8 of the most disturbing views expressed by Marjorie Taylor Greene, the pro-Trump congresswoman trying to impeach Biden Greg Evans
Twelve months ago, most people may not have heard of Marjorie Taylor Greene, but in a short about of time she has become possibly the most controversial Republican in the United States since the former president Donald Trump.
Greene was elected as the House Representative for Georgia s 14th congressional district in the November 2020 US election. She ran on a message of Save America, Stop Socialism but saw some of her ad campaigns removed from Facebook months before the election. According to CNN, one of the adverts that was pulled depicted Greene holding a gun next to the head of socialist members of the Democrats including Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez.

In a newly uncovered exchange, Marjorie Taylor Greene in 2018 agreed with a Facebook commenter who claimed that 9/11 “was done by our own gov[ernment]” and that “none of the school shootings were real or done by the ones who were supposedly arrested for them,” including the 2012 shooting at Sandy Hook Elementary School in Newtown, Connecticut, and the 2018 shooting at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland, Florida.
Media Matters reported earlier this week that Greene agreed in 2018 that the Parkland shooting was actually a false flag planned event. She also wrote in a separate post that she had supposedly been “told that Nancy Pelosi tells Hillary Clinton several times a month that ‘we need another school shooting’ in order to persuade the public to want strict gun control.”

In the United States, there are over 100 gun deaths each day and about 38,000 each year.
Despite the number of deaths, lingering health impacts from gunshot wounds, and the psychological impact a gun death or injury can have on a household or community, gun violence is framed as a political or criminal justice issue rather than a health issue.
