MTG unloads on ‘Never Kevin Caucus’ for ‘risking the gavel’ in wake of Lauren Boebert feud – By Ryan King (Washington Examiner) / Dec 20, 2022

MAGA star Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) lashed out at Republican colleagues for “lying to the base” and risking the speaker’s gavel by opposing House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy (R-CA).

Stressing that it is “IMPOSSIBLE for a conservative to get 218 votes” and noting her differences with him, Greene argued that the GOP will never be productive if members say “never” to “someone just because we don’t like them.” Her remarks come off the heels of a verbal dust-up with Rep. Lauren Boebert (R-CO) over McCarthy.

“It’s also lying to the base about a ‘plan’ that doesn’t exist, no candidate, & no way of working that I refuse to be part of and silent about,” Greene wrote in a lengthy 25-tweet thread. “Risking the gavel & delaying everything just bc they don’t like someone is not only selfish, it’s incredibly reckless and dangerous.”
