Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene of Georgia compared Democrats to Nazis during a Thursday rally in her state.

She said the media had spent four years "calling Republicans Nazis" and said the word "Nazi" was a "mean, nasty dirty word."

A few seconds later, she said: "You know, Nazis were the National Socialist party. Just like the Democrats are now a national socialist party."

Watch her speak here:

Earlier this week, she compared the identification badges a local grocery store was using to show its employees were vaccinated for COVID-19 to the yellow stars that Nazis forced Jews to wear.

Before that, earlier this month she similarly evoked the Holocaust to criticize House mask-wearing requirements.

Her comments drew widespread condemnation, including from the GOP House leadership.
