WATCH: Witness Humiliates Marjorie Taylor Greene For Spouting Lies During House Hearing

A former U.S. intelligence agent set Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) straight on the facts during a House hearing.

Dr. Mark Lowenthal was testifying when Greene remarked that American intelligence agencies could locate and arrest alleged military leaker Jake Teixeira but had been unable to determine the origins of the Covid-19 virus.

“So, the intelligence community is able to figure out immediately who was leaking classified information in a Discord chat, but yet still doesn’t want to say whether it came from the lab or didn’t come from the lab,” Greene said. “The intelligence communities seem to release or not release information based on how the information will affect the government that it seems to protect.”

Lowenthal replied, “May I respond to something else that you said in your comments, Ms. Greene? There is a vast, vast difference between tracking a leak on a social media site and determining the origins of this disease. And to compare the two is entirely fallacious, ma’am.”

Greene: “Dr. Lowenthal, you’ve said that you keep your intelligence claims and information nonpartisan. In 2018, Mr. Lowenthal, you were quoted in the New York Times saying that President Trump is the best president that Russia ever had. That sounds pretty political to me.”

That led Lowenthal to counter, “I was no longer an intelligence officer at the time, ma’am. I’m a private citizen.”

“Well, I think you have a difficult time keeping your political opinions out of your political [analysis],” Greene told Lowenthal.

In other words, Greene didn’t get the answers she wanted, so she tried to slag the witness. It’s the same playbook Republicans have been using for years.

‘National Security Risk’ Greene Exposes Classified Info At Wednesday House Hearing: Video

Proving that she remains just as much of a national security risk as she was on January 6, 2021, Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) blurted out classified information during a Wednesday hearing on the border.

The hearing, which was held in Texas so that Congressional Republicans could have a photo op and pretend to give a damn about anything but scoring political points, featured testimony from U.S. Border Patrol Chief Raul Ortiz, who was asked by Greene about explosives found on the U.S.-Mexico border.

“Chief Ortiz, are you aware that there was an explosive device found by Border Patrol agents on January 17th in an area called No Man’s Land, and there’s surveillance of who put it there? And guess what? It wasn’t Americans; it was cartels. Are you aware of that?”

Ortiz replied:

“I will tell you that some of this information that I receive, I receive in a confidential [sensitive compartmented information facility (SCIF)], so I’m going to be a little hesitant of briefing what I know and what I don’t know with respect to some of those, an event like that.”

Undeterred by that warning, Greene bulldozed ahead like the loose cannon she always has and will be.

“I understand, Chief Ortiz, but I’m not going to be confidential because I think people deserve to know,” Greene huffed. “Our Border Patrol agents should not be in those type of conditions where they are at risk of being blown to pieces by the cartels, who, by the way, are criminals, and they should be treated as such.”

“As a matter of fact, I’ve co-sponsored legislation to declare war on the cartels because they are definitely declaring war on us, the American people, and our Border Patrol agents, and I’ve had enough of it, and I know Americans have had enough of it.”

WATCH Lauren Boebert Object When Cori Bush Says ‘White Supremacist’ At A House Hearing 

Colorado Republican Congresswoman Lauren Boebert got very upset when her Democratic colleague on the House Oversight Committee, Cori Bush of Missouri, dared to utter the words “white supremacist” and immediately demanded that they be taken down and removed from the record on Wednesday.

The hearing was to discuss the U.S. Strategic Petroleum Reserve, and Bush noted that one of the witnesses invited by committee Republicans was Alex Epstein, President of the Center for Industrial Progress, even though he had “espoused white supremacist views.”

Boebert immediately told chair Rep. Pat Fallon (R-TX), “Mr. Chairman, I demand the gentlelady’s words be taken down. She just called the witness a white supremacist.”

Bush rightly noted that she had actually “referred to the words, not to the person, not to him, the words.”

Fallon informed Boebert that “The chair cannot take down words that are directed toward a witness only to other members.”

That allowed Bush to fully quote Epstein:

“Rather than disavow them, he doubled down on this narrative saying, ‘It has nothing to do with skin color. I was arguing that those cultures overall are inferior to Western culture.'”

The Missouri Democrat noted, “We are not inferior to any culture, speaking as a descendant of one of those cultures.”

While she was at it, Congresswoman Bush also noted that Boebert and many of her GOP colleagues had refused to sign a letter condemning white supremacy.

Indeed, as Forbes reports, House Oversight member Rep. Jamie Raskin (D-MD) urged Republicans to condemn white supremacy in all forms.

The ranking member attached a resolution that’s already been signed by all of the committee’s Democratic members, which Raskin asked GOP committee members to now sign as well.

Raskin cited “dangerous and conspiratorial rhetoric that Republican committee members have made that “[borrow] from” the “Great Replacement” theory as making it more necessary to emphasize that the Republican lawmakers denounce those ideologies, such as describing migrants arriving at the Southern border as an “invasion” and claiming the Biden Administration was “implementing a plan ‘to deliberately open our border’ for purposes of ‘changing our culture.’”

Despite that plea, 26 Republicans refused to sign the resolution. One of those was none other than Lauren Boebert.

To borrow a line from the late author Maya Angelou, “When someone shows you who they are, believe them the first time.

MT Greene Whines She Was ‘Attacked’ By An ‘Insane’ Woman And Gets Reminded Of Her Own Disgusting Behavior

Karma paid a visit to Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA), and she decided she’d share the details with the internet in search of sympathy, but instead she got reminded of her own hateful actions.

Greene complained about an incident she claims took place at a restaurant.

“I was attacked in a restaurant tonight by an insane women and screamed at by her adult son. They had no respect for the restaurant or the staff or the other people dining or people like me who simply have different political views. They are self righteous, insane, and completely out of control. I was sitting at my table, working with my staff, and never even noticed these people until they turned into demons. People used to respect others even if they had different views. But not anymore. Our country is gone.”

Of course, this is the very same Marjorie Taylor Greene who screamed “liar!” at President Joe Biden during his State of the Union Address earlier this month.

Greene has also been known to confront and attack anyone who disagrees with her on the issue of guns and gun control, going so far as to stalk and harass mass shooting survivor David Hogg.

More recently, Greene has called for a “national divorce” that would split the United States into red and blue states, suggesting that such a plan is the only way to avoid a second civil war.

Twitter users slammed Greene for her whining and reminded her of her own disgusting behavior over the years.

Marjorie Taylor Greene Calls For A ‘National Divorce’ – ‘Separate By Red States And Blue States’

Reinforcing her credentials as an insurrectionist and traitor to the United States, Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) posted a tweet this morning — on Presidents Day, no less — to call for a complete breakup of the country, separating the nation into red states and blue states.

Greene, who has repeatedly defended the domestic terrorists who stormed the U.S. Capitol on January 6, 2021, sent out this tweet:

“We need a national divorce. We need to separate by red states and blue states and shrink the federal government. Everyone I talk to says this. From the sick and disgusting woke culture issues shoved down our throats to the Democrat’s traitorous America Last policies, we are done.”

 

Greene suggested the same thing (a “national divorce: in January of last year:

Of course, such a scenario is both impossible and illegal under the Constitution Greene claims to love and took an oath to preserve, protect, and defend when she was elected.

It was also the cause of the Civil War, when Southern states tried to secede from the United States and formed the Confederate States of America, all for the ignoble goal of allowing white people to own slaves.

The Georgia Republican was quickly pelted with fact-checks and mockery.
