MTG provides more insight into spat with Lauren Boebert

Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor-Greene gave further insight Sunday into a recent faceoff with Rep. Lauren Boebert that eventually led to MGT calling her GOP colleague “a little bitch.”

Greene told Fox News Sunday she was annoyed that Boebert didn’t tell most of the GOP conference she planned on introducing articles of impeachment against President Biden last week.

She also chided the Colorado congresswoman for not supporting her own impeachment effort against the 80-year-old Democrat.

“But here’s the real issue. I’ve introduced articles of impeachment, and each time I do so, along with my other bills, I communicate with all of my Republican colleagues and ask for support by asking their co-sponsorship because I co-sponsor many other Republican bills,” she explained on Media Buzz with Fox News host Howard Kurtz.

“I had asked her to co-sponsor my articles of impeachment against Joe Biden on the border, and she never responded and apparently refused to do so,” Greene, of Georgia, added.

“Then when she introduced her own and forced them to the floor with a privileged resolution without even having the courage to talk to any other Republican in our conference before doing so except Speaker (Kevin) McCarthy and apparently a few others.”

“Yeah, we had a tense conversation when she confronted me about things I had said about it,” MTG went on to say. “But this is unfortunate that this becomes public on the House floor.”

She also accused Boebert of leaking the conversation, which was caught by C-SPAN cameras, to the press.

The confrontation was first reported on by the Daily Beast Wednesday.

It’s unclear who leaked the conversation, with the Daily Beast only citing two sources who witnessed the angry interaction and another source familiar with the matter.

“I find it unfortunate that Lauren Boebert leaked that conversation that we had to the press,” Greene said on Fox News Sunday. “But once she leaked it out, I had to confirm that that’s in fact, what I said.”

Greene reportedly scolded Boebert over their impeachment attempts.

“I’ve donated to you, I’ve defended you. But you’ve been nothing but a little bitch to me,” Greene reportedly told Boebert. “And you copied my articles of impeachment after I asked you to cosponsor them.”

Boebert responded by shrugging her shoulders and saying, “OK, Marjorie, we’re through,” according to the report.

“We were never together,” Greene reportedly shot back, as Boebert had her back turned.

Boebert leveraged a procedural tool to fast-track a vote on her resolution to impeach Biden against the wishes of McCarthy and other GOP members.

Greene previously introduced articles of impeachment against the president in May, but not with the procedural measure to force a vote. 

Boebert told Fox News host Sean Hannity Thursday she didn’t have time for “spats” with other members of Congress.

“I came here to legislate and to be effective for Coloradans, Coloradans who are suffering from the Democrats’ policy,” she said. “Marjorie is not my enemy. Joe Biden’s policy, the Democrats, that is my enemy that I am combating right now.”
