Marjorie Taylor Greene Roasted For Saying She Feels ‘Threatened’ By ‘Aggressive’ Congressman Jamaal Bowman

Multiple people reminded Greene of her instances of aggression and public harassment. Most notably, many posted a 2019 video of Greene, before running for Congress, following and screaming at David Hogg, a teenage survivor of the Parkland school shooting turned gun control advocate, while accusing him of being a paid political operative.

“MYG is fine with harassing David Hogg. She’s not fine with being called out by Jamaal Bowman,” one user who posted the clip of Greene, labeled a “conspiracy theorist,” haranguing Hogg, said.

 

Marcus Flowers, Greene’s Democratic opponent in the 2022 election, reminded voters, “As someone who ran against Marjorie Taylor Greene, I saw MAGA extremism up close. It is frightening and we cannot allow the Greene Team to continue to gain control.”

Finally, Rep. Bowman himself released a statement Thursday about Greene’s comments. Noting that “being characterized as ‘threatening’ or ‘intimidating’” is “what happened with Emmett Till, with Mike Brown, and with so many more” Black men and boys, Bowman went on to say, “Marjorie’s attack is beyond a dog-whistle,” and “she has put a target on my back.”

Given her track record, it’s unlikely Greene will back down or stop using such racially tinged tactics to lash out at her opponents, even as she engages in harsh words and behavior against those who disagree with her far-right stances. Meanwhile, social media users will quickly call out Greene and others on their race-baiting and hypocrisy.
