The messy feud between two of MAGA worlds biggest stars burst into public view on Wednesday, when Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) called Rep. Lauren Boebert (R-CO) a little bitch to her face on the floor of the U.S. House of Representatives.
The angry exchange came as the two lawmakers have been swiping at each other over their competing resolutions to impeach President Joe Biden. But tensions came to a head on Wednesday after Boebert leveraged a procedural tool to force a vote on her own impeachment resolution within daysundercutting Greene, who had offered her own resolution, but not with the procedural advantages of forcing a vote.
Greene apparently cursed out Boebert while the House was voting Wednesday afternoon, as the two spoke in a center aisle of the House floor; part of their interaction was captured on C-SPANs cameras.
According to two sources that saw the exchange and a third familiar with the matter, the back and forth began when Boebert approached Greenethen seated in the chamberand confronted her over statements you made about me publicly. All three of the sources said Greene called Boebert a "bitch." One of the sources said Greene called her "a little bitch."

If anyone spat on Boebert, especially her face, she would have them arrested in a heartbeat.

We should always curtsey and defer to our "betters." At least that is how the social order dictates life in their bizarre neo-medieval world.

The original post word "bitch" is actually the sexist slur, as it refers especially to us females. Skank goes for anybody.
