Conservative Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.) heckled House Democrats on the steps of the Capitol on Friday, leading to several heated verbal altercations with veteran Democrats that were in full view of the assembled media.

Dozens of Democrats were assembled on the Capitol steps preparing to hold a news conference on their efforts to help women when Greene, known as MTG, began shouting at them for having just passed legislation to protect abortion rights, a response to a recent Texas law banning abortions.

"You should try the basic thing you're taught in church: Respect your neighbor!" Dingell said.

They cared for their sick and dying. Serious injuries with evidence of healing show that.

Conservatives show no evidence of these virtues.

IF that was me, I wouldn't have treated that cave-woman looking thing as nice as Dingell treated her. I'd have said way worse than she did to that thing.

You cannot reason, nor speak nicely TO those GQP/US Taliban Party folks.

Said he's tired of fighting "RINO's" and "Socialist Democrats". In other words, it's not that he's sick of her. It's that he's a punk-ass whiny-ass snowflake piece of shit who took his ball and went home because 1/6 and/or Adolf Taylor Greene didn't wipe us out.

He's no fucking better than she is.

to be against, and people to harangue.

Now leadership skills for the job? She has none.

Any dimwit can be against a lot of things. Try being constructive for once dear - or just STFU if your IQ isn't up to that.
