3:48Now PlayingAn interview on Australian TV with Marjorie Taylor Greene abruptly ended this week when Greene became so angry at the interviewer that they simply couldn't proceed. Greene became belligerent when the host asked if MAGA world would accept the results of this year's elections, and began attacking the host and the network in an unhinged tirade. This prompted the host to ask the question again, but when it became apparent that Greene wasn't going to answer, the interviewer abruptly ended the segment and Greene ripped off her microphone. Ring of Fire's Farron Cousins explains what happened.

Marjorie Taylor Greene essentially got booted off of Australian television this week for not only refusing to answer a very simple question, but also for becoming exceptionally belligerent in attacking both the host and the network that was kind enough to have her on international television. So here's what happened. You had the Australian Broadcasting company, A, B, C, as it's known there. Of course, that is no affiliation to America's A, B, C. But anyway, a b, C news had her on with host Sarah Ferguson to talk about Julian Assange, of course, being released and sent back to Australia. And, uh, at one point, Sarah Ferguson decided, you know what? I actually have a very prominent figure in the MAGA movement with me. I'm gonna ask her another question that of course is not about Julian Assange. And she asked her, uh, if it doesn't go your way, if Biden wins, will you accept the result? It's a fair question, right? I mean, Marjorie Taylor Greene objected to certifying the 2020 election. She's repeatedly said the 2020 election was stolen, even though there's no evidence to support that. So why not ask her while you have her? Greene responded, what does this have to do with Julian Assange? I thought that's what we were supposed to be talking about. What network is that? What is this a, b, C in Australia? Is she getting her marching orders from the Democrat party? Is this what you decided to come up with today?
Sarah Ferguson kept her cool and she asked, okay, you're a prominent figure in US politics, first debates tomorrow. Uh, the result of the election is on the minds of not just of Americans, but of the whole world. So it's a natural point of curiosity, she said, and then she added, but I understand that we've reached the end of the questions that you want to answer. So thank you for talking to us about Julian Assange and for joining the program. So she effectively straight up ended the interview and said, you're obviously not gonna answer questions. So by, at which point Marjorie Taylor Greene become, uh, became even more infuriated, ripped off her microphone and walked away. Now, of course, she was not in studio in Australia for this, but she made her point very clear. And this is what these idiots do. Now, I've done television interviews.
I, I've been on international television. Uh, let me tell you, you're gonna get questions that are off topic. Sometimes you're going to get thrown things that may seem out of left field. You're gonna be asked things every now and then that are not related to the topic that you agreed to come on television for. That happens every single day in media across the country. And if you cannot handle that like a mature, professional adult, then don't agree to do interviews. I mean, I've been thrown some seriously radical questions that were based on conspiracy theories, uh, during
Interviews before, and you roll with it. You, you talk about how wow, that, uh, you know, is a bit of a ridiculous question, and I don't think there's any truth to it, but you can handle the situation, okay? Marjorie Taylor Greene clearly cannot, she cannot accept the fact that people have questions that they want answers to, and she doesn't want to give them those answers.
