Furious Marjorie Taylor Greene Attacks Speaker Mike Johnson For Not Impeaching Biden

Just a little more than two weeks ago, Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) looked and sounded pleased that Mike Johnson (R-LA) had become speaker of the House, taking a selfie with him and posting it on Twitter.

But that was before Johnson made it clear that he wasn’t about to fast-track the impeachment of President Joe Biden, which has long been a dream of Greene’s, despite the fact that Republicans have almost no evidence to warrant impeachment.

The Washington Post’s Jacqueline Alemany reported Friday that Johnson didn’t sound enthusiastic about moving forward on impeachment.

Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.), a constitutional lawyer by training, has taken a more reserved tone, both publicly and privately, urging members to conduct a thorough and fair investigation with no predetermined outcome. In a closed-door meeting with House GOP moderates this week, he indicated that there is insufficient evidence at the moment to initiate formal impeachment proceedings, according to people who attended the meeting.

“We’ll just go where the evidence goes and we’re not there yet,” Rep. Don Bacon (R-Neb.) said, paraphrasing Johnson’s comments on the inquiry at the Republican Governance Group’s weekly lunch on Tuesday. “Most of us are saying, look, we can’t even get a single Democratic vote on this right now. I think the voters will reject what they are seeing when it comes to Biden [policies] — but high crimes and misdemeanors? I don’t think we’ve seen that or enough data to really make a good case and I feel like [Johnson] really agreed with us on that.”

That didn’t sit well with Greene, who went on Twitter and attacked Johnson.

Not long ago we had a Speaker that believed in impeachment so much that he launched an inquiry without a floor vote, but you were told he was bad.

After 8 R’s and all D’s ousted him, we found checks to Joe Biden and evidence of a massive money laundering scheme and now the new guy you are told is way better doesn’t want to impeach.

Such progress.

The Georgia Republican was roundly mocked for her online hissy fit.

Poor Margie! She desperately wants to be on the winning team, but she belongs to a party of liars, losers, and fools.
