Fox Business host Maria Bartiromo chastized Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) for “creating chaos” in Congress when Greene appeared on “Sunday Morning Futures,” suggesting that she had no actual plan for how to oust Speaker of the House Mike Johnson (R-LA).
Bartiromo began by asking Greene, “You’re getting criticized on the left, on the right, in the media … a lot of people are criticizing you. And the reason that they are is because they’re saying that you’re creating drama during this election year. How is this leading to reelecting President Trump? How is this leading to the American people believing that the Republicans can govern? People are saying, ‘Look, she’s creating chaos. She’s making the entire party look like it’s disrupted.’ Your reaction and response to those criticisms?”
“Those that are calling this drama are the very people that are responsible for the drama that the American people are having to live through every single day,” Greene replied. “Those on the left, those on the right, the uniparty that’s in control of our government are the ones that have inflicted the American people with nearly $35 trillion in debt, ripped our border wide open.”
Greene said those criticizing her weren’t actually Americans.
“Yeah, those that are calling this drama are the very people that are responsible for the drama that the American people are having to live through every single day. Speaker Johnson refuses to use his power as Speaker of the House to do any type of negotiating to secure the southern border and stop the madness in our country.”
“The people criticizing me are not the American people,” she added. “The American people agree with me, and I’ve talked to them, and I’ve seen it all over. They are outraged.”
That led Bartiromo to inquire of Greene, “OK Congresswoman, you wanted Mike Johnson out,” Bartiromo said. “What is your alternative plan?”
“Our plan is this: We have to give the American people a reason to trust us and fight for us. The American people are supporting President Trump to be the next President of the United States because they’ve seen him in action. He fought against the Democrat agenda. He put America first. They desperately want him to lead this country again because they trust him and they know he will do that.
“Mike Johnson has betrayed America. He’s betrayed Republican voters. Under his leadership, he’s passed the Democrat agenda, passed the Biden administration’s policies, and fully funded them. We’re going to fight in Congress to do everything we can to stop this type of uniparty leadership. Mike Johnson’s speakership is over. He needs to do the right thing to resign and allow us to move forward in a controlled process. If he doesn’t do so, he will be vacated.”
The Fox host pushed back at Greene.
“With all due respect, you didn’t give me a plan for the speaker’s role,” Bartiromo said. “And again, does this mean you are going to file that motion at some point?”
Greene: “It’s coming, regardless of what Mike Johnson decides to do. And we have three more Republicans joining us for the special elections coming up very soon. So people need to know this can happen.”
Like all of the extreme right-wing bomb-throwers in Congress, Marjorie Taylor Greene has no actual ideas, no plans, and no understanding of how to govern. She just wants to promote herself and kiss Trump’s fat ass every chance she gets. She’s a cancer on the Congress and this country.
