4:03Now PlayingMarjorie Taylor Greene went off crazier than usual on Tuesday morning in a post on social media. Greene demanded that the Republican caucus in the House spend the rest of their days working on ways to punish every single person that is involved in Donald Trump's legal problems, saying that Democrats have pushed us into a "full blown dictatorship." Clearly she doesn't own a dictionary, but that's beside the point. Greene is demanding that Republicans abuse their power, and that is something that routinely gets overlooked by the press, as Ring of Fire's Farron Cousins explains.

Marjorie Taylor Greene suffered yet another emotional meltdown on social media on Tuesday morning, claiming that, uh, the Democrats have somehow put us into a full blown dictatorship because Donald Trump was convicted on 34 felony counts. Here is what Marjorie Taylor Greene put on social media. She says, quote, we have our weekly GOP conference this morning at 9:00 AM It better be about how we are stopping the Democrats and their full on dictatorship and war against President Trump and all of his supporters. Because so far I have not heard a peep outta anyone in leadership about a Plan Zero and more. Committee hearings is not going to cut it. While the Supreme Court stepping in and stopping it would be great. What are we doing?
I'll tell you what you're doing. You're ignoring actual issues that affect millions of Americans every single day by whining about something that happened to a guy that you like. I mean, to put it as bluntly in a nutshell as humanly possible, that's what this is. Mar the guy, Marjorie Taylor Greene likes got in trouble for something he did. So she wants to grind Congress to a halt to save that dude that, I don't know, maybe she has a crush on. I don't know. But that is what she is saying here. Marjorie Taylor Greene is a part of a congress that has stati, statistically, excuse me, done less than any other Congress in the history of this country. 22 bills passed last year, the lowest ever. And here she is saying, we're not gonna deal with economic issues. We're not gonna address the appropriations bill that we're supposed to be working on to keep the government funded. I want everybody to focus a hundred percent on saving Donald Trump because I love him so much and I just can't take it.
Who gives a crap? Like genuinely people can't afford their prescription medications. Marge. People cannot afford to put food on the table. Two thirds of American families, according to a new poll out this week, said that they are struggling financially to get by to survive. Okay? 200 million people in this country don't know if they're gonna be able to eat tomorrow, don't know if they're gonna be able to afford rent this month or their mortgage payment. They don't know if they're gonna be able to get the brake fixed on their car because they can't afford it. And you are sitting there whining about a billionaire who got in trouble for doing something that he decided to do. You have real power here. You could do something to help hundreds of millions of American families, and you're whining and crying like a little heartbroken teenager. 'cause the guy you like got in trouble. That is insanity. Now to mention the
Fact that what she's also doing is basically asking Congress to abuse their power to step in and save Trump. And she's asking the Supreme Court to abuse their power by stepping in to save Trump, even though there's no appeal in any case at all, sitting in front of them regarding Donald Trump's legal problem here. So, you know, she's asking people to abuse their power. She's abusing her own power. She's ignoring the power that she has to actually make people's lives better because she's not a representative of the people she is. Well, let's face it, I think Jasmine Crockett nailed it. Bleach blonde bad built butch body, who also happens to be a raging narcissist that has no interest in helping anybody but herself. And the guy she has a crush on.
