I’m writing about the continuing drama from the wild exchange in the House Oversight Committee on Thursday.
Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) criticized Texas Democrat Rep. Jasmine Crockett’s eyelashes after Crockett attacked her for trying to raise a question about bias. Then Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) threw a hissy fit and got involved, insulting Greene, and Crockett tried to shoot back at Greene too, talking about a “bleach blonde, bad built, butch body.” It brought down the House when Comer replied, “A what now?”
Sen. John Fetterman (D-PA) said he apologized to the Jerry Springer Show for previously comparing it to the House. Then AOC went off on him, claiming the argument was somehow “racist and misogynistic” and that she was actually standing up for women. Now, there wasn’t anything racist in the fight, but if there was any misogyny maybe it was when AOC referred to MTG as “baby girl” and Crockett attacked Greene for her body.
Then Crockett made a huge mistake trying to capitalize off the bad behavior by selling merchandise about what she said but then failing to even spell her own name right on the T-shirt she was pitching.
Both Fetterman and Crockett were on “State of the Union” with Jake Tapper on Sunday talking about the issue. I wrote earlier about Fetterman’s comments where he called AOC’s criticism “absurd,” and he also took a bonus jab at Joe Biden’s waffling on Israel and how that was emboldening Hamas.
Their ego’s are unbearable. Stop getting on TV, and starving for attention, and get to work on this country. We are so screwed.
