“Joe Biden is a liar. I represent the American people and I was honored to call him a liar that he is in the people’s house and not allow him to get away with it.”
February 9, 2023

All in all, a great night for Marjorie Taylor Greene and the people across America who support both her revisionist history of the Republican Party and her as a spokesperson for white grievance. With the accelerated demographic change in the United States, those types of people make up less and less of the electorate every year, so it's necessary to have lightning rods like Greene and Trump to excite them into going to the polls. Because without them the Republican Party is toast and they know it.

At least that's the theory anyway and the deal the Republicans have made with white trash like Marjorie Taylor Greene. And the country is all the poorer for it.

Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) has no regrets and is not sorry for shouting at U.S President Joe Biden and calling him a liar during his State of the Union address Tuesday.

Appearing on Fox News’ Sean Hannity program on Wednesday night, Greene explained herself after host Hannity described it as “one of the best parts of last night’s speech,” puffing up Greene for her actions saying, “I personally loved every moment of it.”

“I thought it was pretty impressive that the president would enter the people’s house and try to lie to the American people about the economy, the border, and even ignore the fact that he allowed the Chinese spy balloon to spy on America,” Greene started.

“But when he continued the lie accusing Republicans of preparing to cut Social Security and Medicare, we couldn’t take it. So I—along with my colleagues—were calling him out, I think I was just the loudest one because I stood up and screamed ‘Liar!’ and the reason why I did that, Sean, is because they have used my image and my name in leading the effort for that when we have not had one single meeting in the GOP conference talking about cutting Social Security and Medicare.

“Joe Biden is a liar. I represent the American people and I was honored to call him a liar that he is in the people’s house and not allow him to get away with it.”

Greene also had some choice words for the women of The View who criticized her fashion attire.

Greene was then asked about her controversial choice of attire which also made headlines; including on The View. Fox aired parts of the conversation of the panel discussing Greene’s white coat.

“Occasionally I get yelled at by old white women and I always know they watch The View because there are some nasty women on that show,” Greene said.
