Greene lashes out at Mace’s ‘quite frankly disgusting’ Scalise criticism
The Hill ^ | 10/12/2023 | LAUREN SFORZA

Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.) took aim at Rep. Nancy Mace (R-S.C.) for her criticism of Majority Leader Steve Scalise (R-La.), calling it a “disgusting attack.”

Mace on Wednesday said she couldn’t vote for Scalise as the next House Speaker because he “attended a white supremacist conference and compared himself to David Duke.”

Greene, like Mace, said she was supporting House Judiciary Chairman Jim Jordan (R-Ohio) to replace former Speaker Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.) after he was ousted last week from the role. However, she claimed the South Carolina Republican’s comments about Scalise — who won the nomination for the top GOP spot — were unfair.

“Scalise — who won the nomination for the top GOP spot “

Using non voting members therefore not legitimate. A GOPe BS move.

Seems you always buy loaded words used by leftist journalists.

Lashes out
Slams
Etc…

They manipulate emotions by using charged language.

Thus “lashes out” rather than “said”

None of these stupid women should be in Congress.

Previously we had MTG and Boebert feuding over who called who a bitch, and who’s Impeachment was better.

Neither, as both are dumpster fires.

A young Michele Bachmann would be far better.

That’s not even discussing the public theater behavior.

Is it too much to ask a Congresswoman to not give handjobs in public?

There was no handjob in that video, maybe you were on another website and you just mixed it up.

Mace and MTG are a perfect pair. Each never lets an open mic unattended.

Attending a white supremacist conference

Though Scalise issued an apology in 2014 over allegedly speaking at a rally of the Duke-founded white nationalist European-American Unity and Rights Organization, evidence suggests that the apology may have been made in error and that the Louisiana Republican likely never even attended the rally.

Scalise “spoke early in the day to a contingent of people, prior to the conference kicking off,” Kenny Knight, an associate of Duke and a key source for the original claim, said in 2014, according to Slate. “He was not there as a guest speaker at the conference.”

In other words, he spoke in a room where the conference was going to begin later in the day, but it wasn’t being used by the group at the time of Scalise’s address.

Knight said Scalise spoke to a group consisting overwhelmingly of local residents unaffiliated with the group, and that only a small contingent of members had joined the crowd to watch. There were no signs or banners in the room indicating that it was going to be the location for a conference of the controversial group.

“I think not,” Knight said when asked if there were signs or banners of the group hanging around. “I really truly believe if there were any signs or banners up, Mr. Scalise would [have asked], ‘What is that?’ And he probably would have left. Because I don’t recall having any banners or signs up at all.”

Knight’s account was corroborated by Barbara Noble, his then-girlfriend.

The only other source claiming that Scalise spoke at the EURO conference was an anonymous user of Stormfront, a white supremacist message board.

An ‘association’ with David Duke

Scalise was “friendly” with Knight, Duke’s campaign manager, who was from the same neighborhood as the future congressman. Duke told the Washington Post in 2014 about the relationship between the two men, and Duke wound up speaking at the event preceding the EURO conference as a result of their relationship.

“Scalise would communicate a lot with my campaign manager, Kenny Knight,” Duke said. “That is why he was invited and why he would come. Kenny knew Scalise, Scalise knew Kenny. They were friendly.”

Duke didn’t speak about Scalise as though they were associates and told the outlet the two “never had a relationship.

“No lunches, no dinners with Scalise. I never supported him in any campaign,” Duke said. “I didn’t get the impression that he was one of us. I didn’t cultivate a relationship. Kenny was the one who did.”

No, there was. Unless you think over the pants dong stroking is okay in public.

When MTG is the voice of reason, you know you’ve gone too far.
