There was a heated battle of wits between two of the GOP’s most performative congresswomen. Fortunately, neither combatant was armed.
Politico reports that Georgia Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene and Colorado Rep. Lauren Boebert got into a spirited debate last month just a few blocks from the U.S. Capitol. The spat was said to have been over Greene’s speech at a February event with White Supremacist ties that drew negative attention to their shared political party. Boebert, no stranger to racist rhetoric, apparently took exception to her colleague’s appearance at that event.
The confrontation between the women is said to have taken place last month at a gathering of the House Freedom Caucus, where at least one onlooker feared things may have turned violent had a caucus board member not intervened.
