Fox News Publishes Scathing Op-Ed Targeting MTG

-

On Wednesday, published an op-ed eviscerating MAGA firebrand Marjorie Taylor Greene (R).

Columnist Liz Peek published “Marjorie Taylor Green is an idiot. She is trying to wreck the GOP” in response to Greene's recent charge to oust Mike Johnson (R-La.)

Johnson has slammed the motion against him as “absurd.” On Tuesday, Rep. Thomas Massie (R-Ky.) became the first Congressional colleague to voice support for Greene's push. (RELATED: Prominent Republican Joins Marjorie Taylor Greene's Effort To Oust Johnson)

The ouster of the popular McCarthy also torched the public's view of the GOP. In May 2023, registered voters were evenly split between approving and disapproving of the . Today, there is a 25-point gap, with 61% disapproval and 36% approving. That will not help win elections. 

The internal squabbles of the party need to stop. If Marjorie Taylor Greene and others want to oppose aid to or the FISA bill, they can vote against it. That's how democracy works. 

Recently, Speaker Johnson attended a meeting with in Mar-a-Lago to address election integrity.

Standing next to Johnson at a news conference at Mar-a-Lago, said, “We're getting along very well with the speaker, and I get along very well with Marjorie. We have a speaker who was voted in, and it was a complicated process. And I think very, it's not, not an easy situation for any speaker.”

On Friday, Trump said Johnson is “doing a very good job.”

“And I'm sure that Marjorie understands that, she's a very good friend of mine. And I know she has a lot of respect for the speaker,” Trump said.

The future of the U.S. is on the line. Former President Donald Trump, who very much wants to kick out of office, knows how dangerous the tumult in the House can be. He recently met with in and gave him an important and well-deserved vote of confidence. “I stand with the speaker,” Trump declared; he also said he thinks Johnson is “doing a very good job – he's doing about as good as you're going to do.” 

The Fox News contributor concluded her public plea to MTG with a short message.

My message for MTG? Borrowing from Hillary Clinton: Get over yourself. The mission today is to elect Donald Trump.
