And she was escorted out by Capitol Police, on the order of the Republican chairman.

Her and her ilk needed a conspiracy, needed someone to blame besides Trump. It’s never Trump’s fault for anything he botches, it’s always someone else, everything’s “rigged” against him.
I heard someone (who is nominally leftist) mention that he’d heard “the lab leak was confirmed” when in fact it’s never been confirmed 100% (it was always a possibility, and we should be concerned about lab safety.) The media just likes to play up the idea because it grabs attention.

Not confirmed 100%!?! It’s been neatly debunked.

When the next pandemic happens, they’ll likely go after whoever is coordinating that response too, as the anti-Fauci fact free crusade has been helpful to their central causes: increased campaign contributions and media attention.

I still anticipate that Greene will eventually do serious time in prison. She just seems the type to be indulging in a fairly wide variety of crimes.

MTG is such a symbol of how unabashedly evil the GOP is. “You should be prosecuted for your heroic efforts to save lives!” Fucking death cult.

She got the sound bite she was looking for and she’s using it on Twitter for some sort of victory lap.
She also made a huge deal about not using Fauci’s Dr. title.

Holy guacamole, she was really triggered today and said quite a few swears.
She’s also trying to rewrite history when it comes to lock downs and the vaccine.
I’m pretty sure the guy she doesn’t worship takes credit for the vaccine.
In that rant she kept saying she doesn’t worship trump, she worships God and Jesus but she posted this this morning.

… maybe that was somebody else
The audience was an active participant in Monday’s hearing as well. Many activists showed up, at least one wearing a “Fire Fauci” T-shirt. One protester who said she was a doctor interrupted the hearing so many times, accusing the National Institutes of Health of covering up the origins of the virus, that she had to be escorted from the room by Capitol Police.

My mistake, then. In context, it read like MTG had to be removed

Something about the way they treat Fauci really boils my blood.

It certainly wouldn’t have been the most correct correct or useful response, but I’d like to have seen Dr. Fauci stand up, politely say “I’m too old for this shit” and walk out while she was railing on him.

Dr. Fauci’s cool and professional demeanor is exactly how these fools need to be handled.
I continue to work to keep my cool and press forward a vision of peace and cooperation … a world that is empathetic and caring.
Thank you Dr. Fauci!
