green was in court defending

herself

amidst the efforts to disqualify her from the ballot in Georgia. thanks to her participation in the events of January 6.

So here are some of the most memorable moments from that day. In fact, you think Speaker Pelosi is a traitor to the country, right? I'm not going to answer that question. speculation, you have said that, haven't you lost Green that she is a merchant in the country? No, I didn't say that, okay, okay, put in pennies, try five, please, oh, no, wait, wait now, I think by not defending the uh, securing the border. That violates your oath of office Ms. Green, did you advocate for President Trump to impose martial law as a way to remain in power?

I don't remember it, so I don't deny that he did it. He just doesn't remember it. I do not remember. Remember, Mrs. Greene, if someone attempted to illegally interfere with the process of illegally counting electoral votes, that person would be an enemy of the Constitution, wouldn't you agree? Is it defined that way? Is it defined that well? I ask for your understanding if someone violated the law in a way designed to interfere with the electoral college vote counting process that person would be an enemy of the constitution, what you mean is disrupting congress, that's what you mean by doing something illegal to interfere with the counting process electoral votes disrupted congress like when the Democrats disrupted congress and had a sit-in in the chamber and stopped congress excuse me student, could you read Rachel?

I have the right to ask my questions and the way I would like to ask them. An honor, I ask you to listen to my question and simply respond. I can continue? Yes. If someone violated the law in an effort to interfere with the counting of electoral votes, that person would be an enemy of the Constitution. I'm right? Violating the law is illegal, over 700 people have been charged for what happened on January 6th and those people were trying to interfere with the legal process of counting votes for the electoral college. I guess so, they did, they stopped the elections. counts well and then those people would be enemies of the constitution you would agree with that right I don't know that I don't know I don't know if you define it that way and I'm sorry I just uh I just need to include one more because here's Margie's lawyer Tiller Green explaining who the real victim is in all of this.

Our country's elected leaders were victimized right here, in the very halls of Congress. Representative Greene was a victim of this attack. Her life was in danger, she thought. she was scared and confused her kids were frantic about what was happening and feared for her safety she feared for her safety when the mob she incited did the things she incited to do as I know we talk a lot about the republican victim complex , but man, when it happens, it's really just a parody of itself, so it was her in court that got caught lying under oath about what she called pelosi and then suddenly remembers when she realizes that they have evidence of this and doesn't remember if she suggested it or not. that Trump should impose martial law because who among us wouldn't forget a conversation like that and also pretend not to know if someone who interfered in the counting of electoral votes would be an enemy of the constitution now the question in all of this is whether Margie Teller Green should be disqualified of the ballot for participating in an insurrection the issue at hand here is section 3 of the 14th amendment to the constitution which says, and I will shorten it here because it is long, that no person may be a senator or representative in congress shall have participated in an insurrection or rebellion against him or he will have given aid or comfort to his enemies, so what we are trying to find out here is whether Marjorie Tiller Green participated in an insurrection.

Well, it's actually quite simple. Here is a video showing herself. Posted on his own Facebook account in the days leading up to January 6, the United States re-elected Donald J. Trump for four more years. He cannot be allowed to simply transfer power peacefully like Joe Biden wants and allow him to become our president because he did it. not win this election, it is being stolen and the evidence is that there is a large group of us who are organizing an effort to object to the electoral college votes for joe biden in key states where there is real evidence that this election has been stolen.

I am very condemned by what we are going to do on January 6th and it is historic and I think it is very, very important, on January 6th, if possible, there will possibly be a million or more people who will come to Washington to be there for this. "Historical event it is essential that everyone comes forward and shows the nation who we are. We are not a people who will remain silent in the night. We are not a people who will be pushed into socialism without stopping it," he says. She cannot be allowed to transfer power peacefully, meaning she was backing the insurrection that sought to stop the peaceful transfer of power.

She says that it is essential to show up, which means that on January 6th we are not the people who are going to quietly enter the night when we are not people who will be pushed into socialism without stopping it and you know what happened on January 6th , exactly what Marjorie Tiller Green was advocating for insurrection, a mob showed up at the capitol with exactly the intention of not allowing a peace. transfer of power so that we don't have to wonder if she participated in the insurrection because there is literally video evidence of her participation and her insurrection.

No one forced her to post that video on Facebook. She made a conscious decision to not just participate in January planning. 6 but proudly displaying that involvement like that disastrous court appearance you just heard clips of shows that she is a completely non-credible actress, someone who will lie through her teeth under oath, someone who will pretend to have lost her memory, someone She has to play dumb when she realizes she's been caught, but in terms of the issue at hand, whether she should be disqualified for participating in an insurrection, that issue was already demonstrated long before she took the witness stand. , was demonstrated at the moment when those insurgents followed his instructions and attacked. the capital I think should say this too I don't think she should be disqualified because she's Republican I honestly don't think so that would be a terrible precedent in terms of undermining our democratic process for partisan reasons if the Republicans want to elect a paper bag to represent them, go ahead , maybe they would have less sexual harassment scandals if they did, so I don't think Margaret like Green should be disqualified because she's a Republican, I think she should be disqualified because she violated the constitution, that's all.

Black and white and the fact that this is still a question blows my mind. Thousands of people stormed the capital of the United States seeking to assassinate Democrats and Mike Pence for standing in Trump's way by declaring himself the winner of an election in which he lost the margin. among others was responsible for that event by stoking those lies that push those people to show up, you can't violate the constitution and then pretend you didn't just because your insurrection failed the first time to find out if that disqualification will actually happen. obviously remains to be seen, but in terms of what should happen here, it couldn't be clearer, so what's going on here?

The judge in that case gives both parties until Thursday of this week, April 28, to present their follow-up. briefings on some details that were requested by that judge once he has to make the decision from him within a week, so we should expect that sometime next week, but the judge does not have the final say. This decision is a recommendation to the Georgia Secretary of State, who is Republican Brad Raffensberger, it is Raffensberger who decides whether or not Green is qualified to be on the ballot. He could also say that he himself does not have the authority to make that decision.

In any of these cases, whether he considers it. she is qualified or unqualified or refuses to make a decision one way or another, there is always the opportunity to appeal Raffensberger's decision, which would go to the Fulton County Superior Court and his decision would be to appeal to the Court of Appeals of Georgia and ultimately before the Georgia supreme court. So those are all the options. I'm not going to weigh in on what I think will happen because it doesn't matter, but I will say that we have all collectively existed long enough to know not to put our hopes in the hands of a Republican and granted brad raffensberger stood up to trump when he tried to get him to get 11,780 votes in georgia, but at the same time raffensberger also defends georgia's voter suppression law as if we're just setting ourselves up for failure if we're actually waiting for a republican official to swoop in like a white knight and save us, so instead To invest all of our time and energy into trying to disqualify Marjory Taylor Green from the ballot as clearly as it is that she should be disqualified, I think probably the most effective use of our time is to use the circus act that is Marjorie Tiller Green and show voters across the country that this is what the Republican Party is all about.

When you vote for the Republican Party, you are supporting these people, people who are more concerned about attacking trans children and punishing companies that don't toe the party line and calling anyone who disagrees with them pedophiles and banning books and stripping women of their bodily autonomy and, oh yeah, trying to stage coups that undermine the results of free democracy and fair elections while Democrats try to pass laws that cap the cost of insulin and legalize marijuana and make it make child care and universal preschool free and allow the government to negotiate lower drug prices and wean us off of fossil fuels, they are the perfect Democrats.

God no, but if the Democrats aren't giving you everything you want, that's the answer: Letting the Republicans win and getting nothing, there's a reason Republicans rely so much on those culture war issues that they don't. They have nothing to do with it and it is because they have nothing to offer. on the path of politics on the path of improving their lives, you have Republicans in Texas who are so corrupt, so incompetent that they can't even hold power and get re-elected, you have Republicans in Florida who are about to leave a group of residents with higher taxes because their goal is to take away Disney's self-governing status in retaliation for having a political opinion and they get re-elected, there are Republicans who protect fossil fuel companies and leave us dependent on oil states. while those same countries are waging genocides and getting re-elected, there's a reason they focus on those culture war issues and it's because it gets attention better than politics, that's on purpose, it's a distraction because they know that if they had to address real issues on the agenda that they would lose, so their strategy is to deceive you with issues of hairdressers, pedophiles, socialism and wars at Christmas and so on.

Do not belive that. The fact is that we have a choice here. between two matches and their priorities couldn't be more different

marjorie

taylor

green represents the future of one of those matches and the only way to change it is to not depend on her being disqualified by someone else you know because for every one of them that gets kicked Outside the polls, ten more telegrams are going to appear in elections across the country. It is to offer Republicans a repudiation of the polls. It is to show up and show them that these marginal lunatics who defend marginal ideas are a losing proposition only when they only lose when They are stripped of power they will realize that they need to change course and that doesn't happen alone, it is up to us to make that happen listen to my interview with Senator Schatz where we talked about his now viral moment. josh hawley in the senate what would you like to see done about legalizing marijuana and canceling student debt and the latest on climate change, click the thumbnail here on the screen or check out the interview playlist at my youtube channel
