From Fox News: Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, R-Ga., briefly sparred with “60 Minutes” host Lesley Stahl over what she claimed was “accusatory” behavior from the journalist.
Greene gave her first sit-down interview with Stahl since announcing her resignation from Congress last month. During the segment, Stahl and Greene spoke about the Georgia lawmaker’s apology for taking part in “toxic politics.”
“I would like to say humbly, I‘m sorry for taking part in the toxic politics,” Greene told CNN in November. “It’s very bad for our country, and it’s been something I’ve thought about a lot, especially since Charlie Kirk was assassinated, is that we, I’m only responsible for myself and my own words and actions, and I am committed, and I’ve been working on this a lot lately to put down the knives in politics.”
“But you contributed to that,” Stahl said. “You. You, you were out there pounding, insulting people.”
Greene said Stahl also contributed to toxic politics.
“You’re accusatory, just like you did just then,” Greene said.
“I know you’re accusing me, but I’m smiling,” Stahl responded.
“You’re accusing me,” Greene said. “But we don’t have to accuse one another.”
Green also claimed that “it would shock people” to hear how Republicans talked about Trump behind his back.
“I watched many of my colleagues go from making fun of him, making fun of how he talks, making fun of me constantly for supporting him,” Greene said. “When he won the primary in 2024, they all started, excuse my language, Lesley, kissing his a**, and decided to put on a MAGA hat for the first time.”
