Opinion by Dana Milbank: Republicans follow their new leader, Marjorie Taylor Greene
.” Swalwell was one of several officials targeted a decade ago by a Chinese spy, but no evidence of a sexual relationship came to light.Yet Republicans jumped to Greene’s defense. Chairman Mark Green ruled that Greene’s slander was “not going to be stricken from the record.” He went so far as to suggest the unsubstantiated innuendo was a “statement of fact.
Democrats objected again. This time, finally, Chairman Green silenced her for the rest of the hearing. Chairman Green opened with a bit of Great Replacement theory. “You have not secured our borders, Mr. Secretary, and I believe you’ve done so intentionally,”, saying the administration policy is all about “moving people into the country,” to welcome “illegal aliens” and “settle them into the interior of our country.”
The new speaker has been sampling various backdrops for his public appearances in the Capitol. In Statuary Hall. In the small rotunda outside his office. Near the Will Rogers statue. This week, he led his Republican colleagues on an expedition, out the West side of the Capitol, down the stairs and onto the upper terrace for a celebration of the House GOP’s first 100 days in power.
