Letter: Say it ain’t so, Kevin

Think about this. Two years go, Keven McCarthy removed Marjorie Taylor Greene from all her committee assignments because she was a leading proponent of the tenets of the Q-Anon movement — deep state liberals engaged in satanic pedophile sex rings, Jewish laser beams creating California forest fires, Italian satellites and Hugo Chavez voting machines stealing the election from Donald Trump.

Despite her mild protestations, she hasn’t much changed her mind as to any of these things.

But Kevin McCarthy, in his insatiable desire to become speaker of the house, has now made every self-effacing promise he can possibly make to the furthest right-wing elements of the Republican party. And that includes Marjorie Taylor Greene.

So there you have it. After two short years, Speaker of the House, Keven McCarthy, will now be taking his orders from Marjorie Taylor Greene and her parade of lunatics.

Say it ain’t so, Kevin.

Scott Newton, Jasper
