GOP Rep. Slams Marjorie Taylor Greene's 'Beyond Reprehensible' Holocaust Remarks
HuffPost
Michigan's Peter Meijer said his colleague's rhetoric "amps up and plays into" antisemitism.
Rep. Peter Meijer (R-Mich.) on Sunday strongly condemned Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.) for comparing congressional mask mandates to the violence Nazis inflicted during the Holocaust. “It’s beyond reprehensible,” Meijer said of his far-right colleague on CNN’s “State Of The Union” with host Dana Bash. “I don’t even have words to describe how disappointing it is to see this hyperbolic speech that, frankly, amps up and plays into a lot of the antisemitism that we have been seeing in our society today.” He referred to a recent spike in antisemitic attacks across the country, which come after Israel’s bombardment of Gaza over the past two weeks.More Related News
