Marjorie Taylor Greene: 'Investigations' for Companies Not Donating to GOP [View all]

Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene, a Georgia Republican, has promised "investigations" for corporations that stopped donating to GOP politicians who supported former President Donald Trump's claims of a "stolen" 2020 election.

Greene said during a Wednesday appearance on former Trump adviser Steve Bannon's War Room podcast that, should Republicans regain control of the House following next month's midterms, GOP representatives would target corporate donors that refused to continue financial support to those who supported claims of massive fraud in the last presidential election.
