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.

Stephen Colbert Makes Somber Plea To Americans In Wake Of Charlie Kirk's Death

Kirk died after an unidentified gunman shot him in the neck as he—ironically enough—mocked victims of gun violence at an event in Utah Valley State University. Kirk's murder has galvanized the far-right, with President Donald Trump and his surrogates claiming without evidence that rhetoric from Democrats is responsible for Kirk's death.

TikToker Hilariously Calls Out Target After Champion Pants Feature Awkwardly-Placed Front Pleat

Sometimes you can just tell when something was designed *for* women, but was not actually designed *by* women.

Take, for instance, the new pleated pants available at Target from the Champion clothing line. While there's nothing wrong with pleated pants and they certainly have a suitable spot in the workplace, the latest rendition of Champion pleated pants are, shall we say, NSFW.

Woman Goes Viral After Revealing How Her Obsession With Matcha Landed Her In The Hospital

Let's be honest: Too much of anything isn't good for us. It's all about the balance!

But the media and social media trends have taught us that certain things are really good for us, encouraging us to be like the "very mindful and very demure" girls and take care of ourselves. One such example is drinking more matcha, especially if you really like coffee or think you have a caffeine addiction.
