CONTROVERSIAL congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene often hits the headlines for all the wrong reasons.
The staunch Republican regularly uses her voice as a representative for Georgia’s 14th congressional district to express her unwavering support for Donald Trump.
Who are Marjorie Taylor Greene’s children?
Marjorie Taylor Greene, who was elected in November 2020, has three children with her husband, Perry.
The construction mogul filed for divorce from the politician on September 27, 2022, saying the marriage is “irretrievably broken”.
The couple share three children together; Lauren, Taylor and Derek.
In May 2020 she posted a picture on Facebook with her son, Derek, saying: “Thankful to have my son, Derek, helping me out on the campaign trail! And our dog, Snickers, too!”
A few months later she put up a smiley snap with “beautiful daughter” Lauren.
Little information is available on her adult children, but the far-right conspiracy theorist believes the best part of her life is being a mother.
In the wake of the landmark Supreme Court decision to overturn Roe v Wade, she insensitively tweeted: “The greatest choice a woman can make is becoming a mother.”
Greene resided for many years in Alpharetta, Georgia, with Perry before the family moved to Rome, Georgia.
Greene has had a colored political past, supporting wacky conspiracy theories and leading controversy.
The mum has also openly supported disproven far-right conspiracy theories such as QAnon, PizzaGate and speculation surrounding 9/11.
Greene was also a supporter of overturning President Donald Trump’s loss to President Biden in 2020.
She objected to Biden’s win despite federal agencies overseeing election security and promising it was the most secure ballot in American history.
Did Marjorie Taylor Greene try to impeach President Biden?
Greene filed articles of impeachment against Biden the day after his inauguration, alleging abuse of power.
This came after she falsely claimed that Trump was elected in a landslide win and the election had been stolen from him.
The House of Representatives voted to remove Greene from all committee roles in response to incendiary and violent statements that she had made.
Eleven Republicans joined the unanimous Democrats in that vote on February 4, 2021.
Greene’s comments have gotten her in trouble outside of the political landscape before as well.
Her Twitter account was locked for 12 hours on January 17, 2021 for multiple violations of our civic integrity policy.
Twitter banned her around the same time it banned thousands of other QAnon accounts.
Social media sites like Facebook and Twitter have made it a policy now to ban people, even politicians for false statements like hers.
While in office, Greene is barred from blocking anyone on either Twitter or other social media.
On Monday, August 9, 2021, Greene tweeted that the Food and Drug Administration “should not approve the Covid vaccines”.
She also claimed the vaccines were “failing” and that they were ineffective at reducing the virus’s spread.
In response, Twitter labeled the tweet as misleading and temporarily blocked her account.
In the past, Greene was suspended from Twitter for tweeting at Trump supporters to “mobilize” due to “attacks on their liberties”.
Greene released a statement about her suspension blaming the “big tech” for silencing elected officials.
