QAnon Rep. Sparks Backlash After Calling for 'Price of Blood' to 'Restore America'

QAnon Rep. Sparks Backlash After Calling for 'Price of Blood' to 'Restore America'

Far-right Congresswoman and prominent conspiracy theorist Marjorie Taylor Greene of Georgia has a long-established pattern of promoting violence against her perceived enemies.

In her first months of Congress, Greene was stripped of her committee assignments, partly because she expressed support for the execution of Democratic House Speaker Nancy Pelosi of California on Facebook.


But that reprimand wasn't enough to discourage Greene from continuing to suggest political violence. Greene has suggested shooting volunteers who go door-to-door with vaccine information. She's encouraged her followers to buy AR-15s. She's defended Capitol insurrectionists who beat police officers. She's repeatedly accosted her colleagues on the House floor, forcing one Congresswoman—Cori Bush of Missouri—to change offices to avoid further harassment.

And in a recent appearance with white nationalist and former Trump official Steve Bannon, Greene once again suggested blood be spilt.

Watch below.

Greene said:

"We need a good plan that restores America back to the republic that it was originally founded to be, because our freedoms are so precious, Steve, that we do not want to lose them, and the only way you get freedom back after you've lost it is with the price of blood."

The comments had some wanting to boot her from Congress.





The internet was enraged by the apparent call to violence.



Like all representatives, Greene is up for reelection in 2022.

Jasmine Crockett Has Epic Response After MAGA Rep. Confuses Her With Female Colleague

The House Judiciary Committee hearing, titled "The Southern Poverty Law Center: Manufacturing Hate, Part II," was convened to examine allegations in a federal indictment claiming that the Southern Poverty Law Center secretly paid more than $3 million to informants operating within extremist organizations, including the Ku Klux Klan.

Ted Cruz Gets Hit With Awkward Reminder After Mocking James Talarico For Not Being 'Masculine'

Texas Republican Senator Ted Cruz was swiftly put in his place after attempting to mock Senate candidate James Talarico's masculinity on Fox News Monday night only to be reminded of his own lack of masculinity.

President Donald Trump has said Talarico is “a weird—a weird—candidate,” a line that was quickly incorporated into an advertisement from Paxton, who argued that that Talarico is unfit to represent Texans partly because of his supposed veganism.

MAGA Politicians Get Blunt Factcheck After Trying To Blame Biden For Screwworm Emergency In Texas

Agriculture Secretary Brooke Rollins and Kansas Republican Senator Roger Marshall were called out after blaming a rise in screwworm infections in Texas cattle on former President Joe Biden—even though it was President Donald Trump's administration that cut funding for programs that track the parasite.

Earlier, the Department of Agriculture announced that a case of New World Screwworm—a flesh-eating parasitic fly—has been detected in a three-week-old calf near La Pryor, Texas, about 30 miles from the U.S.-Mexico border. The discovery marks the parasite's arrival in the U.S. after it spread northward through Central America and Mexico over recent years.
