MT Greene Owns Herself After Saying She Dumped Bud For Coors Due To Bud’s Pro-LGBTQ Stance

Georgia Republican Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene thought she had the perfect way to troll Anheuser-Busch, makers of Bud Light, for their partnership with Dylan Mulvaney.

According to Newsweek:

Calls to boycott Bud Light started after transgender influencer Dylan Mulvaney revealed the beer brand had sent her a unique can of beer with her face on it. The company gifted her the personalized can to commemorate the one-year anniversary of the TikToker’s gender transition.

The can “was a gift to celebrate a personal milestone and is not for sale to the general public,” according to Anheuser-Busch, the company that owns Bud Light.

Anheuser-Busch later explained that it “works with hundreds of influencers across our brands as one of many ways to authentically connect with audiences across various demographics. From time to time we produce unique commemorative cans for fans and for brand influencers, like Dylan Mulvaney.”

No big deal, right? Well, it is if you’re a right-wing nutjob like Greene or others on the extreme right who felt the need to publicly announce they would no longer have anything to do with the beer giant.

Here’s what Greene posted Saturday on Twitter:

“I would have bought the king of beers, but it changed it’s gender to the queen of beers. So it’s made to chill from here on out.”

However, if Greene had bothered to do a simple Google search, she would have found this:

Thanks to support from companies such as Molson Coors, Denver PrideFest has become the largest celebration of LGBTQ pride in the Rocky Mountain region. Though its format will be different because of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, this year’s Coors Light Denver Virtual Pride Parade will be a compilation of fun-filled virtual parade “units” submitted by community businesses and organizations that will be livestreamed as a “parade” with live commentary.

“Coors Light has been a sponsor of The Center and Denver PrideFest for decades,” says Rex Fuller, CEO of The Center on Colfax. “The work we have been able to do at The Center over the last four decades would not be possible without this support and we are grateful for it.”

In other words, Greene managed to humiliate herself for the entire internet to enjoy, which it certainly did.

AOC Has the Perfect Clapback To Marjorie Taylor Greene Calling NYC ‘Disgusting’

Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) masterfully trolled Georgia Republican Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene on Twitter after Greene called New York City “disgusting.”

Greene traveled to Manhattan on Tuesday for the arraignment of failed former president Donald Trump on 34 counts of falsifying business records in order to hide hush money payments he made to adult film star Stormy Daniels during the 2016 presidential campaign. Trump allegedly had an extramarital affair with Daniels, though he denies doing so.

The Georgia Republican was downright rude when she discussed her time in New York, where she led a protest rally and hightailed it after five minutes when people began hurling verbal barbs at her.

Asked by Fox News host Tucker Carlson about how New York City looked, Greene replied:

“No, his home is disgusting. I compare it to what I call Gotham City. The streets are filthy, they’re covered with people basically dying on drugs. They can’t even stand up; they’re falling over. There’s so much crime in the city, I can’t comprehend how people live there. It was repulsive, it smells bad. I think it’s a terrible place.”


That didn’t sit well with Ocasio-Cortez, who took to Twitter and destroyed Greene.

Ocasio-Cortez added:

“If anyone went on TV and talked about a rural area like this, it’d be gloves off – and deservedly so. This is no different,” Ocasio-Cortez said. “If she doesn’t like the greatest city in the United States, that’s her problem. I ♥️ NY.”

That’s how to take down a bully like Marjorie Greene, who hasn’t responded to Ocasio-Cortez yet.

Marjorie Greene Gets Pelted With Twitter Karma For Calling Stormy Daniels ‘Old And Disgusting’

Georgia Republican Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene is furious that her orange lord and savior, Donald Trump, has been indicted by a Manhattan grand jury, and now she’s blaming everyone but the failed ex-president for the predicament he finds himself in.

The latest target for Greene’s online wrath is Stormy Daniels, the adult film star Trump allegedly slept with and then paid $130,000 to for her silence during the 2016 presidential race.

According to Greene, Daniels is “old and disgusting,” which kind of makes you wonder if the congresswoman has looked in a mirror lately and seen how much she resembles the caveman character from the 2004 Geico commercials.

Here’s the posting Greene made on Twitter:

“Democrat’s policies are so bad that they are relying on their heroine, who is too old and disgusting to make money as a porn star now, so she’s grifting off her lies about Trump.”

Of course, if Daniels is old and disgusting, then why did Trump sleep with her in the first place? Greene may think her online burn is brilliant, but it was only successful in getting her trashed by others on social media who reminded her that she isn’t exactly going to win any beauty pageants unless the judges are deaf and blind.

Democrat Swats Down MT Greene On Guns: ‘You Guys Are Worried About Banning Books – Dead Kids Can’t Read!’

At a Committee on Oversight and Accountability hearing this week, Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) got swatted down by Democratic Congressman Jared Moskowitz (FL) on the issue of guns, gun safety, and the mass shooting at a school in Nashville that left six dead, including three young children.

Moskowitz began by remarking:

“There are six people that are dead in that school including three children because you guys got rid of the assault weapons ban.
“Because you guys made it easy for people who don’t deserve to have weapons, who are mentally incapable of having weapons of war, being able to buy those weapons and go into schools.”

The Florida Democrat then noted the hearing itself was a joke with the GOP focusing on car theft and public urination in the District of Columbia:

“You guys want to talk about DC public schools and crime? I don’t I don’t want to burst your bubble over there, but mass murder in schools is crime.

“You want to talk about 1,300 cars being stolen, 550 people have been murdered in school. Who cares about the cars? What about the kids?”

Moskowitz continued:

“No hearing for them. 330,000 kids have experienced gun violence in this country. The number one killer of school aged children in this country. Gun violence. How do you think for the parents who have had to bury their kids who have had to decide what to put their kids clothes, but their kids when they buried them? Or kind of box they have to pick out for their child or for when they come home?”

When it was her time to speak, Greene began whining, “I was an 11th grade and Joe Biden made our school gun free school zones. One of the students in my school brought three guns to school and our entire school went on lockdown, because he was the only person with a gun. There was no good guy with a gun to protect us kids at school.”

She added:

“So, if you want to have a good talk about schools, and protecting children, we need to talk about protecting our children the same way we protect our president, the way we protect our celebrities.”

However, Congressman Moskowitz had the perfect retort to Greene’s claims:

“Did the good guys with the guns stop six people from getting murdered? No. But you know what? AR 15’s, have you ever seen what those bullets do to children? You know why you don’t hunt with an AR 15 with a deer, because there’s nothing left. And there’s nothing left as these kids when people go into school and murder them while they’re trying to read.

“You guys are worried about banning books – dead kids can’t read.”

If guns were the solution to crime the way Republicans claim, wouldn’t the United States be the safest country on the planet? It isn’t, and the proliferation of guns is a big part of the problem.

‘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.”
