Speaker Nancy Pelosi slammed House Republican leaders for not doing more to rebuke GOP Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene of Georgia over her shocking rhetoric and past statements, saying the focus must be on leadership.
"What I'm concerned about is the Republican leadership in the House of Representatives, who is willing to overlook, ignore those statements," Pelosi said at her weekly news conference, days after CNN reported Greene repeatedly indicated support for executing prominent Democratic politicians — including Pelosi — in 2018 and 2019 before being elected to Congress. The statements were part a CNN KFile review of hundreds of posts and comments from Greene's Facebook page.
Greene is also facing criticism for a video of her confronting Parkland shooting survivor David Hogg before she was elected to Congress went viral Wednesday. And last week, other students who survived the Parkland, Florida, school shooting and families of the victims are calling for Greene's resignation, after comments surfaced that showed her agreeing with people who said the 2018 shooting was a "false flag" operation, remarks Pelosi called special attention to Thursday. The California Democrat also criticized Greene's placement on the House Committee on Education and Labor.
"Assigning her to the Education Committee when she has mocked the killing of little children at Sandy Hook Elementary School, when she has mocked the killing of teenagers in high school at the Marjory Stoneman Douglas high school — what could they be thinking?" Pelosi asked Thursday. "Or is thinking too generous a word for what they might be doing? It's absolutely appalling, and I think the focus has to be on the Republican leadership of this House of Representatives for the disregard they have for the death of those children."

Pelosi slams Republican response to Marjorie Taylor Greene
“The secret of freedom is educating the people, whereas the secret of tyranny is keeping them ignorant.” – Robespierre
@ghij347dereg I’m not a Trump supporter in the least, not sure why you thought that
@Gage King Did I say that? No!. I said statistically Dems are more educated. There are educated/smart Reps and there are uneducated/dumb Dems. People who have an education are more likely to and know how to do research and verify facts. Doesn’t mean you have to have a degree in a field such as history. I have an MBA in Finance, I very much know how to look up and understand issues related to numbers. Trump only dropped unemployment 1.5 percentage… which is not a whole lot in the grand scheme of things. Not to mention it was already on downward trend. Yet the GOP wants to make it that Trump was a savior when it comes to jobs and industry. He failed at most of what he touched, which is verifiable if you take to time to look as opposed to listen to bias news.
You hate what America is and where its headed. You reminisce on the worst parts of pre 1860s America. You offer nothing. Good thing that you are fading. No way around it. No classic American “can do optimism” with you at all. Your original U.S. ancestors would’ve been on the opposite side of you.
@bonecrayon yeah your right i completely lack critical thinking skills
“Donald Trump has claimed that the economic fallout following the coronavirus pandemic is “God testing” him to rebuild what he called “the greatest economy in the history of the world” – independent,
Im so miss led “President Donald Trump mentioned God in public remarks during his first 200 days more than Presidents Barack Obama and George W. Bush over the same period of their presidencie” – Rutter graphics, but good thing I have smart very educated people like you to correct me “We know that God hears our prayer,” – Donald Trump. Oh wait these quotes and stats say otherwise so who here lacks critical thinking 🤔
@William Hunt What? Give a citation for that. The economy was well before a global disaster struck and we had to shut down. Biden would have done no better. And yes you confirm that you believe people with degrees are more likely to care about research which wouldn’t matter unless you argue the other side doesn’t. You think they are less intelligent
Nancy should put a restraining order on her,, 1000 ft.
LOL Nancy should measure the distance that would require MTG to be on the second level all the way in the corner whenever they’re on the floor. Can you imagine every time they gather to vote she has to sit in the top corner! I would love it.
@The Ancestors NOT EVEN a little bit FUNNY. taylor greene must be REMOVED.
Really!!! a piece paper LMFAO. If she was in danger a piece of paper won’t do jack.
The heck, are they just throwing names in a hat and drawing random representatives for some of these jobs or what in the world are they thinking?
She is a “yellow dog” Republican.
@Prxperty aoc is pushing for progressive policy, your lady literally says fake news and believes a school shooting was a setup for some gun control narrative. Come up with a better example or stay silent bud. Ignorance and idiocy can be fixed, please try a bit in life. Thanks!
@Good Looking man got any evidence for that assertion?
@Falsenarrative Cults This is the part where if I was a liberal I’d just call you a racist bc I’m Mexican but I won’t do that lol but I mean if she wants to think that well It’s on her. I’m just saying Greene is a lot smarter than aoc and those radical progressive policies. Socialism hah.
@Falsenarrative Cults which assertion? Either way Google it , Try Willie brown Kamala Harris
Greene literally called a Parkland survivor a coward simply because he was advocating for gun reform. That’s pretty f*cking sick if you ask me.
@Debi Barrington And apparently, for those 17 Parkland victims, living was not their right.
Gun reform is cowardish
Dopey putin-bots out in force…and farce
@Gone Gaming. That’s a false story. Teachers have backed that he was there and pulled him into a classroom. He left after the shootings then returned to get the interviews. Look it up.
This is why most signers of the constitution believed in duels.
She harassed a kid who’d been through a nightmare, wth were they thinking?
@Jorge Flores) Well, think of the hell those kids went through; friends and family gunned down senselessly. When the younger generation NEEDS to lecture their elders that are in a position to DO SOMETHING yet they twiddle their thumbs and just send “thoughts and prayers” and play politics instead of putting forth some real action and legislation you know it’s bad.

@Roger Jones 😳what the f%*#! You just showed your hand there, Cleatus: 3 Kings – KKK. If intelligence was an 18 wheeler, you’d be driving on 2 tires, Bruh.
@Roger Jones yeah, like those meth heads, neo nazis, and white supremacists are just doing a bang up job raising their kids in a wholesome environment . Good lord man, your arguments are just terrible.
There is not a single company in the United States that would put up with one employee threatening another. The financial risk is too great.
There needs to be a risk for when it happens in our Government, too.
Again… She wasn’t hired. She was elected. Totally different rule book.
@David Foster not to the job she’s been appointed to
@David Foster That’s why she needs to be expelled instead.
My old high school friend is a teacher at that school. They still have nightmares of that day. Every Valentines day is a terrible reminder of that awful day. She needs to be removed! Such a disgrace!
JV a good
Hey People where’s the 2k you were promised? Well billions are being sent around the world? WICKED LEADERS OPPRESS YOU and refuses to help you because they don’t care about you.
Jesus loves you.
Jesus help you
*HE WHO IS WITHOUT SIN CAST THE FIRST STONE*
But if you do not forgive others their sins, your Father will not forgive your sins.
Mathew 6:15
2“Do you think those Galileans were worse sinners than all the other people from Galilee?” Jesus asked. “Is that why they suffered? 3Not at all! And you will perish, too, unless you repent of your sins and turn to God. 4And what about the eighteen people who died when the tower in Siloam fell on them? Were they the worst sinners in Jerusalem? 5No, and I tell you again that unless you repent, you will perish, too.”
Luke 13
@Truthisfreedom light, the Republicans won’t agree on anything that would benefit WE THE PEOPLE.
Signed,
An Independent Warrior 🇺🇸
@Truthisfreedom light You should take a look at Bernie Sanders.
Democrats persecute anyone who disagreed with them. Totalitarian regime with CNN spreading fake news propaganda…Bye election cheaters…
In the UK “ she would not have been in office for one day, after that revelation, and properly face criminal charges….
In England she would experience pies in her face
@Mark Cicero it’s evident that this generation of Americans are lost in the web. We need to bring back civic education ASAP. You trolls learned nothing about US and world history. Did you breast fed hate and racism from your mothers. I know the Germans and the Poles did throughout the centuries.
@Ram Barlev I’m not from this generation lad, and I’m quite well versed in history. If you knew anything about American history, as you pretend to, you would know my attitude, and my way of thinking is not confined to this generation anyway. My ancestors wrote the first amendment, and it doesn’t matter what you think of it. I revear it. More than that, I give it plenty of use. If anything I’m more like my ancestors than others you’ll find commenting here on YouTube. I’m not fashionable, I’m rooted. There is nothing modern, or new fangled in my thinking. I am the embodiment of my ancestors. You don’t like me. You wouldn’t have liked them either.
When America stopes voters suppression it will become a true democracy, equal rights for all its citizens, until that is done America is not worthy to criticise any other country “

She was tweeting House Speaker’s location in the bunker and updated the terrorist when she was removed because of her tweets.
@Deborah Freedman also, some folks walked out, including the military.
I think it was that twit from Colorado- Boebert.
Another doozie.
@Mark Cicero That’s the difference between you and I. I know how to differentiate facts and idiotic fiction.
Democrats persecute anyone who disagreed with them. Totalitarian regime with CNN spreading fake news propaganda…Bye election cheaters..
@Lanuiiohu Sukikiya Unlike the Republicans Trump supporters who actually tried to EXECUTE people who disagree with them so that their TYRANT leader get to keep his power?!
The irony.
We should stop calling this women Karen’s and call them Greene
I’m on board. 💯
#facts
Why is Greene allowed to mingle with people she has threatened?She is clearly unstable.
These right extremists can shoot half of the Democrats politicians, or even regular people and they still won’t condemned their actions. This is where their heart is. If you are a decent human being and still a Republican, what are you still doing there?
And if you’re a party without any ideas, why do you exist?
We say the same about you !
Why is it ‘radical’ to hold someone accountable for their actions? We learn in kindy that actions have consequences.
It’s radical when YOU are the one they want to hold accountable.
I thought the term Republicans used was “cancelling” when they wanted to complain about people who publicize their despicable words and deeds. It’s only free speech when they are the ones talking.
Just when you think that the republicans couldn’t get any worse…
They do

You must have brain damage if you think the Republicans are the roblem

Greene claims to be a Christian, but she does some of the most un-Christ-like things.
C. Merritt, “Beware of Wolves in sheep’s clothing” (Matthew 7:15).
The last Christian died on the cross.
Christ not problem, only Christians with problems .

Greene is a blight on America. She needs to be removed from any political seat.
Yessssssss
Pelosi is a blight on America. She needs to be removed from any political seat.
There, fixed it for you!!!
Time for Marjory to go. She has nothing to offer but meanness, chaos, and danger to anyone who challenges her.
THESE CULT LEADERS ARE WITHIN THE HOUSE!!! Marjorie “greenbean” is a prime example.
