Lauren Boebert claimed on Monday that Ilhan Omar hung up on her during a phone call amid a growing row over Islamophobia
Boebert said Omar wanted a public apology after she was caught on video making an offensive joke about the Democratic lawmaker
Omar - one of the first Muslim women in Congress - said it is past time for GOP leadership to punish her
'Saying I am a suicide bomber is no laughing matter,' Omar tweeted Friday
Boebert tweeted an apology but on Monday said she also demanded an apology from Omar for her anti-American, antisemitic, anti-police stances
Rep. Nancy Mace (R-S.C.) called Boebert's comments 'disgusting'
Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.) called Mace 'trash'
Mace defended herself and called Greene a 'religious bigot' and a racist
GOP Rep. Marjorie Greene on Tuesday called her Republican House colleague Nancy Mace 'trash' for saying Lauren Boebert's Ilhan Omar suicide bomber joke was 'disgusting'.
Greene sparked an ugly clash on Twitter when she accused the South Carolina congresswoman of being pro-abortion, told her to 'hang with your real gal pals in the Jihad Squad' and wrote 'your of your league'.
Mace hit back by correcting the 'you're' spelling in Greene's tweet, called herself a 'pro-life fiscal conservative' and added: 'What I’m not is a religious bigot (or racist). You might want to try that over there in your little "league"'.
The latest round in the spat within the Republican party over Boebert's comments played out after Mace on Sunday condemned 'racist tropes' and 'disgusting comments' on both sides of the aisle when Boebert compared Ilhan Omar to a suicide bomber.
That defense of a Democratic lawmaker did not sit well with Greene, who has clashed with lawmakers from both parties and had her committee assignments stripped

Mace truly is a Country Club/RINO clown, that’s for sure.
Sure hope she gets some competition. It’d be great to see some regular Guy/Gal show up and send her home after one term.
She spelled “You’re” wrong. I hate that.
I really like this lady. She doesn’t play games or take prisoners. We need more like in Congress.
New meaning to taking out the ‘trash’
Lauren should never have apologized.
eye no ewe due.
Nancy Mace is Bush League.
They always believe in their friends across the aisle.
SC ping, please.
I’m deeply disappointed in Nancy Mace. Guess I shouldn’t be. She let us all know where she stands when she voted to certify the fraudulent November, 2020 election and to hold Steve Bannon in contempt of Congress.
Mace is a RINO!
Never bring Mace to a Greene fight.
She dances around some pretty weird conspiracy theories (e.g., space laser fires).
But, hey, at this rate conspiracy theories might as well be called “spoiler alerts”.
That seems to be all that South Carolina elects, see Grahamnesty and Scott.
Ewe ar sew sillee!

My first reaction was “this isn’t helpful as it will just end up costing MTG her seat”.
But then I looked at her history. She won the Republican runoff by 57% and the general against a Democrat by 75%. So maybe her constituents approve and won’t hold these comments against her.
She may be one Congressperson with an R after the name who has the guts to speak truths and not care about the consequences. That has value, not only to appease those like us (a small fraction of whom can actually vote for her) but by shocking others out of their complacency and modeling what a courageous member of congress looks like.
We cannot spare this woman. She fights.
Duh.
Stupid cat fight. Ease grow up ladies.
And to think that I gave up Kaine, Warner, Governor "Black Face" Northam, Fairfax and Herring for Miss Lindsey, Tim Scott and Nancy Mace.
At least my new Congressman is Ralph Norman who impresses me, so far, as a Constitutional Conservative. (He's in the House Freedom Caucus, etc.)
Which one. There are four of them in this article
