Marjorie Greene Has Disastrous Court Appearance Under Oath

Free Speech for People brought a lawsuit against Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) on behalf of her Georgia district. The organization claimed that she participated in the failed January 6 coup and, therefore, forfeited her right to run again under the U.S. Constitution.

Greene was not pleased that she had to testify under oath, but she did. People pointed to Secretary Hillary Clinton’s 11-hour testimony about her emails.

The Washington Post wrote:

‘In testimony in a suit trying to remove her from the ballot, the GOP congresswoman says she never encouraged violence.’

The Constitution’s 14th Amendment banned people who participated in an insurrection or rebellion from running for elected office. The representative from Georgia testified begrudgingly on Friday:

‘She declined to say whether unlawfully interfering with the counting of electoral votes in a presidential election would make someone “an enemy of the Constitution,” as she testified about her role in the Jan. 6, 2021, attack on the U.S. Capitol as part of a case seeking to disqualify from her from seeking reelection.’

Her responses tended to go into tentatively unrelated speeches such as saying “she never ever mean anything for violence.” Then, there was a stack of “I don’t knows” and “I don’t remembers:”

Check out how some Twitter followers’ responses to Greene’s testimony below:

‘”Your honor, the petitioners call Marjorie Taylor Greene to the stand.”‘ She is sworn in and her testimony begins. Follow live here. Background.’

‘That word “peaceful” is nowhere in this tweet, right?

Marjorie Taylor Greene:

“Well, you know, like …”

(the word “peaceful” indeed is not in her tweet)’

‘Question: “It’s true, though, that you liked a post that suggested that ‘a bullet to the head of Nancy Pelosi would be a quicker way to remove her as Speaker of the House than impeachment'”

Marjorie Taylor Greene: I have no idea who liked that comment.’

‘there have been so few consequences for Trumpworld criminals that you can understand why Marjorie Taylor Greene might think lying under oath is nbd’

‘”Your honor, the petitioners call Marjorie Taylor Greene to the stand.”‘ She is sworn in and her testimony begins. Follow live here. Background.’

‘”I never mean anything for violence,” said Marjorie Taylor Greene under oath in court testimony. “None of my words, never ever, mean anything for violence.”’

‘Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene’s public testimony in state administrative court, in response to a challenge to her eligibility to run for a second term, is being closely watched for potential details that might emerge about events leading to the riot.’

‘Marjorie Taylor Greene’s disqualification hearing is pretty interesting. Just heard testimony from a historian/ expert on the 24th Amendment. He talked about other insurrections in American History, (Shay’s and Whiskey Insurrections), for context about the 14th. Interesting.’
