House hearing on Garland devolves into chaos involving AOC, MTG & Crockett: ‘Are your feelings hurt? Aww’

Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.) traded barbs with Democratic Reps. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and Jasmine Crockett during a train wreck of a House Oversight Committee hearing Thursday night in which the lawmakers took turns body-shaming each other.

The hearing on whether to move forward with a contempt resolution against Attorney General Merrick Garland spiraled out of control after Greene brought up the daughter of the Manhattan judge presiding over former President Donald Trump’s hush money trial and then commented on the physical appearances of Crockett (D-Texas).

“I’d like to know if any of the Democrats on this committee are employing Judge [Juan] Merchan’s daughter,” Greene asked.

We cannot spare this woman - she fights. People may say MTG went overboard, but please - These are domestic enemies of the USA as far as I'm concerned and they deserve nothing less than spit and venom.

No such thing as taking it too far when dealing with the left.

attacking the eyelashes was funny - but might have been better to accuse her of Scarecrow Brain but then that might have gone over AOC’s head. MTG is a good fighter - but should do more advance planning when the R conference is involved. sometimes a speech/presser to make her point is preferable to jeopardizing the control of the House.

MTG shows more guts than most of the spineless Uniparty Republicans.

Is she perfect? Of course not. But I would gladly shake her hand.

MTG awarded "Most Perceptive Lawmaker" WRT a conceited Congressman stupidly wearing false eyelashes to a committee hearing.

Greene has a "butch body" because she works out most every day, so I don't see how that was an insult.

But her eyelash comment was crass and accomplished nothing but animosity and embarrassment for her party, detracting from the subject at hand. I love that she has more "testicular fortitude" than most of the men in there but the wise mind has a throttle.

Raskin, on the other hand, would do the nation a great favor if he'd follow his son's example and 'go into the light'. I suspect the young man offed himself from the sheer shame of having an unapologetic communist traitor for a father.

I want us to be more like the Taiwan Legislature, where they have face punches, water balloons, knock-down, drag-out fights with these Communists.

I like the way MTG bashed that girl for wearing Geto eyelashes.

Shame on the people who sent Ms. Eyelashes to Congress.

As far as MTG goes, we need every male on our side to be more masculine than she is. Fat chance of that, but I can dream, can't I?

Re: marjorie Taylor Green
I want that the Republican party stays united has that united front but I wonder about Johnson if she’s objecting I wonder about him she is exactly what we conservatives like to think of as getting going after this BS. She’s definitely got kahunas.

From my perspective, it’s always hard to tell what these guys have up their sleeve. I know Johnson stood up for Trump at the trial and that is appreciated, but she’s objecting because he gives too much right. I don’t know.

“No such thing as taking it too far when dealing with the left.”

According to Alinsky, and I am paraphrasing here, “Ridicule is the weapon the Democrats fear most.”

What I am concerned about is we all have Alinsky’s playbook. So why aren’t we using it? It’s not like Houston stealing signs or New England deflating a football. It is about our country and the one weapon the rats fear most is still in the Right’s holster. Take the weapon out of the holster and use it, like MTG did.

MTG is a disruptor.

Do I agree with her political position? Yes

Method? No

If she could learn to control her mouth and somehow heal her reputation, she might be an effective politician in the future.

She has no self-control and wants to have a name—— bad combination.

That bass turd Garland is putting Trump friends and associates in jail for allegedly committing the same contempt of Congress crimes his goatsmellin’ ass is committing.

“her eyelash comment was crass and accomplished nothing but animosity and embarrassment for her party,”

I think it might’ve accomplished a lot for her/our party.

Alinsky RULE 5: “Ridicule is man’s most potent weapon.” There is no defense. It’s irrational. It’s infuriating.”

The trouble is that, although the RATs are free and easy with their ridicule for us, the RINO whiny little bitches skulk away from every opportunity to do the same, while pee is running down their legs.

I’d love it if all GOP had MTG’s courage.

MTG said the false eyelashes prevented her from reading her statement. Seemed that she was reading OK, but pronouncing big words is a challenge. Apparently, “sycophant” is pronounced “SINKophant” in the ghetto. Big words are haaaard!

This wasn’t “masculine”. It was a stupid p..., er, cat fight.

“I know Johnson stood up for Trump at the trial “

Weenie words. They mean nothing until/unless he directs his committees to DO something. Which he won’t.

Apparently, Jordan has taken it upon himself to produce a couple acts of the play. But it’s just theater unless they go full badass on the traitors and criminals.

Maybe you should run for Congress. They don’t have enough RINO cowards there now.
