Marjorie Taylor Greene has said that her 2018 Facebook post was not antisemitic as she didn’t know the Rothschilds were Jewish and never used the phrase “Jewish space lasers”, a conspiracy theory for which the Georgia Republican was widely mocked.
Ms Greene appeared on an episode of Donald Trump Jr’s podcast “Triggered with Don Jr”, and the two discussed her controversial Facebook post which was later deleted.
Some reporter had written an article about the post I had made in 2018 and he titled it “Jewish space later”. That’s how I got labelled with it. But I have never... never even said Jewish,” Ms Greene said.
The comments referred to her lengthy Facebook post five years ago in which she said that deadly wildfires in California at that time were not natural and claimed people have seen “lasers or blue beams of light causing the fire” from space.
