracy theories" - describing them as a cancer for the Republican Party. Mc Connell told The Hill, "Somebody who's suggested that perhaps no airplane hit the Pentagon on 9/11, that horrifying school shootings were pre-staged, and that the Clintons crashed JFK Jr.'s airplane is not living in reality." .
