Heh. Now Marjorie is too extreme for Kevin. Too little too late, asshole.

It appears that Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) has finally crossed a line that House GOP leader Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) cannot ignore.

After she appeared as a featured speaker at a white nationalist conference over the weekend, McCarthy was asked by reporter Jake Sherman if he still stood by her.

"Last week I was just in Israel," McCarthy said. "When I come back I see two colleagues who went and participated with a group that has a leader that many times gives anti-Semitic views, and led a chant for Putin. For me it was appalling and wrong."

Otherwise, he'd be fine. She's been just as onerous before this.

Nonetheless, this is good news.

In November when 95% of the GOP run states OUTRIGHT REFUSE to certify any election their candidate loses whether that be a House or Senate race, the America we knew is gone.

He's just running his mouth with what everyone expects should be heard. What he does will be the tell. I expect nothing.
