Marjorie Taylor Greene Calls for Vaccine Investigations, Eyes Matt Gaetz as Potential Attorney General
Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) has expressed her belief that former Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-FL) would lead investigations into vaccine-related “crimes against humanity” if appointed as Attorney General under a potential Donald Trump administration.
During a House Oversight Committee hearing on pandemic preparedness, Greene criticized the federal government’s handling of the COVID-19 pandemic and vaccine policies. She accused officials of misusing taxpayer funds to create dangerous viruses, claiming, “The American people’s hard-earned tax dollars were used to create viruses that could be unleashed on the world, as COVID-19 was.”
Greene also took aim at Dr. Anthony Fauci, accusing him of misleading the public during the pandemic. “Dr. Fauci lied to the American people, abusing his powerful, taxpayer-funded position,” she asserted. “He lied, and many, many people died.”
The congresswoman continued by criticizing vaccine mandates, saying they were forced upon Americans to maintain employment, attend school, and participate in daily life. “I never took the COVID vaccine, nor will I, and I’m so glad I didn’t,” Greene said.
Expanding her critique, Greene falsely linked vaccines to a range of health issues, including autism and neurological problems in children. She argued that addressing future pandemics requires acknowledging the “crimes against humanity” she claims occurred during the last one.
“Those who perpetuated and continue to perpetuate these crimes need to be prosecuted,” Greene stated. “I’m pretty sure our next attorney general will do that, and I look forward to seeing it happen.”
Greene’s remarks align with her longstanding skepticism toward vaccines and public health measures during the pandemic. Her comments reflect ongoing debates within the Republican Party about public health policy, vaccine safety, and government accountability. Whether such investigations would materialize under a future administration remains speculative.
