Freedom Caucus takes key vote on Marjorie Taylor Greene’s future

It’s not yet clear whether the conservative group will formally eject her, but people familiar with the matter pointed to a consensus against her.

House Freedom Caucus members took a momentous vote Friday on Marjorie Taylor Greene’s future with the group, according to three people familiar with the matter — but it’s not yet clear whether she’s been officially ejected.

The right-flank group took up Greene’s status amid an internal push, first reported by POLITICO, to consider purging members who are inactive or at odds with the Freedom Caucus. Greene’s close alliance with Speaker Kevin McCarthy, and her accompanying criticism of colleagues in the group, has put her on the opposite side of a bloc that made its name opposing GOP leadership.

While her formal status in the conservative group remains in limbo, the 8 a.m. Friday vote — which sources said ended with a consensus against her — points to, at least, continued strong anti-Greene sentiment.

By "purging" members, the caucus gets smaller and loses influence.

Each Rep is there to represent the constituents of his or her District, not blindly serve a narrow-minded idealogic cult of non-constituents.

On the other side of that, the purpose of the caucus is conservative orthodoxy. A rabble-rouser against that orthodoxy is an effective tool of their opponents.

   It's obvious to anyone that watched the McCarthy coronation that she has little to do with Conservatism and more to do with Trumpism.  Her values do not align with the goals of the Freedom Caucus at all.

That's very likely right.
