Marjorie Taylor Greene landed herself in the headlines yet again following a testy exchange with a reporter on July 20. Greene claimed that a question about the COVID-19 vaccine somehow violated her civil rights.In a press conference broadcast on CSPAN, CBS reporter Aaron Navarro cited the current rise in US COVID-19 cases of the so-called Delta Variant, a mutated form of the virus more easily spread from person to person.
Navarro cited Louisiana Congressman Steve Scalise, a Republican, as an example of someone showing leadership by encouraging his constituents to get vaccinated.
Navarro asked if Greene herself had received the vaccine, and if she would encourage people living in her district to do the same.Related: Marjorie Taylor Greene.

Rights group says LGBT campaigners trying to revoke its independent status have 'wrong target'
LGBT organisations, including Stonewall, claim the Equality and Human Rights Commission (EHRC) is working to remove legal protections for trans people.They have presented a 19-page submission to the UN asking for the independent status of the body to be reviewed.But EHRC chief executive Marcial Boo said: "Stonewall and other critics are aiming at the wrong target."The LGBT groups criticised the EHRC's recent intervention in the Scottish government's bid to reform the Gender Recognition Act (GRA) and its response to the consultation on banning conversion therapy in England and Wales.Scottish government ministers have tabled proposals to make it easier for people to change their legally recognised gender, with a Bill expected at Holyrood this year.But the EHRC had recommended "further consideration is needed before any change to the law should be made".
