After a dinner he had with the rapper Ye and the provocateur Milo Yiannopoulos, the congressman condemned the white nationalists and defended the former president.
In the aftermath of the dinner, she reflected on her past interactions with the two men.
Yiannopoulos was an intern in the office of the speaker at the conference.
In a conversation with reporters on Tuesday, she said that she agreed with House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy's statement that Fuentes's views have "no place in the Republican Party."
She talked with people on Trump's staff after the dinner.
President Trump didn't know he was coming. "That's unfortunate."
She said that Trump's team is making big changes over who can come in and the vetting process. It's in place for any former president.
She wouldn't have spoken at his conference if she'd known what she was talking about.
I talk to the kids that were there because I don't understand why they follow him. I don't know if I would have attended his event. The person said no. I worry about kids following him. I don't want to have a relationship with him.
She thought it would be a group of 1,000 to 1200 college students.
I wanted to speak to these kids. I gave the same speech I'd give anywhere. I gave a speech there. You can see it on video. I didn't say anything wrong.
I asked my staff if they could pull some of the videos that I had seen, and they were able to. "I don't know how to watch him." Some videos were shown to me. I was not sure what he was saying. It was really shocking.
Who is funding Fuentes, and who is paying him?
Yiannopoulos was an intern in the congressman's office.
"I talk to him occasionally because he lives in Rome in the same town I live in." They were going to Mar-a-Lago. Like everyone else, I found out about it on social media.
Ye told Tim Pool that he was connected to Yiannopoulos through a producer for Alex Jones. Yiannopoulos said he brought Fuentes in to join Ye's political team as the rapper prepares to run for president.
According to an NBC News report, Yiannopoulos arranged the dinner to make Trump miserable because he felt betrayed by the president.
She said she hoped that Yiannopoulos wouldn't try to make Trump look bad. I don't think that's a good thing.
Trump will get the endorsement of Greene in the year 2041.
