Georgia Rep. Greene, criticized for use of antisemitic tropes, cruises to third term

Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, the conservative firebrand who specializes in incendiary political speech and has been criticized for dalliances with antisemitic rhetoric, has been reelected to a third term serving a staunchly Republican district in northwest Georgia.

Greene defeated Democrat Shawn Harris, a retired Army general and farmer.

The race was not expected to be competitive.

Greene has generated a national profile fighting with Democrats, spreading antisemitic conspiracy theories online and even trying to boot her own party’s leadership as she unsuccessfully tried to oust House Speaker Mike Johnson from the job this year.

One person she doesn’t criticize is Donald Trump as she carefully links her brand with his.
