Newly Revealed Speech by Greene

This is an audio speech of Marjorie Taylor Greene talking about Obama and 9/11.

This speech hits all the high points:

Voting for Obama was racist- check

9/11 both didn't happen but also an inside job - check

That Obama was president during 9/11 - check

That Obama opened the border for Muslims - check


In all this is part of a much larger and persistent effort by Republicans to memory hole the Bush administration and attach those years to Obama.

The "Obama was president during 9/11" lie really wraps my mind around the axle because its so insane I am often left speechless. It just doesn't make any sense.

Obama ignored all the those tweets and let the Japanese bomb Pearle Harbor - it was a shame that happened on his watch. I forgave him for that indiscretion though, because I heard the White House's internet was down that day.

MY GAWD!!!! I guess really cannot fix stupid!

Someone needs to figure out a way to get her the fuck out, seriously!

She is a special kind of stupid, her and her Orange boss.

I heard it wasn't Pearl Harbor. Obama had Pearl Bailey to the white House for Manhattans and she got bombed.

I hadn't realized that.

When did W serve again?

How does this creature dress herself in the mornings? She is beyond stupid.

I think we should continue to ridicule these clowns. Keep making fun of them because well they deserve it and since they crave attention let's give it to them in spades.


Plus laughter is the best medicine and we could certainly use a landfill of laughs. Are you having a Laugh!

and he served two terms. So this Greene woman is jumping back to the first year of the GW Bush administration to blame President Obama for 9/11. Sick, sick.

Greene was expected to face Democratic IT specialist Kevin Van Ausdal, but he withdrew from the race on September 11, 2020, after his wife filed for divorce and he decided to move to Indiana to live with family. This left Greene unopposed for the general election.



Two hours after filing period ends, Democrat Josh Mahony drops out of U.S. Senate race against Tom Cotton. Seems to be contagious

She needs to be censured and then expelled from Congress.
UGA needs to rescind her degree. The GA GOP must denounce her.
