SIGN ON Friend, McCarthy has refused to take disciplinary actions against Greene and voted against removing her from committee assignments, which passed with bipartisan support despite his opposition. Republican House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy is failing in his duty to reprimand Greene for her words and deeds. And yet he continues to embrace members like Greene while ousting Rep. Liz Cheney from House GOP leadership for telling the truth and calling out Trump’s Big Lie that the election was stolen. The list of reasons why Rep. Greene should be expelled from Congress goes on and on, but here are a few : – She has repeatedly publicly supported calls to execute prominent Democratic politicians, including liking a Facebook comment that called for Nancy Pelosi to get "a bullet to the head." In other posts, Greene liked comments about executing FBI agents who were alleged to be part of the "deep state" working against Trump. – She endorsed conspiracy theories claiming that 9/11 was an inside job and that the Sandy Hook shooting–where 26 elementary school children and teachers were massacred–was staged. – She is Islamophobic and antisemitic and suggested the 2018 midterms–when our nation’s first two Muslim Congresswomen were elected–was part of “an Islamic invasion of our government,” and she thinks Jewish space lasers are responsible for a wildfire in California. – She was one of the many members of Congress who voted to object to the election results after the deadly, white supremacist attack on our Capitol and our democracy. – On January 12, after the insurrection and after results of the election had been certified by all 50 states, by the Electoral College, and by Congress, she tweeted, “President Trump will remain in office.” – She has repeatedly targeted, threatened, and harassed other members of Congress including Congresswomen Cori Bush and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez. And that’s just scratching the surface. Our country and democracy are in danger every minute that Rep. Greene is still a member of Congress. McCarthy can change this. Thanks for all you do, MoveOn.
