ATLANTA, GEORGIA: Rep Marjorie Taylor Greene posted on social media platform X on Tuesday, July 23, and claimed that Vice President Kamala Harris, who is now the presumptive Democratic presidential nominee, is a 'DEI hire', as per Raw Story.
Notably, the acronym 'DEI', which stands for diversity, equity, and inclusion, is frequently the subject of business and governmental initiatives. However, it has also come to be seen as a racist slur on the right and an aberration.

Notably, Greene's vehement anti-LGBTQ remarks and her prior acceptance of QAnon conspiracy theories have drawn criticism on several occasions.
Greene's post was quickly overshadowed by vehement reactions to her statements, which came amid reports that House GOP leadership is quietly pleading with members not to make racially offensive remarks about Harris.
Earlier, MTG also faced criticism when she demanded the resignation of Secret Service Director Kimberly Cheatle following the July 13 assassination attempt on former president Donald Trump.
She wrote on X, "I’ve never seen a more incompetent woman in my life. Cheatle should have resigned. Instead, she’s covering it all up, refusing to answer questions and hand over information. She may be more than incompetent. She may be complicit."

Cheatle should have resigned.

She may be complicit.
