Conservative Congresswoman Nancy Mace spent the weekend facing criticism for contradictory statements regarding COVID-19 vaccines in two separate interviews for Fox News and CNN.
But far-right Congresswoman and prominent conspiracy theorist Marjorie Taylor Greene of Georgia had another bone to pick with Mace.
Earlier this week, right-wing Congresswoman Lauren Boebert of Colorado faced widespread rebuke after a video of her Islamophobic screed to constituents went viral. In the video, Boebert suggested Congresswoman Ilhan Omar of Minnesota—one of the first Muslim women elected to Congress—was a terrorist-allied suicide bomber.
Mace decried Boebert's comments on a CNN appearance, saying:
"I have, time after time, condemned my colleagues on both sides of the aisle for racist tropes and remarks that I find disgusting, and this is no different from any others. ... We have a responsibility to lower the temperature, and this does not do that. I didn't come to Congress to throw bombs on Twitter, to take advantage of people by saying crazy things to raise money, or to be a comedian. I'll leave the comedy to Dave Chapelle."
Boebert apologized to "anyone in the Muslim community [she] offended," but not an apology to Omar. After a direct call to Omar in which she still refused to apologize, Boebert then said it was Omar who should apologize.
Mace's condemnation of Boebert's diatribe enraged Greene.
.@NancyMace is the trash in the GOP Conference.
Never attacked by Democrats or RINO’s (same thing) because she is not conservative, she’s pro-abort.
Mace you can back up off of @laurenboebert or just go hang with your real gal pals, the Jihad Squad.
Your out of your league.

It wasn't long before Mace issued a brutal response.
*you’re
And, while I’m correcting you, I’m a pro-life fiscal conservative who was attacked by the Left all weekend (as I often am) as I defied China while in Taiwan.
What I’m not is a religious bigot (or racist). You might want to try that over there in your little “league.” https://t.co/nIbqjiJaFH

A contentious Twitter back-and-forth soon ensued.
Pretty sad when a member of your own conference chooses to tell lies.
All in the name of grifting. That I am certain.

Just had a great conversation with President Trump about @NancyMace.
I absolutely love President Trump. He’s our leader!

I like my freshman colleagues who don’t think 9/11 was a hoax…
This one on the other hand… totally 🥜! https://t.co/em1hBB5DXF

Their exchange made waves on social media, even with a reaction from anti-Trump Republican Congressman Adam Kinzinger of Illinois.
I love this, but worth noting that while this battle between Nancy Mace and the unserious circus barker McSpacelaser, @GOPLeader continues his silent streak that would make a monk blush. https://t.co/iqWJG9wMmo

It is not the least bit inspiring or interesting to me to watch members of Congress snipe at each other on twitter.
What I'd like to see is a few hundred adults talking about what laws are being considered, and what their thoughts are.
What I'm getting is NextDoor. https://t.co/a0pzMFaFN2

Others joined her in slamming Greene's latest unhinged rant.
"...There are other qualities in human nature which justify a certain portion of esteem and confidence. Republican government presupposes the existence of these qualities in a higher degree than any other form."

This is nutso. It has nothing to do with ideology, nothing to do with conservaties vs RINOs, and nothing to do with anything sensible.
It has everything to do with MTG not knowing how to treat people or be reasonable.
Her attack on @NancyMace is totally out of bounds. https://t.co/tQbFaxyFwz

"Your out of your league" - from a member of Congress. To a colleague who was duly elected just as she and 433 others were. And a grammatical error as the topping. Says all you need to know about this poster: Anger & ignorance & intolerance all in one tidy ungrammatical tweet https://t.co/XjYblDomux

From Boebert's bigotry to Greene's belligerence, there are growing calls for House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy to get his House in order.
