During an interview with Fox News’ Tucker Carlson on Wednesday, infamous far-right, pro-QAnon Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) said that her congressional colleagues are “unqualified” to be in Congress and suggested that House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy is a gay lover of right-wing pollster Frank Luntz.
The interview with Greene, who was stripped of her House committee assignments shortly after taking office over past social media endorsing of the assassination of prominent Democrats, went off the rails right from the start:
“When I got to Congress, I found out … here’s why the business — it’s a business, that’s what Congress is, it runs the country — this is why this business is failing … because most of the people there are not qualified to be there,” she said.
Then she and Carlson joking speculated that House Speaker Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) might be in a homosexual affair with Frank Luntz, a longtime Republican pollster who has been critical of former President Donald Trump. “I was more curious, like, who gets the top bunk and who gets the bottom bunk,” she said in response to Carlson saying, “Were you shocked to learn they share a toothbrush or are roommates or whatever?”

Tucker: Were you shocked to learn they share a toothbrush or are roommates or whatever?
Greene: I was more curious, like, who gets the top bunk and who gets the bottom bunk.
Tucker: Do we have any clarity on that?
Greene: Somebody should find out, right?
