WHO WINS THIS CATFIGHT? Marjorie Taylor Greene vs Jasmine Crockett
Proving that women really are the best thing that has ever happened to Congress, Marjorie Taylor Greeneand Jasmine Crockett (and also Alexandria Ocasio Cortez for no reason) got into it at a House Oversight Committee hearing.
The hearing was supposed to be about holding Attorney General Merrick Garland in contempt of Congress for refusing a subpoena on the matter related to President Biden’s interview with special counsel.
The fight began when Greene asked if any democrats on the committee were employing the daughter of Judge Juan Merchan who is the judge presiding over the current trial in New York regarding alleged inappropriate payments from Donald Trump to Stormy Daniels for a non-disclosure agreement. When Greene asked the question, Rep. Crockett asked “Please tell me what that has to do with Merrick Garland?”
It should be noted that at this time Rep. Jamie Raskin, who seems to be getting off scot-free in the media, commented “Is she a porn star?” sarcastically seeming to compare Greene to Stormy Daniels (who was a porn star).
Crockett went on to rhetorically or sarcastically ask if Greene knew what the hearing was about which was when Greene launched the first personal grenade saying that Crockett’s large fake eyelashes were impairing her vision to see what the hearing was about.
This is a pretty funny burn from Greene because Crockett’s eyelashes are objectively massive and probably do impair vision.
Likely because she can’t let anyone else have attention, Alexandria Ocasio Cortez (AOC) at that point began screeching that Greene’s comments should be stricken from the record and she should be forced to apologize. AOC even tried to have a cool girl moment and called Greene “baby girl.” It was deeply cringey.
Greene then tried to agree to strike her comments from the record but AOC would absolutely not be quiet for even two seconds in her very high pitched tirade. In the end Greene refused to apologize and then Crockett came back swinging asking a sarcastic question to the Chair (Rep. Comer) which called Greene a “bleached blonde bad built butch body.”
Greene is known to work out and have blonde hair, so the punch landed.
Chair Comer was absolutely body slammed with confusion at this point. He asked Crockett to clarify which she couldn’t do because she was kind of laughing and also the committee had descended into chaos.
So who won? Greene starting it off with the big eyelashes barb? Or Crockett with her alliterative burn? Or maybe it was AOC by volume alone?
Whoever should take the belt, I think we can all agree that if Congress is going to be incompetent, power hungry, jerks as they have literally always been; at least they can provide a little fun for the people back home.
