ROME, GEORGIA: During a recent appearance on Steve Bannon's podcast, Rep Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga) criticized Fox News after one of its columnists called her "an idiot" who is trying to "wreck the GOP."

Rep Greene expressed her discontent with the network's headline, stating, “Fox News called me an idiot. That was their headline. They called me an idiot. But what I've done is expose what was already happening in the dark."



 

What prompted Marjorie Taylor Greene to fire back at Fox News?

Rep Greene was alluding to an op-ed that was posted on FoxNews.com last month by Liz Peek, a contributor, who claimed that Greene is not good for the Republican party, accusing her of “bombastic self-serving showmanship.”

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

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

Rep Greene has expressed her intention to pursue the removal of House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.) based on several concerns, one of which is his proposal to evaluate foreign aid, according to The Hill.
