Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) has been thrown out of the far-right House Freedom Caucus. But according to the Wall Street Journal, she is defiant — and even publicly saying it's a good thing for her.

“I think I enjoy being a free agent a lot better,” Greene told reporters, adding that while she agreed with the Freedom Caucus ideologically, she is “interested in getting accomplishments done, not doing things just to disrupt and fight leadership. And that’s a major difference.”

Notably, while Greene is saying she is happy about the expulsion now, her behavior over the previous few days suggests otherwise. She told reporters earlier this week she had not been told anything about being ousted from the Freedom Caucus, but other reports suggested she was actually avoiding calls from other members of the Freedom Caucus so that they wouldn't be able to deliver the news to her and make it official.
