Marjorie Taylor Greene Puts Foot In Her Mouth During Hearing with Border Patrol

"Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.) was fact-checked by the chief of the U.S. Border Patrol after she claimed agents had found an “explosive” near the southern border in January.
Greene highlighted her claim about this so-called threat in a question to Border Patrol Chief Raul Ortiz during a Wednesday Homeland Security Committee hearing in Texas. However, Ortiz didn’t clarify the matter when speaking to lawmakers. Afterward, Greene repeated her claim via a tweet, along with a picture of the alleged device, accusing “the Cartel” of “planting bombs” and “murdering Americans everyday through drugs and crime.”
Fox News national correspondent Bill Melugin shared the tweet, adding that he had spoken to a “high-level CBP source” that said the object was a fake. “While it appeared nefarious, I’m told it did not contain any explosives,” he tweeted.
Shortly afterward, Ortiz chimed in with a tweet."

She wouldn’t get a job in the private sector that require a federal background check.

[@rgrifferon]

Bad thing about it, is that she’ll probably be selected as Trumps vice pre, or Kari Lake, all are Lunatics.

[@zeebest1004]

She’s actually said she’s “not going to be confidential” and she gets regular security briefings??!

[@Bxr400]

You don’t give this fool anything confidential pertaining to the country!!! 😵‍💫😵‍💫😵‍💫🤥🤥🤥

Yeah, that might have to stop.

[@Pops5033]

not for nothing but could you not use the word "briefs" in any of it's forms when talking about perjury failure green? i find that even when used in the same paragraph i break out in hives and have nightmares for weeks usually involving her and an old sears catalog.

[@iliketowatch.]

Seriously. Some of that confidential information that she throws around to gain political points could get undercover agents killed.

[@iliketowatch.]

@@Pops5033 "The socks stay on!"

[@irenecunningham9782]

“But I’m not going to be confidential.” This is EXACTLY why she has no business being on the Homeland Security committee.

[@nelsonquintanilla748]

This is our southern border criminals are coming here that's why the crime rate is so high

[@daffydaggers3156]

Yeah. What a 🤪she is, huh!!

[@donnalearn]

She needs her security clearances taken away. She verbally said she didn't care if it was confidential or not, she was going to talk about it anyway.

[@ragbag46]

The problem is MTG is too simple, with a non political background, no training in debating, poorly educated, basically a simpleton without any basic understanding of what’s important, purely focused on her own feelings not really caring about anyone else.😢

[@yeeloongong]

In this context she is perfectly reflecting the shallow self centered poorly educated people who voted for her to be there. Just like workers want a worker to represent them teachers a teacher to represent them the deluded snowflakes wanted one too

[@vickgardner3515]

None of that matters. The Melted Blonde Donkey is dog whistling out loud to trumptards, with whom her messages resonate. She is gauging her effect by donations... and they keep rolling in, because trumptards believe her without question. What the Green Goblin is doing is stoking outrage amongst trumptards to ensure a nationwide insurrection when trump loses. Actually, all trump has to do is be nominated and we are screwed. If he wins... can you picture "retribution"? If he loses, you know trumptards will revolt. Either way, our representative democracy by elections is in grace danger... and we may be in for civil war.

[@jeanpreston4142]

She probably thinks she can do surgery because she's a patriot. Lord. Help us.

[@irenegalvan7996]

She doesn't even know what she is doing just like when there was no formula for the babies not once did she hold a baby or had mothers around her at least showing that she is doing something for those mothers she could of found out by any store that had formula and get them out there but know she was blaming the democrats for anything that the republicans were responsible for they have to get her out

[@michelebenedosso3899]

She DOES have a tremendous ego and is arrogant; she THINKS she knows everything- but doesn’t. She shouldn’t be in Congress. It’s dangerous….

[@busterandloulou]

She needs to have her clearance revoked. If she can’t or won’t keep confidential information confidential, she has no business being able to access it and is a danger to our government.

[@Nurjamila1]

Like the former guy did, she & the other republicans show us who they are every day.

[@susanbrogan6610]

This is why she shouldn't be in congress!! Sadly nothing will be done about her disclosing top secret information.

[@JM-wu8bh]

MTG knowingly disclosed classified info. Her Clearance needs to be reviewed

[@fastltg4992]

How does she gets to just bypass that the material is classified! She clearly can't be trusted with classified material

[@rayaguila1343]

She is not prepared period.

[@robertharriman7267]

Surely this justifies her removal from this committee. Her presence undermines it in the first place but this is simply unacceptable.

[@shroud1390]

Rules dont apply to her obviously. Remember this when the gov goes after her and she claims weaponization….its like they think a bank robber in a Trump shirt is targeted because of the shirt….

That would be if they cared about rules to which none of them do, they kicked out the ones who did.

[@Grishrak]

She should have been removed when she said she wants to “divorce” from America. That violates the Constitutional Oath she took to have her job. She is no longer an American so she shouldn’t be in government.

[@robinelizabeth386]

And tell me, what exactly has she done that is acceptable?

Ana made me laugh when she said "the only thing in no mans land is MTG's brain", lol. 😂

[@monica012077]

I cackled at "sack of dirt." 😅

[@AdamBladeTaylor]

So she openly violated federal law by sharing classified intel. And... nothing. Her security clearance wasn't immediately revoked (which is required by law). She wasn't removed from office (which is called for when someone illegally shares classified information). Nope, she gets to ruin the country's security, and nothing will be done about it. If it was a Democrat who did this, they would have been removed from the room in handcuffs.

[@tioswift3676]

You cannot actually believe that 😂😂😂 no f***** way any democrat would be put in handcuffs. Democrats never face repercussions for their bull****

[@beanabovethefrank1499]

No, she got ahold of Drumpf's magic wand and declassified them before blurting them out on camera.

[@davidgarcia8343]

Because the Republicans believe if you do anything in public in front of everyone then it ain’t against the law. Crazy, right?

[@jeandorsainvil4227]

Facts..

[@leidaoneill3225]

She does ANYTHING for media attention!! She doesn't care if it hurts on going investigations as long as she can get away with it!!! Is anybody going to hold her accountable for all this? That horrible person shouldn't even be sitting there to start with, what an idiot!!!!!😡

MTG is too stupid to understand how security actually works. Someone simply placed a suspicious looking item to test to see if anyone was paying attention to the area. So instead of keeping this low key, and being able to watch this area in secret, they now know for sure "don't go there".
