1. Isn't this libel?

[Hermit-The-Prog]

3. I hope a lawyer weighs in on your question. It looks like defamation of character to me.

[Blue_playwright]

8. Written word equals libel

Greene should have picked up an AP Stylebook & Libel Manual. Her staff most definitely should be already familiar with it.

[appmanga]

12. Probably not...

...AOC is a public figure so she has a higher bar to go over when it comes to defamation.

[Deuxcents]

2. This oughta be good

I think Q Greene is gonna meet some real women of the House she did not take seriously.

[brush]

5. I think you're right. I think she better steer clear of Rep. Tlaib...

who seems to have somewhat of a temper and Rep. Pressely is from the hood. AOC can trade barbs with her word for word And Rep. Omar can hold her own.

My money would be on the Squad.

20. Pressley has an excuse to be offended

that her name was left out of the tweet. Hey, lie about one (or three), lie about all.

4. As an aside, the first thing Kevin McCarthy said when he spoke this afternoon was that

Democrats were doing this to raise money. That's right . . . Democrats. So 'splain the line about "need every liberty-loving American to make an immediate donation," Kev.

[live love laugh]

25. +1

[dchill]

21. That's pure projeqshun.

[MerryBlooms]

6. greene is the new republican party, the vote today will prove it.

[BlueStater]

7. Sue her crazy ass.

That’s slander.

[uponit7771]

10. +1,

[Caliman73]

11. Libel.

Slander is spoken word, Libel is written. Both are defamatory statements.

[Mary Mac]

13. I don't think you mean White House

[SMC22307]

15. I can't keep up with all the bullshit hurled at AOC...

where is Klan of Greene Gables coming up with this "punch a cop" nonsense?

[diverdownjt]

22. When they were protesting high subway costs...

Someone in the crowd had a sign that said "punch that cop" so of course she said it because she was near it...I guess...I
don't understand how they think in this way....no logic no common sense no intelligence...not for me, stuff has to make
sense or I can't deal with it.

I could never be Q.

[SMC22307]

23. Ah, OK, thanks for the starting point.

I just Googled it and... right-wing media to the the "rescue."

[SergeStorms]

16. She learned grifting from the best.

Throw out some incendiary comments (truth doesn't matter here) to ignite the base, claim victimhood, then ask for money to defend them (not her, of course) then sit back and watch the rubes send in their stinking, wrinkled, burnt offerings.

She sat at the feet if the best grifter in the world, and she learned her lessons well.

I never used to hate people before. I was an easy going, live and let live sort of guy, then around the mid90s Newt came along, and it's been a steady slide into hate for a certain political party ever since. Then a piece of shit like MTG shows up, and I'm off the fucking rails.

[LanternWaste]

17. No doubt, MTG will allege it's merely a silly gotcha point...

A common bumper sticker for the incorrigible unable to admit error.

[JI7]

18. Greene is total trash

[Wawannabe]

19. MUST be expelled !

[live love laugh]

24. Expel her! Find somebody who is not an insurrectionist. nt
