Pro-Trump Congressman Creepily Praised QAnon Rep's Press Conference and Twitter Just Threw up a Little

Pro-Trump Congressman Creepily Praised QAnon Rep's Press Conference and Twitter Just Threw up a Little
Fox News // Fox News

The Democratic-led House of Representatives voted on Thursday to remove Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) from her committee assignments on the House Committee on Education and Labor, as well as the House Budget Committee.

The move came after Greene prompted ire for her prior support of deranged conspiracy theories, especially the QAnon conspiracy theory, which hinges on the delusion that former President Donald Trump was sent to expose a covert network of satanic cannibal pedophiles secretly controlling the United States government. What's more, before her election, Greene appeared to endorse the execution of her now-colleagues.


The vast majority of House Republicans railed against the accountability measure while distancing themselves from Greene's comments, but in the end, House Democrats unanimously voted to remove her from the committees and 11 House Republicans joined them.

Greene held a press conference on Friday, where she claimed that she'd been "freed" by her release from committees because the "tyrannical" Democrats would have silenced her anyway.

After berating journalists who asked her questions, Greene left the stage.

That's when the virulently pro-Trump Congressman Matt Gaetz (R-FL) issued some creepy words of praise for the Congresswoman on Fox News.

Watch below.

Gaetz told Outnumbered host Harris Faulkner:

"That was so good I almost had to smoke a cigarette afterwards."

The post-coital implication had Twitter really grossed out.







People noticed that even Faulkner seemed taken aback by the sleaziness of the comment.



Gaetz recently offered to resign his congressional seat to defend Trump in his impeachment trial—a move that was met with widespread support from his critics.

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

Late-night host Stephen Colbert had a somber message for Americans as he addressed the assassination of far-right activist Charlie Kirk, stressing that "political violence only leads to more political violence."

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.
