Her strong support of Trump-backed Kevin McCarthy, who has largely failed to maintain any of his promises he campaigned on was a leading cause of her dismissal.https://t.co/KNcnwn1cRx
Her support of House Speaker Kevin McCarthy seems to be the major reason for her dismissal. We are shocked.

Meanwhile, the cat fight between Marjorie Taylor Green and Lauren Boebeart continues apace. It seems that MTG has been kicked out of the so-called "Freedom" Caucus. 🤡

Other reports claim her name calling fueled dispute with Rep. Lauren Boebert was responsible for her expulsion. It is reported Boebert did not want Greene expelled over the incident. Props to Boebert for taking the high road.

When you vote to grow government, add 87,000 IRS agents and another 4 Trillion in debt, @mtgreenee you deserve to be expelled from the Freedom Caucus. ✌🏼

I wish we could see the vote spread for who expelled her. But yes she did this to her self.

You do have to wonder how the vote would have gone if it would not have been secret ballot. It is way more difficult to throw someone out of your club when you have to say it with your whole chest.
Wait yall turned on her too😂😂😂😂

Many supporters of MGT spoke out in her defense and urged her to hold her head high.
I am no fan of Marjorie Taylor Green, matter of fact I dislike her immensely. However, the state of our politics, especially in the republican party gotten ridiculous that if you don't fall in line with factions of your party, you are removed.

It is concerning we are approaching a huge election season and there seems to be so much disharmony among Republicans. It is time to regroup and fight Democrats rather than each other.
