Congressman Brings National Guard To Confront Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene Over Guam Status Gaffe
Legal Insurrection ^ | March 15, 2021 | William A. Jacobson

Posted on 03/16/2021 7:11:50 AM PDT by Mr.Unique

Uniformed National Guard engaging in a political protest directed at a Congressman, in the halls of the Capitol no less, is another sign the military is being politicized.

Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene made a comment lumping Guam in with foreign countries which should not receive U.S. tax dollars. ....SNIP...

While Guam is not a state, it is a U.S. territory and it’s residents are U.S. citizens. In perfectly appropriate responses, cookies and books were sent to Greene ...SNIP...

In a totally inappropriate move, Guam Congressman Michael San Nicolas, who is under an ethics investigation, led a group of Guam National Guard in uniform to Greene’s office to confront her. She wasn’t there at the time, but the visual of military-fatigued National Guard engaging in a political protest directed at a Congressman, in the halls of the Capitol no less, was another sign that the military is losing its bearing in the age of Biden.

Guam isn’t normal America and most Americans don’t consider them family. Hawaii barely is.

I cannot imagine how military leaders are letting this happen.

Just ask who is in charge...

One is a gaffe, the other an outrageous scandal. Heads should roll.

Although that’s a pretty ignorant comment on the part of Marjorie Taylor-Greene and doesn’t do her any favors to shed the “nutcase” label that has been attached to her.

Agree.

It was one misspoken word in an adhoc statement that was 99% correct.

With Leftists there is no forgiveness because they know not God.

Actually, when she makes her public correction, she should throw in the fact that she did know there aren't 57 States. IJS.

Sedition!

Conspiracy!

Tresspassing!

Every single charge leveled at Jan 6 protesters, but under color of military.

Why are any National Guard from Guam even in DC to begin with? What an absolute disgrace this government has become, but Democrats behaving like thugs is nothing new.

She can be embarrassing at times. How she could be a congressperson and not know basic information is beyond me. I hope they don’t make her the face of election 2022.

The money quote:

"Congressman Michael San Nicolas, who is under an ethics investigation"

Wonder what else this "representative" has been involved with?

Georgia’s “best and brightest“ really don’t impress me much.

“I guess that would depend on if they went there protesting or just to pay a visit.”

The ignorance of this statement - in the context of what happened - is breathtaking.
