Marjorie Taylor Greene has spoken out after Jasmine Crockett is said to have filed a trademark application for the phrase “bleach blonde bad-built butch body”.

Half an hour into House Oversight Committee proceedings last Thursday, the Republican lawmaker lined up the Democrat in her crosshairs insulting her “fake eyelashes”. While the House devolved into chaos with Ms Green also taking aim at Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez’s intelligence, the congresswoman’s insults were ruled not to have flouted rules.

Scratching her head at the decision, Ms Crockett asked whether making remarks about somebody’s “bleach blond, bad-built butch body” was also allowed – a clear jibe at Ms Greene.

Ms Crockett is now looking to capitalise from the feud, with her campaign purportedly filing a trademark for the scathing alliterative remark, according to documents viewed by Fox News. The Texas representative plans to create a suite of hats, hoodies, socks, and t-shirts branded with the phrase, as per the documents.

This is the type of epic trolling that Fetterman had actually done to Dr. Oz during his Senate campaign (regardless of what Fetterman thought of the goings-on between Crockett, AOC, and MTG nowadays). She has effectively shut the howler monkey down leaving her speechless and responding defensively for the first time.

1. Love me some Jasmine Crockett!

[JustAnotherGen]

2. She started it

Now she tries a 'woman should support woman' nonsense. Fat chance Marge. Too bad, so sad, you lose.

[ShazzieB]

26. A woman should support other women?

You mean like you did, Marge, with that childish crack about Crockett's eyelashes? Or are the rules different for people with different amounts of melanin in their skin? Just checking.

[JustAnotherGen]

59. Definitely the melanin

I'm sick and tired of the white supremacist idea of fragile white women.

Done.

[whathehell]

68. Lol..Marjorie Taylor Greene

is hardly "fragile," and btw, fragility comes in melanin rich and melanin lite.

[magicarpet]

3. "Bleach blonde Bad-Built Butch Body,..

... With Three Toes on each Foot".

《That will really get under her skin.》

[ShazzieB]

32. The alliteration is what makes that 6 word phrase so spectacular.

Adding anything to it takes away from that. Besides, we all know how proud Marge is of her "buff" cross-trained bod.

Crockett's remark is perfect the way it is, imo.

[summer_in_TX]

60. Yes, and in "A Crockett Clapback Collection," Jasmine Crockett does it again!

[calimary]

35. I heard her "feet" were actually cloven hooves.

51. Margarine TrailerTrash Greenjeans is a MAGA piece of garbage.

Rather Maga

[hatrack]

54. "And then, when you can't borrow another buck from the bank, or buy another case of booze . . .

. . . you bust the joint out."

It's all about the alliteration!!!

[efhmc]

74. I see that reference to three toes about MTG a lot but no idea where it came from. Help, please.

Thank you.

[dpibel]

81. Here ya go

https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/marjorie-taylor-greene-3-toes/

In late February 2023, one of the burning questions on the internet was "How many toes does U.S. Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene have?" The reason for all the curiosity focused on Greene's feet was social media posts like this:

marjorie taylor greene three toes

In the photograph above (magnified below), Greene can be seen wearing open-toed shoes and appears to have only three toes on each foot.

(Just a quick cut/paste without trying to bring over the image. You'll see at the link.)

[Codifer]

85. I had wondered this also,

and figured finally that "three toed" must refer to some sloth-like traits.

[appmanga]

83. In fairness...

...she really has five toes on each foot. That doesn't mean those feet aren't scary as hell. She has toes like a veteran NFL offensive lineman.

Her feet are NSFW.

[AdamGG]

98. and the bleach

seeped through her skull

[no_hypocrisy]

4. I want one!

[dweller]

5. Heads up kids !

✌🏻

[MontanaMama]

46. It rolls off the tongue.

How she pulled that out of her pocket so quickly…so impressive!

[Traurigkeit]

6. AWESOME !!!!

I hope we gather more Democratic Representatives and Senators at local, state and federal levels as intelligent and street worthy as Representative Jasmine Crockett

[bluescribbler]

7. Empty Green made a big mistake.

She showed up unarmed in a battle of wits.

[BComplex]

21. Empty Green....that's a keeper!

9. I need that!

My hair is white. Will that pass for bleached blonde?

[HandmaidsTaleUntold]

10. Trolls Get Trolled

By someone who does it much better and smarter.

[CousinIT]

11. Gangreene doesn't get to personally insult her fellow congresspersons...

...without consequence.

And that shit she attacked Crockett with, SHOULD HAVE BEEN STRICKEN from the congressional record. Congress is still a men's club, though, and they view this as a petty "catfight" and don't want to be bothered. However, these are congress members, and that kind of crap on the floor is against the rules. That should have been pointed out and that shit stricken from the record.

Crockett has a right to defend herself from Gangreene's mouth. She is not mounting an attack on Gangreene. This is a counterattack and a justified one at that.

[Traurigkeit]

33. Comer is too stupid to even have read The House of Representatives regulations and invest in the history of the chamber.

[littlemissmartypants]

58. It was pointed out. Comer broke the rule. I watched the entire video exchange.

It's 20 or 30 minutes long in its entirety and very revealing. It gives unique insight into how manufactured maga pandemonium perverts our government institutions.

The procedural rules were clearly broken by Chairman Comer. He bent over backwards for MG. He even went so far as to blame his hearing aids for his incompetence.

You should check it out if you have time. Here's part of it...

[TheRickles]

12. Did Crockett really make up that phrase on the spot? If so, she's a genius.

I've seen the video of it being used as song lyrics, but that's apparently a fake that only appeared online after the hearing. So does anyone know where it really comes from?

[SunSeeker]

13. Yes, it really does appear to be a spur of the moment thing by Crockett.

I've been watching her at hearings and she is very quick, and takes no prisoners.

I don't think she realized it would go viral, and when it did, she capitalized on it and put in for this trademark. It's the American way!

[getagrip_already]

14. Not necessarily, its a gospel like song going back several years

It's been posted here.

Don't know if or where she heard it, but it's been around.

[SunSeeker]

18. The melody is old, but the Crockett lyrics were added after her statement went viral.

At least that was the case with the video of the guy singing that circulated here.

[getagrip_already]

22. This is like the one i was referring to...

https://www.tiktok.com/@kingwillonius/video/7370072965968366878

An older soul song. This is a new mix, but the song itself is older..

[brush]

56. Pls give credit where credit is due. Nothing on that Tik Tok thread has anything to do with...

Rep. Crockett's on the spot creativity.

[Ms. Toad]

73. Did you listen to the lyrics which were identical to the phrase she used? n/t

[brush]

78. I listened to a few of them. Nothing.

Whatever. For Rep. Crockett to come up with that to put down that racist big mouth, she deserves all the credit that's due her.

[Ms. Toad]

79. Very close to the beginning of the linked video is the exact same 6-word phrase Crockett used.

That's hardly nothing.

[brush]

80. None the less, it was an epic and extremely effective putdown of a racist big mouth. It went viral for God's sake.

Why not just admit? She did a good thing.

[Ms. Toad]

86. I was solely responding to your insistence that the song in the TikTok video had nothing to do with the phrase she used

(with the implication that she made it up) when the exact phrase she used comes very early in the song.

[brush]

87. Which song. The song for cell phone voice mail?

[Ms. Toad]

90. The one at this link -

https://www.democraticunderground.com/10143243862#post22

The one you responded to " Pls give credit where credit is due. Nothing on that Tik Tok thread has anything to do with Rep. Crockett's on the spot creativity."

Crockett didn't create the phrase. It comes from an old song. If you don't want to listen to the entre thing, follow the link and start at 39 seconds.

[RandiFan1290]

95. You were fooled by AI

Don't worry, it won't be the first time.

[BlueState]

93. This is AI generated comedy.

It was created by a comedian King Willonius based on what Rep. Crockett said. This is what he does he uses AI to generate songs that sound like old R&B.

[Diraven]

67. This one is my favorite

[prodigitalson]

104. The lyrics are an old Irish hymm my grandmother sang to me in college

[SunSeeker]

106. LOL

[TheRickles]

20. I'd like to see a clip from something done several years ago. The only ones I'm seeing are very recent knock-offs.

[getagrip_already]

25. There was one posted, but i cant find it...

Search engine here always frustrates me.

[vanlassie]

29. I think that is part of the fun. That post looked like

the cover of an old album with a picture of a black woman on it? Fake!

[getagrip_already]

43. Could be....

Could very well be.

[dpibel]

82. For the sake of historical accuracy

Greene did her eyelash thing. Ocasio-Cortez called for her words to be taken down. There was a lot of back and forth and withdrawing of comments and such before Rep. Crockett fired off the Six Bs.

She had some time to think about it whilst other people were arguing, and she's trial lawyer, so used to thinking under pressure.

It was a great line, but she didn't fire it back at Empty G on the spot.

[SunSeeker]

15. Fighting fire with fire! nt

[getagrip_already]

16. The 6B, new nickname....

Or maybe just 6B.

[oasis]

64. Single bees have one fading stinger.

6bs deliver one historic zinger.

[2naSalit]

17. Good for her!

[PSPS]

19. News dispatches from the House now read like a grade-school student's playground gossip sheet

[ananda]

23. Way to go! Dems gotta fight!

And it does work.

[Novara]

24. That's really tacky.

I don't care that Three-toes "started it." To continue this is just plain juvenile and shitty.

[JustAnotherGen]

27. If it raises

Campaign funds - go for it!

[spooky3]

28. If the chair refuses to shut down the initiating insults

What option do Dems have, other than being doormats?

[malaise]

97. + 1,000

Rec

[Irish_Dem]

30. It is a good psychological strategy. MAGAs are at war with us.

We have to fight back.

Given MTG's psych profile, humiliating her is an effective tactic.
She is very thin skinned and sensitive about certain remarks made about her.

Yes it may have a somewhat sleazy feel to it.

But we either fight back hard or we live under a fascist regime.

It is our choice.

[Traurigkeit]

34. You kick a Bully. Toss a trashcan at a Bully. Keep hitting it till it gives.

Doesn't matter how bloody you come out of it, the Bully got into it with the wrong target.

Unless you want to be a doormat to a coward.

39. AGREE

A bully will not understand you turning the other cheek. You have to retaliate quickly and hard. This way will not teach them anything, they are incapable of learning anything; but being cowards; they will leave you alone and bother someone else.

I wish the world was not this way, but it is.

[Irish_Dem]

48. Yes. Many bullies are cowards. They go to the weak link.

Don't be a weak link.

[electric_blue68]

92. With Respect to the Fabulous Former First Lady Michelle; Occasionally you Have To Fight Back!

[Irish_Dem]

96. Yes sometimes going high is the right choice.

But with the MAGAs often a different approach is needed.

[BeyondGeography]

50. Normally I'd agree

But before Crockett lowered the boom on MTG’s appearance, Greene said, “Why don’t you debate me? You don’t have the intelligence.”

Now that was ugly. If anything, Rep. Crockett was measured in her response which, judging by Greene’s reaction, was well and properly aimed.

[spooky3]

77. She also insulted AOC, who had tried to stand up for Crockett. Comer

Refused to enforce House rules prohibiting conduct like MTG’s.

[Skittles]

63. I agree

most of us would be fired if we behaved like this at work.

[spooky3]

76. The first Dem response was to ask Comer to strike MTG's remarks

And he refused.

The parallel to most work situations would be that if someone harassed you in the presence of the boss and they did nothing, you have a toxic work environment. You’d escalate it to the next level or to HR, and hope that it would be resolved there. In Congress there is no such option.

[appmanga]

84. When you have someone...

...who attacked a physical attribute of another person and did it with the smug self-satisfaction of the 11-year old she was channeling, she deserves to be smacked down in a way that gives her a very strong taste of her own sick medicine. There's a time to play by the rules, be decorous and the adults in the room, and there's a time to fight a match with a blow touch.

Ridicule is a very powerful weapon and a certain bloviating fat orange megalomaniac has used it to great effect. Democrats don't always have to bring flowers to a knife fight.

[IzzaNuDay]

94. Hood proverb

“don’t start some, there won’t be none”
But MTG had to start- FAFO.

I bet MTG wouldn’t go into nearby Anacostia DC and say what she said to Rep Crockett to another female POC. She would have her @$& handed to her!

[Novara]

100. Who cares who "started it"?

Ordinarily, I'm all for fighting back. For far too long we Dems have "taken the high road" which means we get stomped by bullies.

But continuing to engage in a middle-school mean-girl name-calling insult-o-rama is just plain juvenile.

Fight better battles. The other side sure gives enough opportunities.

[IzzaNuDay]

107. Well, what do you suggest how Rep. Jasmine responded?

What could have Rep. Jasmine said differently?

Personally, I think MTG got a taste of her own medicine. She deserved it!

[Novara]

108. Sigh.

I am not saying Ms. Crockett shouldn't have responded. But she probably should have responded with more tact and allowed Three-toes to look like the idiot that she is. There is supposed to be decorum, and she could have insisted on that rather than stooping to her juvenile level.

However, trademarking what she said and selling junk with the saying is tacky and it continues the middle-school mean-girl fight, which is what I object to.

I don't object to responding to bullies. I object the continuation of a juvenile name-calling mean-girl fight.

[Irish_Dem]

31. With any luck Marge will think twice about making personal remarks

against others.

[calimary]

36. That assumes she can think.

I’m not completely convinced about that.

If all you’ve got is fighting, then that means you’re pretty one-dimensional.

[Irish_Dem]

49. She is thin skinned and hates to be humiliated.

Even her primitive brain can process that.

37. Democratic star Congresswoman Jasmine Crockett rubs salt in the wound

This makes me smile

Link to tweet

BREAKING: Democratic star Congresswoman Jasmine Crockett rubs salt in the wound after her insult of Marjorie Taylor Greene's "bleach blonde bad built butch body" goes mega viral — by formally filing a trademark application for the phrase.

This is just too good...

Crockett's campaign filed with the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office over the weekend. The application indicates that they'll use the phrase on clothing including hats, hoodies, socks, and shirts.

The new campaign merchandise will be part of the "Crockett Clapback Collection."

This entire saga was set off when Greene insulted Crockett's "fake eyelashes" during a committee hearing. Crockett hit back with the now-famous phrase by addressing Republican Chair James Comer.

"I’m just curious, just to better understand your ruling..." said Crockett. "If someone on this committee then starts talking about somebody’s bleach blonde bad built butch body, that would not be engaging in personalities, correct?"

Greene was so deeply upset by the barbed comments that she posted a video on social media of herself exercising with the caption: "Yes my body is built and strong NOT with nips, tucks, plastic, or silicone, but through a healthy lifestyle."

Clearly, Crockett hit her mark.

61. Ol' Sporkfoot proving the southern adage yet again

The hit dog yelps

[iluvtennis]

40. Love it. 😍. n/t

[Prairie Gates]

41. MTG shot a lil pea shooter over at Crockett and Crockett hit her with the NUKE!

She gonna learn!

[Traurigkeit]

42. If we HAD a free (of the GOP) press, they would have Field Day with this.

Asking questions to the Representative:

PlainDealer: ButchBody ...

LATimes: So which product do you use to bleach?

MAD Magazine: So what color is your actual hair, if you have any?

[Hekate]

45. Should be sure to include the Q&A short form on the merch, because it is hilarious...

Jasmine C: So is this a personal comment that’s okay? BBBBB
Chair: Wait, whut?

ETA: I really want that on some merch. Hint: I usually get coffee mugs.

[Lunabell]

47. We're mad as hell and we're not going to take it anymore!!

In your face, GQP. Say goodbye to tge house because there's going to be a blue tsunami in 2024!!

[TlalocW]

52. Hopefully, she'll get the idea to do something like

Bernie Sanders did with donating all funds raised from the sale of sweatshirts with the image of him being cold in a winter coat and mittens, but send all proceeds to pro-choice groups or some other group MTG hates.

[oasis]

53. Play the dozens with a Texas

Sister and you will get your hat brought to you. Every time.

[BumRushDaShow]

55. Yup.

First thing I thought when I heard her retort. MTG just got handed her ass by someone who can play the dosens!

[niyad]

57. Ohhh, pooooor widdle traitor greene. Can dish it out, but cannot take it.

[riversedge]

62. ha ha.

[azureblue]

65. just cal MTG

B6... or maybe B7, if that is allowed...

[republianmushroom]

66. I like it.

[Demobrat]

69. B6 says what?

I think no matter what shape, size or how we look, we need to be ourselves, not telling women the only way to be attractive or accepted is to have fake boobs, fake hair, fake lashes, and injected faces,” she told the outlet.


This comment might work a wee bit better coming from someone without a bad bathroom bleach job on her head.

[Ladythatvotesblue]

70. Wow

that was funny. the truth hurts MTG
Jasmine

[PatrickforB]

71. What kills me is the right wing has this 'she's dumb' drumbeat about Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez. But

you know what? If you listen to her, she has a good mastery of issues. She gets it. We need more like her.

And Jasmine Crockett is quite intelligent as well. Just like Porter, Warren and others. The Democrats have great bench strength. They do.

MTG is dumb as a stick. So is Boebert. I'd a hundred times rather have Ocasio-Cortez as my Rep, because I'd actually feel represented. Seriously. I had Ken Buck before, and I might end up with Boebert.

Sigh...

[Aussie105]

72. There are worse things you could insult TMG with,

but I won't mention any of the ones I'm thinking.

[DoBW]

75. a whut now?

Huh? whut's going on?

[Aussie105]

88. Very silly of MTG to serve a small put-down comment like that

and not expect a major smackdown.

Typical bully attitude though, not expecting the victim to get back up and dole out something bigger in response.

[GenThePerservering]

89. Now Marge is ugly crying. ::sniff:: NT

[marble falls]

91. Note to self ...

... Do not get on the wrong side of Rep Crockett.

[HardLineDem]

99. Tho' Rep Crockett's bit of poetry is accurate...

This old man takes exception on behalf of certain dear and respected butch friends. Nor can we do much about how we are built. Or maybe, in MTG's case, we've tried.

And anyway, who would wear gear with such a slogan?

[BumRushDaShow]

102. "And anyway, who would wear gear with such a slogan? "

[Chakaconcarne]

105. Yeah, that's what bugs me about moving this spat beyond the house floor exchange..

Comparing "butch" to MTG is pretty denigrating to that group. There are a plethora of insults that could have substituted there.

It's also super petty and will accomplish little but bringing Crockett further down to MTG's level.

[Torchlight]

101. Ms. greene will cower behind self-righteousness

and pretend to be offended by being presented with the very thing she herself practices daily.

Sure, it's tiring to be a sanctimonious hypocrite every day, but I'm fully confident she's got the staying power, as well as the willful ignorance to keep up her silly charade of "my designer ethics are better and more expensive than yours."

[BumRushDaShow]

103. The fact that this smackdown put her on the defensive for the first time while in Congress

is notable enough. And the echo from that smack continues to reverberate today, a week later, throughout the far reaches of the internet.

She can go join her former BFF Bobo, who got her own Beatlejuice ridiculing last year, and go slink off into a corner somewhere.
