Rep. Greene says ‘morons’ voted to boot her from committees

WASHINGTON (AP) — Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene has lashed out at “morons” in both parties who voted to kick her off her committees. Her remark Friday came a day after the House meted out the unprecedented punishment that Democrats said she’d earned by spreading hateful and violent conspiracy theories. All but 11 Republicans voted against the Democratic move on Thursday but none rose to defend her lengthy history of outrageous social media posts. That underscored the political vise that Greene’s inflammatory commentary has clamped her party into. Greene says not being on committees will give her more time to talk to people around the country.
