Marjorie Greene Walks Out After MAJOR Meltdown

TYT Investigates
7 Feb 2024

MAGA Republican Marjorie Taylor Greene has a complete meltdown at a House Oversight Committee. MTG is angered by Reps. Jamie Raskin and Robert Garcia asking her question about her ludicrous thoughts on gun laws and police brutality, and she cries about them being unfair to her and Donald Trump. MTG throws a fit and walks out of the hearing in embarrassment.

[pipistrelle]

How does anyone stand that voice?

[raison de arizona]

1) Republicans strategically scheduled a vote while a Democrat was undergoing surgery so he’d be absent

2) Democrat rushes from the hospital to go vote, causing Republicans to fail

3) Greene says there was a conspiracy by Democrats “hiding” members to “throw us off”

Greene: Democrats hid one of their members trying to throw us off on the numbers

Senator Pete Wilson, Republican of California, provided a note of drama in a tension-filled evening in the Capitol as he left his hospital bed in order to cast his vote for President Reagan's 1986 budget.

Senator Wilson, 51 years old, who underwent an emergency appendectomy Wednesday, arrived at the Capitol this morning in an ambulance from Bethesda Naval Hospital in suburban Maryland.

He entered the Senate chamber in a wheelchair at 1:32 A.M. wearing a brown bathrobe and pajamas. Turning to his colleagues, he asked, ''What is the question?''

Senators who had been waiting nearly an hour for his arrival gave him a standing ovation as he raised his hand to seek recognition. He was called upon and voted ''Aye.''

Tension in the Senate chamber had been palpable as senators rambled on with rhetorical summations of the budget debate awaiting Mr. Wilson's arrival. Outside the chamber, on a second-floor balcony overlooking the north side of the Capitol, a knot of senators and staff broke into cheers of applause when the ambulance rolled up to the steps and a stretcher bearing Mr. Wilson was lifted outside.

''Way to go Pete,'' several colleagues hollered as Mr. Wilson, looking pale and drawn, as Mr. Wilson's stretcher was rolled up a ramp to a side entrance of the Capitol. Mr. Wilson was then transferred to a wheelchair with an intravenous tube hanging from the side and was taken to the Senate Republican cloakroom to await the final vote.

Fun fact:

It seems it had been mostly Democrats that needed the emergency infusion of Congress members for critical votes.

12 Congressmen Who Risked Their Health to Vote

Al Green leaves hospital to cast vote against Alejandro Mayorkas impeachment

https://www.bbc.com/news/world-us-canada-68228938

A Democratic lawmaker from Texas left the hospital briefly to cast a crucial vote against the impeachment of the homeland security secretary.

Al Green surprised House members when he entered the chamber in a wheelchair while wearing hospital scrubs.

The 76-year-old's trip from the emergency room, where he was having abdominal surgery, proved decisive.

House Republicans ultimately failed to impeach Alejandro Mayorkas with the final tally at 216-214.

Blam!

Rep. Tom McClintock responds to Marjorie Taylor Greene saying that he needs to “read the room” because “he’s failing his oath of office.”

McClintock: “Instead of reading the room, I’d suggest that maybe she read the Constitution that she took an oath to support and defend.”

She’s been mocked for pointing at copy with her finger while reading it. Apparently this technique used in primary grades. (Not at my school.)

Marjorie Taylor Greene at COVID vaccine hearing: "I'm not a doctor, but I have a PhD in recognizing bullshit when I hear it."

She then claimed that hundreds of thousands of Americans died from the Covid Vaccine

[bill_g]

Well Marge - publish the names of those hundreds of thousands of dead people.

[sugar magnolia]

"These reports came from people. People who died."

That's some trick you stupid fucknut.

My first words after that (assuming she shuts up) would be something to the effect; "I am more than willing to concede you have a PhD in bullshit."

[Slim Cognito]

[AndyinPA]

Well, I'm glad to see that those reports came from people, some of them dead, but whatever.

This brick-stupid anti-vax bullshit is obscene in the face of the latest measles outbreak.

Perna is in the red sweatshirt.

Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene Introduces the Matthew Lawrence Perna Act of 2024

The Matthew Lawrence Perna Act enacts several essential reforms, including:

Prohibition of Detention for Nonviolent Political Protesters: This bill bars the unjust detention of nonviolent political protesters and allows for civil action against any violations.

Matthew Perna can be seen in the video below in the red sweatshirt (video complied by @the_silentkoala)

We clearly have a different definition of nonviolent! #WhoElectsThesePeople

Matthew Perna had pleaded guilty to the #January6th offenses, before he committed suicide, so I don't condone MTG exploiting his death in a election year to fundraise off of him.

Capitol rioter awaiting sentencing dies by suicide, coroner says
Matthew Perna's “community (which he loved), his country, and the justice system killed his spirit and his zest for life,” his family said in an obituary.

It's based on the myth of "political protest" and "unjust." Of course, it was not a mere protest, but she's taken to calling any peaceful protest in DC an "insurrection."

Do we even have political "prisoners" in this country? Is that a crime or a statute? Would that include the mysterious people who snatched people off the street in Portland - people who were just walking around...is MTG defending those folks?

technically, Michael Cohen could be considered a "political prisoner" considering he was re-jailed for refusing to not publish a book about donnie dookiepants
