House candidate Marjorie Taylor Greene blasted House Speaker Nancy Pelosi during her acceptance speech after winning a Republican primary election in Georgia.
Greene called Pelosi a "b*tch" before vowing to have her removed from Congress following her victory against John Cowan to become the GOP nominee for Georgia's 14th Congressional District.
"She's a hypocrite," Greene said of the House speaker.
"She's anti-American. And we’re going to kick that bitch out of Congress," she promised.
Greene also took aim at various Republican leaders in Congress.
Due to Greene's affiliation with Qanon, several top Republicans denied her candidacy.

GOP leaders such as Whip Steve Scalise withdrew their endorsements because of the videos of Greene.
"The GOP establishment, the media, & the radical left, spent months & millions of dollars attacking me," Greene tweeted after her win.
"Tonight, the people of Georgia stood up & said that we will not be intimidated or believe those lies."
