Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.) is calling for a full investigation into whether the Francis Scott Key Bridge collapse was an accident.
Posted by Green, „There should be a serious investigation into the horrific tragedy of Maryland's Francis Scott Key Bridge. Was this a deliberate attack or an accident? Rest in peace to the victims, survivors, and families. I pray for you.
A full-scale investigation has already begun. The Secretary of Transportation, the Coast Guard, federal law enforcement and transportation safety agencies are on the scene.
Even if a serious investigation led Greene to propose an investigation into House Republicans, it would simply be impossible because the House Republicans have shown themselves to be dishonest.

There is no cover-up. The cargo ship sent out a distress call, alerting authorities that it was experiencing mechanical problems. A distress call closed the bridge, preventing further casualties. Terrorists do not inform people in advance to save lives.
When an accident or disaster occurs, This country needs someone seriously in charge.
Rep. Greene is not a serious person. Conspiracy theories do not rule him, and Mr. Green has ventured into conspiracy theory territory with his own posts.
In Mr. Trump's party, conspiracy is tolerated to govern, and questioning basic facts is another way to undermine trust in government.
