Rep. Adam Kinzinger (R-Ill.) said early Thursday that it was “disappointing by a factor of 1,000” to see Republican colleagues give Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.) a standing ovation after she apologized for her past controversial remarks.
“I don’t like to reveal a ton of conference details, but she stood up and kind of gave a bit of contriteness, but then it pivoted to ‘they’re coming after you next,’” Kinzinger said on CNN’s “New Day,” referring to a closed-door House Republican Conference meeting late Wednesday.
“Obviously I had a huge problem with all of that, but the ‘they,’ being the Democrats, I think if you’re not buying into Jewish space lasers and false flag operations and QAnon stuff, to think that they’re just going to come after you next, I think is way a bridge too far,” he said, adding that it “was disappointing by a factor of 1,000” to see fellow Republicans’ response.
JUST NOW: "I didn't hear an apology personally. "
