Republican congresswoman and QAnon fanatic Marjorie Taylor Greene fired off a lengthy Twitter tirade on Saturday, slamming her Republican colleagues who told reporters that they were growing increasingly frustrated with her efforts to delay congressional business by forcing procedural votes to adjourn the House each day.
In her Twitter rant, the Georgia Rep. shared an article published by The Hill that detailed criticisms from fellow GOP House members, including Reps. Ann Wagner (Mo.), David Joyce (Ohio) and Tim Walberg (Mich.).
Several Republicans told the news outlet that “the futile procedural votes from Greene, which require members to walk to the House floor, are disrupting committee hearings and virtual constituent meetings, making them less effective at representing their own constituents.”
In response to the article, Greene tweeted, “I dedicate this thread to my GOP Colleagues,” and, “The headline of this article should read, ‘Marjorie Cares About The People Not The Politicians And Refuses To Join The Swamp.’
“I didn’t get voted into office by politicians, I serve The People,” she added, before launching into a series of rebukes against her GOP colleagues who she said “don’t share the outrage that Republican voters feel about the Democrat’s radical agenda!”
“As if a $1.9 trillion dollar woke progressive spending spree with only 9% to covid isn’t enough,” Greene continued. “Dems destroying women’s rights and sports, wiping out religious freedoms, defunding the police, HR1, and erasing gender completely… doesn’t seem to be enough to make some of my GOP colleagues feel like they can actually stand up out of a chair and walk to go vote for a motion to adjourn.”
“They’d rather sit on committee zoom meetings where they are mute and their hands are tied doing nothing,” added the congresswoman, who was removed from her committee assignments last month over past social media posts advancing conspiracy theories and supporting violence against top Democratic leaders like Speaker Nancy Pelosi (Calif.)
Greene then explained that she calls “for motions to adjourn so that the Democrats can have at least another hour to come to their senses before they vote for this kind of crap.”
“Oddly, some of my GOP colleagues don’t share my outrage and are annoyed with me… for trying to do anything I possibly can to disrupt and stop the Democrats from destroying our country.”
Greene then further railed against her colleagues, saying she was motivated to run for office after she “along with MOST Republican voters lost full confidence in MANY of the Republicans we elect.”
“Here is a little reminder for you,” Greene concluded, directly addressing her fellow Republican lawmakers. “Trump is not on the ticket in 2022.”
“So you better think hard about how your whining sounds to your voters, who really don’t care about how far you have to walk to vote,” she said.

It’s unfortunate that some of my GOP colleagues, who have been in Congress a lot longer than me, don’t share the outrage that Republican voters feel about the Democrat’s radical agenda!

They’re annoyed because it was a little inconvenient and I didn’t tell them ahead of time, so they could just complain to me and try to convince me not to do it.
