Marjorie Taylor Greene, House candidate who advanced QAnon theory about Rothschilds and Soros, wins primary in Georgia

Marjorie Taylor Greene, a Georgia congressional candidate who has advanced conspiracy theories that have veered into anti-Semitism, easily won a runoff primary election Tuesday, making it likely that she will join Congress next year.

Greene has promoted the QAnon conspiracy theory, a complex narrative about a group of powerful people working to bring down President Trump who also run an international child sex trafficking ring. Critics say its focus on Jewish figures, especially the billionaire political donor George Soros, is anti-Semitic.

Jewish Insider uncovered a 2018 posting on a QAnon website signed by a Marjorie Greene that accused Soros and the Rothschild family of being involved in the conspiracy.

Greene’s primary win in a heavily Republican district means she is almost certain to join Congress this fall. Her closest opponent was also a right-wing Republican, but Greene received the backing of President Donald Trump.
