It is time to ban this TERRORIST from the Capitol

[Stinky The Clown]

Rep. Greene aggressively confronts Rep. Ocasio-Cortez, causing New York congresswoman to raise security concerns

Republican Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene aggressively confronted Democratic Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez on Wednesday and falsely accused her of supporting “terrorists,” leading the New York congresswoman’s office to call on leadership to ensure that Congress remains “a safe, civil place for all Members and staff.”

Two Washington Post reporters witnessed Ocasio-Cortez (N.Y.) exit the House chamber late Wednesday afternoon ahead of Greene (Ga.), who shouted “Hey Alexandria” twice in an effort to get her attention. When Ocasio-Cortez did not stop walking, Greene picked up her pace and began shouting at her and asking why she supports antifa, a loosely knit group of far-left activists, and Black Lives Matter, falsely labeling them “terrorist” groups. Greene also shouted that Ocasio-Cortez was failing to defend her “radical socialist” beliefs by declining to publicly debate the freshman from Georgia. “You don’t care about the American people,” Greene shouted. “Why do you support terrorists and antifa?”

Ocasio-Cortez did not stop to answer Greene, only turning around once and throwing her hands in the air in an exasperated motion. The two reporters were not close enough to hear what the New York congresswoman said, and her office declined to discuss her specific response.

“Representative Greene tried to begin an argument with Congresswoman Ocasio-Cortez and when Rep. Ocasio-Cortez tried to walk away, Congresswoman Greene began screaming and called Rep. Ocasio-Cortez a terrorist sympathizer,” Ocasio-Cortez spokeswoman Lauren Hitt said in a statement. “We hope leadership and the Sergeant at Arms will take real steps to make Congress a safe, civil place for all Members and staff — especially as many offices are discussing reopening. One Member has already been forced to relocate her office due to Congresswoman Greene’s attacks.”

1. AOC not wanting to debate greene

Is the same reason grown adults don’t debate bedtimes with toddlers...

[Rebl2]

10. Why in

the world would she debate greene. That just gives that 🤬 the attention she wants.

[mikeysnot]

26. Exactly my point.

Why. There is no reason.

[Phoenix61]

2. At some point she's going to screw up and put her hands

on someone and end up with a restraining on her. Then she can figure out how to go to work.

[PortTack]

7. ☝️☝️☝️☝️☝️

[bullwinkle428]

3. I'm quite certain she had her "videographer" follow closely behind, racking up

footage for her campaign commercial next year.

[Lovie777]

4. She seems obsess with AOC . .

[Deuxcents]

5. MTG is a stalker

She followed n harassed the Parkland kid by trying to get a reaction on guns. Now she’s following AOC for some kind of reaction. The minority leadership is too busy expelling Liz Cheney to notice.

[PatSeg]

19. Yes, that is what came to mind for me

She seems to have a history of this sort of thing. Not very dignified for a member of congress. These freaks make a mockery of our institutions. They've turned the seat of our government into a reality TV show stage, much like Trump did to our White House. They defile and contaminate everything they touch.

[pandr32]

28. +1

[PatSeg]

39. I remember reading Joe Biden's autobiography

in 2008 and he talked about how in awe he was entering the senate chamber. He had great reverence for our Capitol, like it was a cathedral to democracy. For him it was a very humbling experience and that is apparent today in the White House as well.

These clowns like Greene, Boebert, and Gaetz act like it is just an opportunity. They have no real sense of history and those who came before them. They defile everything they touch, nothing is sacred.

[pandr32]

41. This makes me feel bad for Biden

He was in the Senate when the institution worked as intended--somewhat. He knows how it is meant to function and serve the American people. That is already gone.
At least we have decency in the White House again.

[PatSeg]

47. And hopefully decency and decorum

will return to the senate and the House some day.

[pandr32]

49. I hope the same

[Initech]

50. And someone whose brain has been rotted by Alex Jones and Infowars garbage.

Infowars is tainting our country and our collective consciousness. Alex Jones is an inherent danger to society, he's a terrorist who must be stopped.

[Wicked Blue]

6. Greene should undergo a psychiatric evaluation

asap

before she injures someone

Q is she carrying a gun in the Capitol?

[Treefrog]

8. Almost exactly what she did with David Hogg.

Even used the same words. She seems unbalanced, and she also needs new material.

[Moostache]

29. Don't be fooled...that IS the script

There is no actual attempt to seek or gain understanding or have an actual debate with her.
She is the embodiment of the present day Republican Party.

I won't be even the smallest bit surprised next month when the GQP "leaders" re-install her to either committee assignments or an actual leadership role.

The bottom of the barrel has many crevasses to plumb before it is exhausted.

[Treefrog]

38. You're probably right.

God, how do they even look in the mirror? I was never good at lying, and I hated to do it. Always had a great attendance record at school and rarely missed work because I just hated to lie. OF course, I DID on occasion, but the guilt would eat me up lol. I could never tell the world-endangering lies these cretins do daily.

[Initech]

9. Why do I feel like Greene's tenure in Congress will end with her climbing to the top of a watchtower

[First Speaker]

17. She'll climb to the top of the Capitol Dome...

...screaming, "top of the world, Ma!"

[Moostache]

31. Just so long as when she falls

everyone moves out of the way and lets the evil loudmouth thing go SPLAT!

[Maine Abu El Banat]

11. I decree

Henceforth obnoxious women will no longer be referred to Karen's, but will be referred to as Marjorie Taylors.

[world wide wally]

12. Did MTG ever graduate from middle school?

[hadEnuf]

13. Throw this traitorous POS out of Congress.

She is unfit to serve.

[gab13by13]

14. Greene wants the publicity to fund raise,

She is getting it. Ignoring her would be better.

[Sneederbunk]

15. Ignoring her is best. Wish DU would do the same.

[Treefrog]

40. I wish people would ignore the former guy.

Yesterday I counted over half a dozen threads on the first page of gd about him. Never realized he was so popular here.

[lagomorph777]

16. Perjury Traitor GanGreene is the terrorist supporter.

These freaks project like an IMAX.

[AllaN01Bear]

21. we imax feel insulted . however , we feel that ms greene should be removed

thought that was going to happen a long time ago

[dameatball]

18. Trashy wannabe uses trashy tactics to gin up her trashy supporters. Again. Or is it still?

[jalan48]

20. Like Trump, she's a bully. She'll keep pushing until someone stands up

to her. In my opinion she’s deserving of a punch in the nose.

[CrackityJones75]

22. The people calling to ignore her

The people calling to ignore her are way.... WAY off.

She didn’t get elected because we gave her attention. She got elected because there is a serious amount of people that support her. And we have not called these people put and publicly shamed them and cut them off from society. We talk nice to them at our kids sporting events, at our kids band concerts, and other functions. What we should be doing is acknowledging these people in the sense that we tell them they are not welcome to be around is and our children. And they need to hear it from everyone, every time they open their yaps.

The police haven’t gotten as bad as they are because we feed their egos by giving them attention. They have gotten that way because we haven’t stood up and called bullshit! Not enough people anyway.

Jan 6th happened not because we gave those people attention but because they sat and TOLD us they were going to pull some shit like that and literally here on this site people told us all about how they were just talk and would stay home and hump their guns.

Sorry but ignoring this shit is NOT the way to handle it.

[jalan48]

24. +1

[llashram]

27. this is common sense

must report every transgression by racist fascists like this.

The last line, truth. And thank you

[Mr. Evil]

23. Every day Marjorie Trailer Queen remains in office

is a complete failure of any standards and is an abject embarrassment of the highest order.

[Haggard Celine]

25. Greene is the female Alex Jones.

[Jon King]

30. All for show, video for her supporters.

Best to just ignore her and keep the focus on governing well. Not one mind will change in her base or our base either way.

[rateyes]

32. AOC could quote the scriptures to MTG

I’m not debating you because Jesus told us not to throw our pearls before swine.

[marieo1]

33. AOC is a lady with class

AOC is a lady and responded the way that was decent...........Greene is a rag with no class about her at all..........how she would dare to set foot in the white house is beyond me. Who elected such a mean hateful woman?

[Stinky The Clown]

43. "Who elected such a mean hateful woman?"

The people of her district. Like people in a frighteningly large number of districts.

[msfiddlestix]

34. Totally AGREE

[Maeve]

35. I bet she was one of the meanest girls in high school

With a posse around her, so she could show off just how nasty she could get

[Loge23]

36. I can't even anymore

The tragic fact is that there are enemies of our country and democracy in the the Congress and Senate.
There are no words left as to what to do about them.

[SallyHemmings]

37. Restraining order?

[Midnight Writer]

42. There's a guy in my town who hangs out in the business area who follows people and screams at them.

Sometimes I give him a couple of bucks.

[dalton99a]

44. Useless utter trash.

[11 Bravo]

45. You left out the "g" in gutter.

[intheflow]

46. And just like that, the insurrection continues.

Now legitimized by WaPo, even as they fact check Greene’s lies in real time. It would be better for the country overall if the press ignored reporting the GQP Doublespeak, calling antifa and Democrats terrorists and pediphiles, and instead reported on the fucking Doublespeak. That would change the headline from

Rep. Greene aggressively confronts Rep. Ocasio-Cortez, causing New York congresswoman to raise security concerns

to something like,

Security concerns were raised today when Rep. Greene verbally attacked another congress member, baselessly accusing them of supporting terrorists when Greene has accepted political contributions from groups actually on the FBI’s Terrorist Watchlist

[Dark n Stormy Knight]

48. Should, but won't happen.

The M$M needed to follow similar advice regarding formulation of their questions to the former guy. Instead, they gave him opportunity after opportunity to spin his web of lies. For instance (in a a simplified example), rather than asking "Did you...?" when he obviously did, when they could have asked, "Why did you...?"

But, as the M$M will gladly tell us, it's not their job to fight for what's right. It's to make money.

[Initech]

51. Agreed! And pass a resolution preventing anyone who believes in Q Anon garbage...

From getting anywhere near the Capitol!
