Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) is angry and scared because it’s starting to look like she won’t be allowed on the ballot in Georgia for reelection if she loses a lawsuit filed by voters in her district wanting to disqualify her for being a participant in the January 6, 2021 insurrection at the U.S. Capitol.
Appearing on One America News (OAN) Tuesday, Greene sounded stressed out as she began ranting about how she’s being forced to testify in court on Friday as part of the suit filed against her:
“They are actually putting me on the witness stand on Friday! I am the first Republican member of Congress that is going to be forced to take the witness stand under oath and defend myself against a lie and something I never did.”
Well, if you didn’t do anything wrong, then you should welcome the opportunity to make that clear, Margie.
She then added:
“And so this is a precedence [sic] — it’s a very dangerous precedence [sic]. I cannot believe that I’m being forced to do this! I can’t believe this judge has not thrown this case out and seen it for what it is, which is nothing but a big funded scam for the Democrats trying to control our elections here in Georgia!”
Greene also claimed that her constituents are angry and flooding her office with calls.
“These radical leftists, these progressives want judges in the courtroom and bureaucrats to decide our elections! I’m not going to tolerate it! I’m going to be fighting back.”
And then Greene began begging for money, her voice rising to a shout as she told the OAN host:
“I have to pay for all of this myself. Anything people are willing to chip in I’m so grateful for because I have to pay for my attorneys, I have to pay for this entire defense!
“You know, you want to talk about it? It’s a big lie! They want to talk about the Big Lie. This is the big lie and they’re destroying democracy.”
However, it was what Greene had to say about cameras being allowed in the courtroom that revealed exactly what she and other Republicans are really afraid of: Sunlight and transparency:
“You know what the Democrats and the media are going to do. They’re going to cut and paste so they can sell a lie on their networks every single night on CNN and MSNBC because you know what? They claim they’re against destroying democracy. But they’re the very people that are destroying democracy.”
She sounds terrified, doesn’t she? Good. She deserves to be.
