Dems Look to Expel Freshman GOP Member Over Conspiracy Theories

The wrath of the Democratic majority begins.

The reverberations of the January 6th attack on the Capitol are far from over, especially now that Congress is beginning to settle into their de facto Democratic majority.

Nancy Pelosi and her brood are growing a little less patient these days, and maybe somewhat vindictive, even.

The Democrats’ latest bombastic maneuver has been the introduction of a measure that would see one of the GOP’s most controversial freshman Representatives removed from office.

Rep. Jimmy Gomez on Wednesday announced that he plans to introduce a resolution to expel the controversial Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene from Congress, accusing Greene of previously supporting calls for “political violence” and advocating “extremism and sedition.”

The resolution would require the support of two-thirds of the members of the House to pass.

“As if it weren’t enough to amplify conspiracy theories that the September 11 attacks were an inside job and the mass shooting at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School was staged, a string of recent media reports has now confirmed that Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene had previously supported social media posts calling for political violence against the Speaker of the House, members of Congress, and former President Barack Obama,” Gomez, D-Calif., said.

Greene was a vocal supporter of the Qanon conspiracy theory during her campaign, becoming known more for her alignment with the phenomenon than for her policies in some circles.
