Last week was a tumultuous one for the House of Representatives, with a lawless speakership election that almost ended in a physical altercation. Rep. Lauren Boebert (R-Colo.) and Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.) have been at the center of the chaos, with Boebert attempting to “take the temperature down a notch” while Greene continues to make headlines with her controversial conspiracy theories.
In an interview with the Associated Press during the House speaker election, Boebert said she was asked to explain Greene’s beliefs on Jewish space lasers and why she attended a white supremacist conference. Boebert refused to comment on the matter, saying “I’m just not going to go there.”
The two congresswomen, who are on the same fringe of the political spectrum, do not appear to have a warm relationship. When asked about Greene’s behavior on Twitter, Boebert said “She wants to say all these things and seem unhinged on Twitter, so be it.”
Key takeaways:
- Rep. Lauren Boebert (R-Colo.) and Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.) have been at the center of the chaos in the House of Representatives.
- Boebert refused to comment on Greene’s beliefs on Jewish space lasers and attending a white supremacist conference.
