The far-right Georgia congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene is
ungovernable and should be known as “Moscow Marjorie”, said a former
Republican colleague in the US House, accusing Greene of “getting her
talking points from the Kremlin” when opposing new federal aid for
Ukraine.

“My experience with Marjorie is people have talked to her about not
filing articles of impeachment on President Biden before he was sworn
into office, not filing articles of impeachment that were groundless
based on other individuals in the Biden administration,” Ken Buck, a
Colorado rightwinger who left Congress last month, told CNN.

“She was never moved by that. She was always focused on her social
media account. And ‘Moscow Marjorie’ is focused now on this Ukraine
issue and getting her talking points from the Kremlin and making sure
she is popular and she is getting a lot of coverage.”

Congress returned Monday after a spring recess. Mike Johnson, the
Republican House speaker, must govern with a tiny majority and a
restive right. Just before the recess, Greene filed a motion to
vacate, a means to remove Johnson from his role.
