Rep. GOP firebrand. Marjorie Taylor Greene fumed over Lauren Boebert’s “sniffing, groping” while insulting Republicans who voted against her resolution to impeach Rep. Rashida Tlaib.
Taylor Greene slams Rep. Chip Roy (R-Tx.) — who defended his vote against the resolution of censure — went on to lash out at Boebert (R-Col.), with whom he has tangled in the past including a reported bathroom shouting match .
“You voted to kick me out of the freedom caucus, but keep CNN candidate Ken Buck and grope Lauren Boebert and you voted with Democrats to protect Tlaib Terrorists,” Greene wrote on X.
“You hate Trump, endorse the election of Biden, and don’t care about the wronged J6 defendants.”
Boebert had voted in favor of Greene’s impeachment resolution against Tlaib (D-Mich.), but Greene still managed to continue his longtime beef with the self-described “eccentric” representative.
In all, 23 Republicans joined a solid bloc of 199 Democrats in rejecting Greene’s move.
The resolution accused Tlaib of “leading a rebellion” by taking part in pro-Palestinian protests at the US Capitol last month where protesters called for a ceasefire.

Tlaib, a Palestinian-American and member of the so-called “Squad,” has been an outspoken critic of Israel’s efforts to eliminate Hamas terrorist activities in the Gaza Strip.
In September, Boebert, 36, was caught on camera vaping and groping Quinn Gallagher, co-owner of the Aspen bar Democrat, during a screening of “Beetlejuice.” He had split with Gallagher because he was a Democrat.
He shrugged from Greene’s broadside.
“I don’t have time for that,” replied Boebert in response, every journalist. “Does that secure our borders? Does that bring down inflation? Does that lower gas prices? Does that lower retail prices?”
“I don’t mind then. Does it affect public lands in Colorado’s third district?”
Greene (R-Ga.) was fired from the conservative House Freedom Caucus over the summer after he allegedly called Boebert a “little b—h” while spitting on the House floor.

“He’s really been a mean little boy to me,” Greene later told Semafor, doubling down.
Although the two women are cut from the same cloth as outspoken gun lovers, MAGA-aligned, conservatives in Congress, the pair have long been at loggerheads.
Earlier this year during a speaker flap, for example, Greene and Boebert did it in the ladies’ room.
“The lady from Georgia came and started being mean about it, and nobody else hated it. Everyone was very professional,” Boebert later recounted.

Boebert, who has a rap sheet, recently sought to turn a page on the “Beetlejuice” controversy.
“I’m too eccentric. I am very famous for my animated personality. Maybe too bold a personality,” the comedian told One America News Network in September.
During the third quarter that ran from July to September, Boebert’s campaign raised $853,840, according to FEC filings. His campaign is listed with $1,434,675 cash on hand.
His Democratic rival, Adam Frisch, claimed to have raised $3.4 million.
Frisch, 56, narrowly lost to Boebert with 546 votes.

Like Boebert, Roy also deflected Greene’s attacks.
“Tell him to go chase the so-called Jewish space lasers if he wants to spend time on that kind of thing,” he told reporters.
Meanwhile, Greene has publicly stated she is running to be former President Donald Trump’s running mate in the 2024 election cycle.
His jab at Rep. Ken Buck (R-Col.) came out after his announcement this week that he would not run for re-election.
