Marjorie Taylor Greene deleted past social media posts that endorsed fringe conspiracy theories after scrutiny

• GOP Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene removed Facebook posts that showed her support for fringe conspiracy theories, CNN reported.
• The newly-elected congresswoman faced new condemnation this week over her posts claiming mass-shooting are "false flags" to justify gun control and supporting the execution of some democrats.
• There have been calls for her to resign or be removed from office.

GOP Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene has deleted past Facebook posts that supported fringe conspiracy theories and showed support for executing Democrats, CNN reported.

Greene has been condemned for baselessly claiming mass shootings are "false flags" to justify gun control. In October 2017, after a gunman shot at attendees of a Las Vegas music festival, killing 58 people, she suggested gun control activists orchestrated the shooting to promote gun regulations.

"Hey, friends. I've got a question for you. How do you get avid gun owners and people that support the Second Amendment to give up their guns and go along with anti-gun legislation?" Greene said in a video, "Are they trying to terrorize our mindset and change our minds on the Second Amendment?"

She later said the FBI was lying about the investigation but has since walked away from that theory.

Some Democrats have called for the newly-elected congresswoman to be removed from Congress.

"Such advocacy for extremism and sedition not only demands her immediate expulsion from Congress, but it also merits strong and clear condemnation from all of her Republican colleagues," Rep. Jimmy Gomez, a Democrat from California, said Wednesday.

Greene was also condemned after a video resurfaced showing her harassing David Hogg, a survivor of the Parkland school shooting in 2018. Greene was not elected to Congress at that time, called Hogg, then 17, a "coward" while he was on Capitol Hill just weeks after the shooting to advocate for gun control.

On social media, Greene described Hogg as "#littleHitler" and a "bought and paid little pawn."

She also liked a Facebook comment that said the Sandy Hook elementary school shooting was staged. The 2012 shooting killed 27 people, including 20 children.

Two parents of children who died in the shooting, Mark Barden and Nicole Hockley, released a statement critical of Greene's appointment onto the House Education and Labor Committee.

"Having a Sandy Hook and Parkland denier on the House Education and Labor Committee is an attack on any and every family whose loved ones were murdered in mass shootings that have now become fodder for hoaxers...hateful conspiracy theories and suggestions that our childrens' violent deaths never happened have no place in our society, much less the United States Congress," the statement said.

"Assigning her to the Education Committee when she has mocked the killing of little children at Sandy Hook elementary school, when she has mocked the killing of teenagers in high school, at the Marjory Stoneman Douglas high school," House Speaker Nancy Pelosi said. "What could they be thinking? Or is thinking too generous a word for what they might be doing? It's absolutely appalling."

CNN reported that they realized the 2018 and 2019 posts were removed after they saw some of the links saved by the network's KFile team were not available anymore. A Facebook spokesman told the outlet that they did not remove those posts.

Greene's office did not reply to Insider's request for comment at the time of publication.
