Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene has sparked controversy with her recent assertion on HBO's Real Time With Bill Maher that extraterrestrial beings are demons, citing her Bible-believing Christian faith. The Georgia representative made this statement while discussing the possibility of aliens being responsible for unidentified flying objects (UFOs) or "demons" in a way that aligns with some senior US military officials' theories.
During the conversation, Greene explained that as a devout Christian, she believes these entities could be fallen angels. This perspective raises questions about her stance on conspiracy theories and antisemitism, particularly given her previous social media posts and comments on Jewish groups, such as the Rothschild banking dynasty.
Greene initially stated that she was unaware of the Jewish heritage of key figures in the anti-Semitic space lasers conspiracy theory, which she had promoted in 2018. However, when confronted by Maher about his comment that "Rothschild" is often synonymous with "Jewish," Greene acknowledged her lack of knowledge on the matter.
The exchange has highlighted the ideological gap between Rep. Greene and some of her newfound Democratic fans, who have taken notice of her increasingly moderate views on various issues, including healthcare and the handling of sensitive documents related to convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein.
Maher's sharp-tongued response to Greene's assertion about demons being extraterrestrial beings has left many questioning her views on conspiracy theories and antisemitism. As a congresswoman who has avoided directly criticizing former President Donald Trump himself, Greene's stance on these issues may further exacerbate the perception that she is willing to walk a fine line between right-wing and centrist stances.
The discussion highlights the complex nature of Rep. Greene's views on conspiracy theories and her faith, raising questions about her commitment to her constituents' values and how her perspectives will shape her future legislative decisions.

and I'm literally shook rn... like I dont even know what to think anymore 
Rep Greene is all about believing extraterrestrial beings are demons lol wut even? 
And now its coming to light that she has some shady views on Jews too 
like come on congresswoman, do we really need another controversy? 
I'm trying to be open-minded and all but this is just too much for me 
i know she's a bible-believer and all but come on this is crazy talk 
and now ppl are questioning her views on conspiracy theories and antisemitism ?? 
like didnt she already get in trouble for those things before ??? 
i'm so confused about what's going on with her 
... Marjorie Taylor Greene thinks demons are aliens? Like, what even is that? 
And to think she's a congresswoman who's supposed to be representing the people 
... It's like, don't get me wrong, I'm all for questioning things and exploring new ideas, but this just feels so far out there 
. And let's not forget about her history with conspiracy theories and antisemitism 
. I mean, I get that people can have different opinions and stuff, but when it comes to certain groups, especially the ones she's been critical of, it feels like there's some... let's just say "growing pains" 
.
I'm not sure what's more concerning, Rep. Taylor Greene's assertion that aliens are demons or her lack of knowledge about the Jewish heritage of key figures in the anti-Semitic space lasers conspiracy theory

She's gotta walk a fine line between being true to herself and representing the people she serves, you feel? 
It's like, on one hand, we get that she's not afraid to speak her mind and stand up for what she believes in. That's actually kinda admirable... 
... but then again, I thought she was all about being pro-Israel and stuff? 
But on the other hand, I've seen her tweet about how she's trying to be more moderate and inclusive... it's like, what's up with that? 
Is she just trying to appease people or does she actually care? 
I'm like totally confused by Marjorie Taylor Greene's latest comments 
That's just outta this world (pun intended) 
. It's like, can't we just agree to disagree on some things? 
Anyway, I guess this whole thing is gonna be a major storyline for her next election cycle
