Greene Goes On Social Media Tirade, Attacks Republicans Who Tanked Tlaib Censure

On Thursday, Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene went on the offensive against the group of Republicans who helped tank her resolution to censure Rep. Rashida Tlaib.

Greene called out her colleagues, saying they “hide behind excuses.”

From The Hill:

“Our country is in the worst crisis in its history in every category and the Democrats are full blown communists and Republicans can’t even censure Rashida Tlaib,” Greene wrote in a post on X, formerly known as Twitter.

The post was accompanied by a photo of the list of 23 Republicans who voted to kill the resolution.

Conservatives on this list hide behind excuses with their white wigs on and quote the constitution.

Last week, Greene moved to force a vote on the censure resolution in connection with Tlaib’s criticism of Israel in the wake of Hamas’s attacks against the country last month.

The nearly two dozen votes were somewhat of a surprise, as House Republicans have criticized Tlaib in the past for her statements about Israel. Tlaib is the only Palestinian American in Congress.

“They claim the reason they voted with the Democrats to table my censure resolution against Rashida Tlaib is bc her full blown support of Hamas, w/words and actions, is her ‘free speech,’ yet they are unwilling to use Congress’s free speech, which is censure, to condemn her!” Greene wrote in a follow up post.

Claiming the country will continue to implode while “Republicans will do nothing,” Greene said the Republicans will continue hearings, trips to the border and writing “strongly worded letters” rather than harsher actions such as impeachment or censure.

Greene specifically took aim at Rep. Chip Roy (Texas), one of the 23 Republicans who voted against Tlaib’s censure.

“You voted to kick me out of the freedom caucus, but keep CNN wanna be [Rep] Ken Buck [R-Colo.] and vaping groping [Rep.] Lauren Boebert [R-Colo.] and you voted with the Democrats to protect Terrorist Tlaib,” Greene wrote in response to a post from Roy’s press office about Tlaib. “You hate Trump, certified Biden’s election, and could care less about [Jan. 6, 2021,] defendants being persecuted.”

Roy responded to Greene’s dig Thursday, telling The Hill, “Tell her to go chase so-called Jewish space lasers if she wants to spend time on that sort of thing.”
