Jewish groups have called for the removal of House Republican Marjorie Taylor Greene from Congress, after she shared a wide-ranging conspiracy theory tinged with anti-Semitic tropes on Facebook.
Media Matters on Thursday revealed one of Georgia Rep. Greene s old Facebook posts from 2018, where she made several baseless claims about the cause of California s wildfires that same year. She simultaneously implied that the fires could have been started deliberately or accidentally by a solar power generating satellite, but either way the fires were conveniently along the route of the planned California High-Speed Rail project.

(Bloomberg) Speaker Nancy Pelosi called on House Republicans to remove freshman Georgia Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene from the Education and Labor Committee, citing her past comments dismissive of school-shooting victims.
“What could they be thinking?” Pelosi said of the Republican leaders on Thursday. “It’s absolutely appalling.”
Pelosi criticized Republican Leader Kevin McCarthy and other top GOP members for rewarding Greene with a role in overseeing education policy. Greene in the past has said that the 2012 Sandy Hook school shooting in Connecticut was a hoax created to enable the government to infringe on gun-ownership rights.
Matt Gaetz to rally Trump faithful to boost MAGA backlash in Liz Cheney’s backyard
Republican Rep. Matt Gaetz of Florida will rally the Trump faithful in Wyoming on Thursday, hoping to bring a MAGA backlash to GOP Rep. Liz Cheney’s backyard after she voted to impeach the former President for his role in inciting the riot at the Capitol.
The Republican party is now grappling with its future post-Trump, and some elected officials, like Gaetz, are positioning themselves as the bearer of his brand by attacking other Republicans like Cheney, who are hoping to move past it. Republican leaders have warned that the internecine fighting hurts the party.
