It’s never a dull moment with the Republican Party, that’s for sure. Whether it’s Donald Trump, Ron DeSantis, or Lauren Boebert there’ always someone making a headline and now, of course, it’s Georgia congresswoman and Trump’s favorite protégé, Marjorie Greene.

AJ McDougall with The Daily Beast writes:

“In what has proved to be a banner few weeks for Republicans committing unforced errors while questioning witnesses, Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) exclaimed in a Tuesday meeting of the House Oversight Committee that she didn’t want her staff “educated” by anyone, least of all experts. Interrogating Rochelle Walensky about the COVID-19 pandemic, Greene challenged the outgoing CDC director about what job she planned to take next, asking if it would be “on the board of either Pfizer or Moderna.”…”

So she doesn’t want her staff educated on these issues? Even when it comes to something as important as covid and the policies to address it as necessary?

Unfortunately, we can’t exactly be surprised can we? The Republicans will be nothing if not predictable.

For the Republican Party, facts are certainly high on their list of inconveniences. They’re something to simply be ignored or dismissed. Of course…
