Marjorie Taylor Greene scraps launch of ‘America First’ caucus after GOP blowback

Conservative Georgia Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene is scrapping the planned launch of her "America First" caucus after receiving blowback from leaders in her own party, despite confirming through a spokesperson on Friday that the caucus would launch.
Nick Dyer, Greene's spokesperson, told CNN in an email on Saturday afternoon the Georgia Republican is not "launching anything."
"The Congresswoman wants to make clear that she is not launching anything. This was an early planning proposal and nothing was agreed to or approved," he said in an email to CNN, referring to a flier promoting the caucus, obtained by Punchbowl News, that used inflammatory rhetoric.
He added that "she didn't approve that language and has no plans to launch anything."
This is a reversal from Friday, when her office said she would launch the caucus "very soon."
"Be on the look out for the release of the America First Caucus platform when it's announced to the public very soon," Dyer said in a statement to CNN Friday.

  1. Marjorie Taylor Greene: “They Are Coming To Your Neighborhoods!!!” ~ KKK 70 years Ago: “They Are Coming To Your Neighborhoods!!!”

  2. Marjorie Taylor Greene is just upset that she’s way too old for Matt Gaetz to pay her money and to travel with him.😅

  3. A break not only on «America First» but on Taylor Greene also. She is the definition of ignorance, incompetence and simply treason.

    1. Why does everyone hate Acosta ? Because he is such a freakin liar ! … Also regarding the Officer Brian Sicknick of the US Capitol Police died after suffering two strokes, but there was no evidence of internal or external injuries from the January 6 unrest, the Washington, DC medical examiner has finally revealed.
      CNN made a big PROPAGANDA out of it!

    2. American values are laziness, ignorance, and greed. The big one, which is common on this threads arrogance without and justification for it.

    3. @Pierre Bibeau your against white supremacists? You sure? You might want to say it a few more times until you make sure people believe you.

  4. Marjorie Taylor Greene cannot be trusted, no matter what she says, she’s still NOT a good person.

    1. @seohuyllakcuf tell me when you explain what’s false about this racist Marjorie Taylor Greene story. When and if you ever disprove this story I’ll listen to you.

    2. @Meedeeuh Areliars Taylor Greene is a racist and we have Kamala Harris as VP. I know how much you love a woman in power so congrats on your new love affair. I’ll pass it along how much you love Harris.

    3. @J_a_m_i_e i would like to point out, anyone, during a BLM protest, breaking into a foot locker is nowhere near comparable to breaking into our nation’s capitol building. Not 1 BLM protest ended in the breaking into any state house, or federal congressional place of business. In fact, if you include the storming of the Michigan statehouse, MAGA supporters did this nonsense twice. And twice, we’re met with nowhere near the force of any protest against police brutality. Hell, the police lobbed pepper balls and flash bang grenades at Mothers. Mothers peacefully protesting police brutality. With all respect for your opinions, i feel there is a false equivalency in your statement.

    4. @J_a_m_i_e Do you need a hug sweetie, some tissue? I love the trumpie whine, it’s music to my ears and brings a smile to my face, please don’t stop whining cupcake.

    1. Trump’s so-called America First only resulted in America alone. Trump’s foreign policy was a disaster for the US.

  5. As you watch these people remember that the number one way to tell a narcissist guaranteed if they refuse to accept responsibility for their mistakes and bad behavior

    1. @mrclean247365 um..it does not. The left is actively trying to make people’s lives better. The right has campaigned on taking away rights and freedoms from others.

    2. Why does everyone hate Acosta ? Because he is such a freakin liar ! … Also regarding the Officer Brian Sicknick of the US Capitol Police died after suffering two strokes, but there was no evidence of internal or external injuries from the January 6 unrest, the Washington, DC medical examiner has finally revealed.

  6. I think what Greene did is often called a “trial balloon” but it went over like a “lead balloon.” And, in typical “I’m just a victim here” response, she blames the media and “outsiders.”

    1. @Bob Davis and…..what’s your point? We’re talking about a woman who has
      1)harassed teenage survivors of a school massacre, and called that massacre a false flag.
      2)made delusional claims about Jewish space lasers starting forest fires.
      3)expressed support for executing fellow members of Congress.
      4)ran for Congress on a family values platform, but has been revealed as an adulterer.
      5)is an extremely vocal proponent of the moronic QAnon conspiracy theory.
      6)liked posts advocating for the execution of FBI agents
      7)called the sandy hook elementary school massacre a false flag

    2. She is a sad story human being that truly is a detriment to not only her constituents but the entire Congress.

    3. that’s the problem with people like her, never takes responsibility, blames everyone for everything.

  7. lol She said “the only person wanting this” and I immediately thought gaetz….”was gaetz”…imagine my shock.
    MTG is certifiable.

    1. @extremely careless That’s all you right wing nut jobs can cry about, a laptop nobody gives a crap about! 🤣🤣

  8. Wait a couple of weeks…let’s see how much of those funds will have to be returned to the donors because a 2nd, third account debit entries were NOT AUTHORIZED!!!!!

    1. @Josh say what you want, but project veritas is fake news. Literally a propaganda arm of the GOP, specifically designed to drum up phony stories to make democrats look bad.

      You want to believe them, because of confirmation bias. They tell you what you want to hear, and you regurgitate it, because you wish it to be true.

      It isn’t. Look it up. Tell me I’m wrong if it makes you feelings less hurt, but proving me wrong isn’t something you’re capable of doing. You’ve been cheering for propaganda this whole time, so you’re either a hypocrite or a gullible fool.

    2. @UnexpectedDanger I guess I’m going to put this in another perspective say your on a train track you see a train coming the engineer runs to the front of the train and yells don’t worry your just dreaming. Do you trust him or do you move? Now do you got watch it. Or do you believe what Wikipedia tells you? Let’s see how ignorant you want to be.

  9. Whenever you think that demons dont exist take a look at mtg and her allies. They sure as hell arent human beings with souls

    1. @mrclean247365 it’s coming alright, another blue wave to wash all you Nazis out of the country. Confederates lost, the Nazis lost, trump lost… You guys just can’t catch a break.

    2. @Radagast Brown lol. Biden is pathetic. You can forget about Trump, Biden is a terrible president.

    3. @UnexpectedDanger you act like all those things were the same and that those in the right belong to a group that no longer exists. You seriously have something wrong.

    4. @Vlad the Inhaler I’m 100% right though. Claiming I’m wrong is easy, that’s why you did it. Proving me wrong is impossible, which is why you didn’t try 😉

    5. @Vlad the Inhaler Biden’s got a great approval rating 😉 won by a landslide, and is kicking coronavirus’s butt. He’s done more in a few months than trump ever did.

  10. When I hear about Greene and what she says, the image that keeps popping into my head is Rick James saying “cocaine is a hell of a drug”. 🤣🤣🤣🤣

  11. MTG clearly has temporal lobe issues and she needs medical attention stat! Hope she feels better soon.

    1. Like most ‘Trumpian’ followers, Ms. Greene will remain unmoored to reality. They prove the old shaman on “Kung Fu” correct when he told grasshopper, “To see is a difficult task…”

    2. Too much botox. It’s leaking into her brain. Look at how swollen her face is. She looks like a boxer.

  12. Does anyone else ever notice that when something someone shares or retweets and it goes bad, they always say
    ” Well, I didn’t read the whole thing” or ” I wasn’t made aware of the context” or ” my staff wrote it” ?
    Man these people are idiots. Most folks don’t comment on things they didn’t read.

    1. Yicks… may be there might be a slight sparkle of humanity in the somewhere. But it could be a trap to.

    2. Every time CNN places the cheese out in the open, the Trumpublican rat’s right away come in search for food.

  13. When she showed me who she is, I believed her the first time. We still have the same old problem in America, where some “folks” think they’re more American than “others”. Sad.

    1. Isn’t it funny how Republicans think they’re more american because of their flags and constant talking about it, and others aren’t because they don’t? Im sorry I don’t have to be a jackass who doesn’t believe in good ideals and constantly wave a flag to be American or patriotic.

    2. @Sarg778returns personally, I enjoy asking these ” brave patriots” and “real americans” how much military service time they’ve logged. And then the crickets come out.. lol.

    3. @Sarg778returns it’s easy to size them up with their racism…. racism is anti Americanism. End of discussion

    4. It’s not just sad it’s hilarious when you’re educated on the history of the country not the mickey mouse stuff they give us in highschool

    1. @extremely careless So what’s your point. Like I said you want to stereotype everyone and place them in a box and dehumanize to justify your own hatred. Good luck with that. Many single parent homes are very successful and raise good kids. You can take your white, evangelical spin and the way YOU think society should work and cram it. You have no idea what you’re talking about.

    2. @Jo M Really? Antifa posted on Facistbook they were going to dress up as Trump supporters and riot. This was what they said. Also I have several pictures on my phone of the Media posing with Antifa for pictures. ( You can go to Parler and see those pictures) Very easy to find. Also Trump asked for 10,000 National Guard Troops to be at the Capitol on Jan 6 and he was turned down by the DC Mayor Muriel Bowser and Nancy Pelosi. Guess who was in Charge of the Capitol Police then? Pelosi because she was in charge of the Senate. The Capitol Police Chief even admitted that Trump asked for the National Guard and was turned down. You keep believing the Lies and the Garbage that CNN puts out. (Oops I forget the Propaganda that CNN puts out). Maybe if you were able to think clearly without the filth that comes from the MSM you would be able to do some Credible Research and realize you have been manipulated.

    3. @Master Moose but….you never answered the question. You mentioned 1 book. I said how many. See. Listen to the question.

    4. @extremely careless there is no intellectual rigor to modern conservative/ regressive thought. I could articulate your twisted world view better than you could. Its literally just nativist, white nationalist, Christian fear mongering and dog whistles. All appealing to some sort of objective hierarchy of man that ought to be preserved. Usually white, straight, wealthy, native born people on top. Its not hard.

  14. “How dare they accuse me of doing something I actually was planning on doing! Yes, it was my idea but, that doesn’t mean anything.”
