Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.) felt the taunts of irony on Wednesday while temporarily presiding over a House session. The Georgia representative called for decorum in the chamber and was greeted by bursts of laughter from her Democratic colleagues.
“Members are reminded to abide by decorum of the House,” she said in an attempt to quiet down assembled members during a floor speech by House Majority Leader Steve Scalise (R-La.). Instead, the room erupted in boisterous laughter, prompting Green to repeatedly bang her gavel, not that it helped much.
Greene’s call for composure in the chamber is ironic given her long history of outbursts and heckling in Congress. During President Joe Biden’s State of the Union address earlier this year, Greene shouted “Liar!” after he claimed Republicans wanted to threaten entitlement programs like Social Security. Later, Greene and Rep. Lauren Boebert (R-Colo.) chanted “Build the Wall” as Biden pushed for immigration reform.
On Wednesday evening, Rep. Jimmy Gomez (D-Calif.) likened Greene’s plea for decorum to “Leonardo DiCaprio telling people to date people their own age.” Rep. Adam Schiff (D-Calif.) echoed his sentiments, tweeting that he hadn’t “laughed this hard in a while.”
