Democrats have thrown down the gauntlet on Marjorie Taylor Greene, a Republican congresswoman and QAnon conspiracy theorist from Georgia.
Greene has dabbled in 9/11 conspiracy theories, questioned whether school shootings were staged, and suggested that a “Jewish” space laser started the California wildfires. She richly deserves the opprobrium she receives. My colleague Jonah Goldberg is right to state that the “GOP has cancer. It can deal with it now, or later.” Fringe representatives from both parties have long indulged in the morass of conspiracies. Anti-Masonic conspiracies long found fertile ground on Capitol Hill. Maxine Waters, for example, made a name for herself alleging the CIA was trafficking crack cocaine into American cities. Former U.S. representative Keith Ellison was an acolyte of Nation of Islam leader Louis Farrakhan who suggested that Jews created homosexuality, financed the Holocaust and supported Hitler, and secretly control both America and Mexico.
