1. Don't mess with Jamie Raskin...

It isn't vulgar or stupid sounding like a Republican response, but the burn is still felt.

[WiVoter]

2. Definitely!

Exactly! ❤️😍🔥

[gratuitous]

3. "But please do it on your own time, forthwith"

Rep. Raskin wins a unanimous decision in the battle of wits. Expert analysis indicates that Rep. Greene was unarmed.

[HuskyOffset]

15. Greene should stick to what she does best

Training crossfit and having affairs.

[area51]

34. +1 n/t

[lastlib]

22. she brought wet noodles to a bludgeon-fight.

She just doesn't have game to play in the bigs. Too dumb to be a successful traitor.

[Rebl2]

25. Do you

think she knows what forthwith means?

[BobTheSubgenius]

51. One more than thirdwith?

[Solomon]

52. !

Ya got me!

[SmallFry]

26. Fox News would end your last sentence...

…Rep Greene showed up as ready as ever.

They kind of mean the same thing.

[Raven]

4. Nothing "gentlelady" about that woman! n/t

[lastlib]

24. (in the chamber, he has to be polite...)

I'm almost certain that a good quantity of vomit came up in his throat when he used that term for her. It would for me.

[ShazzieB]

38. It's just a figure of speech, of course, and a formality of congressional protocol. 🤷‍♀️

But omg, how excruciatingly ironic. There is not a trace of gentleness in MTG, nor is there anything remotely ladylike about her. Referring to her that way is beyond ludicrous and is just one more indication of her complete unfitness to serve in Congress.

[BComplex]

53. +1,000,000

Everything you said!

[greatauntoftriplets]

5. MTG will never have the smarts to understand how much Raskin outclasses her.

[smirkymonkey]

29. +1000

[crickets]

30. So true. nt

[Evolve Dammit]

46. nope. none of the MAGATS will. They lack the "capacity."

[BeyondGeography]

6. Perfect

[plimsoll]

7. It's pretty wild watching internet trolls appear IRL.

The sad thing is that her audience will think she pwned him.

[Ohio Joe]

8. Well said

[SleeplessinSoCal]

9. "gentlelady" is the oxymoron of the week.

[dchill]

10. She's probably dumbstruck, wondering why...

...he didn't say anything bad about her.

[patphil]

11. I like the Trump/Putin axis comment.

Like Hitler/Mussolini axis in WW2.

[Samrob]

16. I like the "within her party" part of it! Needs to be said more and more. nt

[FoxNewsSucks]

33. Definitely.

It's Putin's Party, and that's how it should be referred to at all times, by everyone.

[calimary]

50. I think this is a GREAT idea!

Putin’s Party.

Pass it on!

[Woodwizard]

37. I like it too makes the stink spread around and stick.

[JudyM]

40. Same here, that was a great turn of phrase.

[dickthegrouch]

42. And it apparently went unchallenged

I don’t see anything “alleged”, just an understanding of an assertion. It was a very powerful statement to go into the congressional record.

[JudyM]

43. Good point.

[MerryHolidays]

12. I believe the voters in Maryland's 8th District

are some of the smartest voters in the US: you have selected this wonderful person Jamie Raskin to be your (and, therefore, OUR) representative.

Thank you!

[childfreebychoice]

41. I love that he is openly atheist. I love Md, in spite of Hogan. Nt

[Faux pas]

13. I

love 💘 Jamie Raskin!

[RocRizzo55]

14. pwned! N.T.

[calimary]

17. SPEAK! And then REPEAT!!!

We know who she sides with.

Any and all condemnation of her - she's EARNED.

[underpants]

18. Isn't this normally taken up in committee

Oh…yeah

[CaptainTruth]

19. Yes!!! More of this PLEASE!!!

Stop letting Rethugs insult us & define us without pushing back.

When they say something & we don't challenge it, when we let the accusation stand, a bunch of people take that as an indication that the accusation is true.

[ananda]

20. I like him! Well said.

!!!

[GB_RN]

21. Smackdown!

Ka-pow!

[demmiblue]

23. MORE: "We've got some people echoing all of Trump's complicity with Vladimir Putin from the Georgia

[senseandsensibility]

27. Yeah, stop treating these freaks with kid gloves

Call them out!

[Pepsidog]

28. Reskin beat her like a drum. Way to go.

[JohnnyRingo]

31. On the phone with her aid:

"What does that mean?"
haha

[FoxNewsSucks]

35. aide: "How the hell should I know?"

[LuvLoogie]

32. I'd like it better if he simply said

"Shut the fuck up, you stupid skank."

[Evolve Dammit]

47. Yeah, bad "decorum" though

[rockfordfile]

36. They should've dragged her ass out and put her on a one way trip to Russia.

[Trust_Reality]

39. Perfect!

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

44. He figuratively went Will Smith on her

48. Into the stratosphere over that morn's head

[cliftoncooper]

49. Axis

"Axis" is certainly a good term for it.

[3catwoman3]

54. Ain't gentle and sure...

…sure ain’t no lady.

What a crude, crass cretin she is.

[ck4829]

55. K&R

[Paladin]

56. K&R. Go Raskin! (nt)

[area51]

57. Traitor Greene did nazi that coming. n/t

[llashram]

58. she couldn't have understood

that big word "forthwith". Just impossible for such a vicious ignorant person.

[bucolic_frolic]

59. He's really tagged her with 'gentlelady' and she ain't neither

Kudos to Rep. Raskin!

[ificandream]

60. She needs to be a top target to be defeated when she's up in her next election.

Hopefully enough people in her district will be sick and tired of her as much as the rest of the country is.
