Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene Tries to Laugh Off Gazpacho Gestapo Mix-Up
Seattle Times ^ | Feb. 10, 2022

Posted on 02/10/2022 1:33:54 PM PST by nickcarraway

The right-wing firebrand laughed off comments made during an interview with One American Network (OAN) complaining House Speaker Pelosi was secretly investigating members of Congress and constituents.

“Not only do we have the D.C. jail, which is the D.C. gulag,” said Rep. Greene in a now-viral video. “Now we have Nancy Pelosi’s gazpacho police spying on members of Congress, spying on the legislative work that we do, spying on our staff and spying on American citizens that want to come to talk with their representatives.”

After being roundly mocked for confusing the Gestapo, the official secret police of Nazi Germany and in German-occupied Europe with gazpacho, a cold tomato soup often served with cucumbers and cilantro, Greene surfaced on social media on Thursday morning.

Yeah, the story is that some dumb republican said a funny, not that capitol police broke into a congressman office dressed like construction workers and were snooping around the congressman’s files and were caught doing it. Totally the most important part of the story is to talk about cold soup.

If she came to me for tutoring, I guess I’d be open. It would just be nice to see Republicans who are educated and strategic again.

‘She has nothing to apologize for.’

that may be true; but somehow I doubt you’d say that if AOC said the same thing...

Yep. When I see the real MTG, she seems smart and articulate, but - as they do with any conservative female - the MSM try to portray her as a moron and so they amplify any gaffe. But Dem females get a pass on everything, no matter how idiotic.

She might have said what she meant, considering Pelosi is Italian.

This is a distraction from her message, which was right on point.

Gazpacho = bad.  Corpse-men (Obama, multiple times in the same speech) = ok

FTR...

Gazpacho good,
Gestapo bad.

But MTG is completely right about Nasty Nancy and her totalitarian thugs.

Do you really think she was referring to a cold, tomato and pepper-based, soup?

She does lots of speaking off the cuff in response to interview questions and a brain freeze here or there is inevitable.
