Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.) donned a Make America Great Again hat and shirt honoring slain Georgia nursing student Laken Riley as Biden delivered his State of the Union address Thursday.
Democrats, led by Rep. Steven Horsford (D-Nev.), demanded that Greene remove the hat before Biden, 81, entered the chamber, but the Georgia Republican refused.
...
“Say her name. Laken Riley,” read the T-shirt Greene wore under her bright red blazer.
The congresswoman also pinned two buttons on her blazer – a “Say her name” one, and another with a photo of Riley.
...
“Utter disrespect,” she said in a tweet sent out during the State of the Union. “Joe Biden gets Laken Riley’s beautiful name wrong.“
“Even when he tries to say it, he can’t. Absolutely unfit ...
Riley, 22, was murdered by Venezuelan national Jose Ibarra last month..
Ibarra, 26, entered the country illegally and had several run-ins with the law prior to Riley’s killing.
The House passed the Laken Riley Act hours before Biden’s speech, a bill that would require migrants charged with theft or burglary to be detained by federal immigration authorities.

She ran into Biden before hand telling him to say her name
I don’t think it was planned
Lincoln Riley is the USC football coach although I doubt Biden knows that

I take that back, he actually had a button with her name on it
Why didn’t the Republicans use Marjorie Taylor Greene to give the rebuttal instead or the wannabe soccer mom Katie Britt?
Rep. Steven Horsford (D-Nev.), demanded, it is well past the time to give these guys and gals the FU. IM FOR CRUSHING THEM AT EVERY TURN
I liked the way she told that British female reporter to F off. I try not to launch 🚀 too many F bombs, but that wench deserved every bit of it.
Yeah on the lecturn with other props.
Biden makes another public mistake, although to be honest, the correct name of “Laken” is somewhat unique. I have never seen “Laken” used for anyone before this. Boy or girl. That doesn’t excuse the president, or his party for propping up a dementia patient as face of the nation.
He was so juiced up on amphetamines he didn’t realize what he was saying during the SOTU. It was kind of sad.
“Why didn’t the Republicans use Marjorie Taylor Greene to give the rebuttal”
Exactly. We want a bulldog out there refuting Joe’s crap.
Whats more discraceful, wearing a MAGA hat or tearing up the SOTU speech in front of the whole nation?
The Alabama Senator was speaking to Biden voters, not you and me.
I am just glad that her family wasn’t there to get stomped on.
Heck, the writers really made the mistake. What was the point of bringing her up, if not to trash her name.
I didn’t watch it so I didn’t see but wanted Biden look like? I suspected they would have him so Juiced up on drugs that we might actually see a face plant on live TV
......70 more Republicans would, mathematically, give Republicans a veto proof house.
That said, there’s always a few rubber spined republicans (RINO’s) so 295 R’s is better.
R’s are 219 today according to Google.
Love MTG! We need a hundred more just like her!
Parts of Biden’s face did not move, when he screamed and yelled. He was angry during the speech with his attacks against Republicans. Guess he does not need Republican votes this November.
Democrats applauded a person not following the Constitution.
He is not keeping the country safe!
Good point. She was speaking to female voters such as mothers, grandmothers, with her sincere speech and kindness.
target marketing soccer moms?
already has MAGA moms bagged up
My first thought as well.
