MT Greene Calls Biden A Criminal ‘Mastermind’ – After Declaring Him ‘Mentally Incompetent’

Georgia Republican Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene can’t seem to decide if President Joe Biden is a brilliant “mastermind” of a vast criminal enterprise or “mentally incompetent,” using both descriptions of the president in separate attacks.

Greene used the “mastermind” title for Biden during an appearance on The Kimberly Guilfoyle Show, remarking, “But the true crimes are linked to Joe Biden himself, and he is the mastermind of the Biden criminal enterprise.”

“Are we involved in the Ukraine war because of the dirty secrets that [Ukraine President Volodymyr] Zelensky and Ukraine holds on Joe Biden and his family?” she asked. “Are we on the brink of a nuclear holocaust because of this corruption and these crimes that Joe Biden has committed against the American people?”

“And I do believe that it’s our responsibility and our duty as Republicans in Congress to lead the impeachment and impeach Joe Biden in the House of Representatives,” Greene added.

And yet, in September of last year, Greene declared that Biden was “frail, weak, and dementia-ridden.”

Also, following the president’s 2023 State of the Union Address in March, the Georgia Republican slammed the president as “mentally incompetent, feckless, dementia-ridden piece of crap.”

So which one is it, Margie? Is the president a mastermind or is he too mentally incompetent to know where he is?

Business Insider provided Greene with this reminder:

Someone, please tell Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene that President Joe Biden can’t be mentally sound enough to run an international cabal of insidious elites while also being completely senile. 

Marge, if you want to see actual incompetence, all you have to do is look in a mirror.

Jamie Raskin: GOP’s Bogus Claims Of A Biden Bribery Scandal Can Be Traced To Giuliani And Russia

On Wednesday, Republicans on the House Oversight and Accountability Committee made an announcement that they had been made aware of information being held by the FBI that allegedly proves President Joe Biden has been involved in a bribery scandal that supposedly took place while he was serving as vice president in the Obama administration.

CBS News reports that the allegation came from House Oversight Committee chairman James Comer (KY) and Sen. Chuck Grassley (R-IA).

In their letter to (FBI Director Chris) Wray and Attorney General Merrick Garland, Grassley and Comer said that it had come to their attention that “the Department of Justice (DOJ) and the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) possess an unclassified FD-1023 form that describes an alleged criminal scheme involving then-Vice President Biden and a foreign national relating to the exchange of money for policy decisions.”

“It has been alleged that the document includes a precise description of how the alleged criminal scheme was employed as well as its purpose,” their letter said. 

The White House immediately responded to announcement from Grassley and Comer, with Ian Sams, the White House spokesperson for oversight and investigations, noting:

“For going on five years now, Republicans in Congress have been lobbing unfounded, unproven, politically-motivated attacks against the President and his family without offering evidence for their claims or evidence of decisions influenced by anything other than U.S. interests.”

“When it comes to President Biden’s personal finances, anybody can take a look: he has offered an unprecedented level of transparency, releasing a total of 25 years of tax returns to the American public.”

And now Rep. Jamie Raskin (D-MD), the ranking member of the House Oversight Committee, is suggesting that the latest attempt by Republicans to create a scandal is actually part of a Russian campaign to discredit President Biden, explaining in a statement:

“Committee Republicans are recycling unsubstantiated claims floated by Senate Republicans by issuing a subpoena to the FBI to require the release of a June 2020 tip from an unknown informant.  During this same time period, Rudy Giuliani and Russian agents, sanctioned by Trump’s Treasury Department, were peddling disinformation aimed at interfering in the 2020 presidential election.  Given Chair Comer’s commitment to ‘dismantle’ the FBI, it’s no surprise that he would rely on these unverified tips to attack President Biden in one more baseless partisan stunt.”

In the weeks ahead, you can expect to hear more from Comer and other Republicans about this nonexistent scandal they’ve created out of thin air. They have nothing, but it won’t keep them from peddling lies to their constituents for the purpose of slagging Biden and trying to raise money off it.

RNC’s Attempt To Troll Biden’s 2024 Campaign Announcement Crashes And Burns

Earlier this morning, President Joe Biden announced via an online video that he will indeed be a candidate for reelection in 2024.

In the video, CNN reports, the president again invoked a message he used in the 2020 race.

Biden framed next year’s contest as a fight against Republican extremism, implicitly arguing he needed more time to fully realize his vow to restore the nation’s character.

“When I ran for president four years ago, I said we are in a battle for the soul of America. And we still are,” he said in the video, which opened with images of the January 6, 2021, insurrection and abortion rights activists protesting at the US Supreme Court.

“The question we are facing is whether in the years ahead we have more freedom or less freedom. More rights or fewer,” Biden says in voiceover narration. “I know what I want the answer to be and I think you do too. This is not a time to be complacent. That’s why I’m running for reelection.”

In response, the Republican National Committee (RNC) posted an ad generated by AI (artificial intelligence), according to Axios.

The Republican National Committee responded to President Biden’s re-election announcement Tuesday with an AI-generated video depicting a dystopian version of the future if he is re-elected.

  • The video features AI-created images appearing to show Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris celebrating at an Election Day party, followed by a series of imagined reports about international and domestic crises that the ad suggests would follow a Biden victory in 2024.

However, the Republican effort to troll Biden’s announcement got an emphatic thumbs down on social media, where many commenters noted that it was more applicable to failed, one-term, twice-impeached former president Donald Trump.

Greene Demands President Biden Give Up Secret Service Protection After Nashville School Shooting

It’s another dark day in the United States, with yet another mass shooting at a school, leaving six dead.

CNN reports from the scene in Nashville:

At least three students and three adults are dead following a shooting at the Covenant School in Nashville, Tennessee, police said Monday.

“We now know that there are three students who were fatally wounded as well as three adults inside the school. We are working to identify those victims. Including the shooter, a total of seven persons were killed as a result of this morning’s incident at the school,” Don Aaron of the Metro Nashville Police Department said.

Five of the six shooting victims were transported, Aaron said. All those who were shot are dead, he added.

“Three students who were shot are deceased. Three staff members who were shot are deceased,” Aaron told reporters.

After the shooting, President Joe Biden remarked, “We have to do more to stop gun violence. It’s ripping our communities apart. It’s ripping at the very soul of the nation. We have to do more to protect our schools so they aren’t turned into prisons.”

But according to Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA), blame for the shooting lies with the president and he should give up his Secret Service protection immediately.

On Twitter, Greene posted this hateful screed:

“My prayers are with the victims and families at the Covenant School in Nashville. Another absolutely horrific needless tragedy. Children and school staff should always be protected the same way politicians, money, precious stones, and gold are protected, but even more so, by good guys with guns. Thank God for good guys with guns and thank God a good guy with a gun killed the evil mentally deranged shooter today. Joe Biden’s gun free school zones have endangered children at schools leaving them as innocent targets of sick horrible disturbed people ever since he worked as a Senator to pass this foolish law. What a fool. What a failure. Gun grabbers like Joe Biden and Democrats should give up their Secret Service protection and put themselves on the same level as our unprotected innocent precious children at school. School shootings should NEVER happen and will end immediately when our nations children are defended the same way Joe Biden is by good guys with guns!!! End this now.”

Of course, the president hasn’t grabbed anyone’s guns and doesn’t want to, either. What he wants is sensible gun reform laws and a ban on assault weapons. We had an assault weapons ban for 10 years, from 1994 to 2004, and the republic didn’t come crashing down during that time.

Greene’s tweet was met with resistance from others on Twitter.

Lauren Boebert’s ‘Personal Responsibility’ Attack On Biden Comes Back To Bite Her On The A*s

Rep. Lauren Boebert’s (R-CO) latest attempt to troll President Joe Biden on social media wound up backfiring badly on her, resulting in a hilarious self-own that set Twitter alight with laughter and mockery.

Boebert fired off this post:

“Biden is more than halfway done with his term and he’s STILL blaming Trump, and some people STILL believe him.

“Personal responsibility is something the Left really has no concept of.”

Personal responsibility? That’s pretty darn rich coming from the Boebert, who recently announced that her underage son (17) has impregnated an underage (16) girl. The two aren’t yet married, either, Business Insider notes.

Rep. Lauren Boebert revealed that her 17-year-old son Tyler is about to have a son in April, which will make her a grandmother at 36.

The Colorado Republican praised the high rural teen birth rates as she said it was evidence these communities “value life.”

“I’m going to tell you all for the first time in a public setting that not only am I a mom of four boys but come April, I will be a ‘gigi’ to a brand new grandson,” Boebert said while speaking Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC) event earlier this week.

She said that she and her husband Jayson “are so excited to welcome this new life into our family.”

Boebert added, “Now my son, when I approached him and told him, ‘Tyler, I’m going to be a 36-year-old grandmother,’ he said, ‘Well, didn’t you make Granny a 36-year-old granny?'” Boebert said.
“I said, ‘Yes, I did.’ And he said, ‘Well, then it’s hereditary,'” she said jokingly.

So much for personal responsibility, huh?

That was all it took for other Twitter users to remind the congresswoman of her own less-than-responsible past and the lack of responsibility found in today’s Republican Party.

Nice try, Lauren, but you need to crawl back into your rathole and be quiet.
