AOC Slaps Down Marjorie Greene For Accusing Her Of An ‘Insurrection’ At The Supreme Court

Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) was accused by Georgia Republican Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene of being part of an “insurrection” at the Supreme Court simply because Ocasio-Cortez (who is also known as AOC) dared to show up for a peaceful protest outside the court after the six conservative justices overturned 50 years of precedent by striking down Roe v. Wade, which gave women the right to make their own reproductive choices.

Greene posted a video of AOC protesting, along with this asinine message:

“AOC just launched an insurrection. Any violence and rioting is a direct result of Democrat marching orders.”

That was all Ocasio-Cortez needed to lay a brutal slap down on Greene by reminding her of what a real insurrection looks like and the fact that the Georgia Republican asked Donald Trump to pardon her for her role in the violence that took place on January 6, 2021 at the Capitol.

“I will explain this to you slowly: exercising our right to protest is not obstruction of Congress nor an attempt to overturn democracy. If one were a heinous enough person to do that, they’d likely seek a pardon for it too. But only one of us here has done that. And it ain’t me.”

Others also reminded Greene that she’s in no position to accuse anyone of insurrection.

Yet again Marjorie has proven that she’s an idiot, a waste of flesh, and in need of being voted out of office ASAP.

WATCH Jamie Raskin Mock Marjorie Greene By Telling Her It ‘Sounds Like You Want To Arm’ Fetuses

No one in Congress seems to agitate Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) more than Democratic Congressman Jamie Raskin (MD), probably because Raskin is everything Greene will never be: Intelligent, witty, and accomplished.

That dynamic was on full display during a hearing of the House Rules Committee at which Greene was testifying on the issue of the Second Amendment when Raskin asked her:

“Do you think the students should be armed?”

Greene replied:

“I think children should be trained with firearms.”

Raskin retorted:

“So they can repel someone who comes in?”

Getting agitated, Greene said:

“That’s not what I said. I said I believe children should be trained with firearms so they understand how to use them.”

The debate then shifted to the topic of abortion, which led Greene to get apoplectic:

“Abortion kills babies! We’re talking about kids being killed, abortion kills innocent children… They can’t protect themselves at all from this horrific procedure.”

That led Raskin to expertly mock the Georgia Republican by telling her:

“Sounds like you want to arm them.”

All Greene could muster in response was a weak:

“That’s impossible. That’s impossible, Mr. Raskin.”

Game, set, and match Jamie Raskin. He managed to troll Greene right to her face.

Clarence Thomas Urges SCOTUS To Overturn Same-Sex Marriage And Contraception Rights Next

With the 6-3 ruling in the case of Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization, the conservative majority on the Supreme Court has completely eliminated a right that women have had for five decades: The right to make her own reproductive and family planning decisions.

But in his concurring opinion, Justice Clarence Thomas made it clear that this is only the beginning of what the right-wingers on the high court have planned for the United States in the future.

Specifically, Thomas wrote:

“In future cases, we should reconsider all of this Court’s substantive due process precedents, including Griswold, Lawrence, and Obergefell. Because any substantive due process decision is ‘demonstrably erroneous’ … we have a duty to ‘correct the error’ established in those precedents … After overruling these demonstrably erroneous decisions, the question would remain whether other constitutional provisions guarantee the myriad rights that our substantive due process cases have generated.”

Yes, the Supreme Court is now coming for other rights, meaning that millions of same-sex couples will suddenly find that their marriages declared null and void.

Also, the right to contraception will be curtailed, especially in states ruled by Republicans. Both men and women will no longer able to purchase birth control pills or condoms. There will be an explosion of unwanted pregnancies and births in the United States, driving us ever closer to Third World status.

There is, however, a way to counter what the court has done today: Democrats, Independents, and Republicans who value the Constitution must vote in November so that legislation can be passed that will guarantee all of these rights and place them beyond the control of the extremist judges on the Supreme Court.

Political Action Committee Alleges Lauren Boebert Was A Paid Escort And Had Two Abortions

Though you’ve likely never heard of the The American Muckrackers Political Action Committee (PAC), they helped make sure that Rep. Madison Cawthorn (R-NC) lost his primary bid for a second term Congress by releasing a series of damaging photos and videos of the congressman in all sorts of compromising positions.

And now that same PAC is promising to “fire” Rep. Lauren Boebert (R-CO), who is also facing an uncertain future when Colorado holds its primary election on June 28.

The allegations being made by American Muckrakers hit right the heart of what would be stunning hypocrisy on the part of Boebert, who is resolutely opposed to abortion and loves to suggest that she’s a Christian who doesn’t support same-sex marriage or LGBTQ rights.

Here’s the statement American Muckrakers released about Boebert and her allegedly disturbing past:

Be sure and note the mention of Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX), another anti-choice member of the GOP who is also fond of using his “morality” lectures to chide those who don’t share his right-wing Christian nationalist beliefs. And while there is no proof that Cruz ever paid Boebert for sex, he still needs to address the matter.

Boebert, on the other hand, had better hope more revelations don’t come up between now and June 28 or she’ll be joining Cawthorn in the unemployment line.

VIRAL VIDEO: Pro-Choice Protesters Strip During Joel Osteen Sermon 

Joel Osteen is the pastor at one of the biggest churches in the United States — Lakewood Chuch in Houston, Texas — and is seen on television by millions of people each and every week.

But a sermon Osteen started to give on Sunday was interrupted by three female pro-choice protesters who stripped down and made it clear they demanded to be heard, according to a report from Mediaite:

The Lakewood Church congregation, led by pastor Joel Osteen, began reciting their morning prayer which opens every service at the church.

“This is my Bible. I am what it says. I am. I have what it says I have. I can do what it says I can do,” they said in unison. “Today I will be taught the word of God. I boldly confessed. My mind is alert. My heart is receptive. I will never be the same.”

“God bless you!” Osteen replied as the congregation began to take their seats.

Right before Osteen was to begin his Sunday message however, a group from ‘TX 4 Abortions’ sitting close to the center of the stage, began to remove their clothing and shout.

Pro-choice activist Julianne D’Eredita yelled:

“It’s my body, my fucking choice!”

She was followed by the next woman, who loudly exclaimed:

“Overturn Roe, Hell No!”

D’Eredita then changed the opening prayer around to fit the moment:

“I am who I say I am, I do what I say I can do, because I have a choice!”

The three women were quickly escorted out by security, and once outside, D’Eredita told a local Houston TV station:

“I know it seems very outrageous to do it in a church in a private space. However, the people that are enforcing these laws have no qualms coming up to women in private spaces such as doctors’ offices and medical clinics to harass them and call them murderers.”

Hell yes! Let the church say amen!
