Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) turned the tables on Democrats in her one minute floor speech Wednesday opposing the article of impeachment against President Trump that accuses him of inciting the storming of the Capitol last Wednesday. Greene called out the Democrats for supporting the rioters who torched and looted U.S. cities last year in the George Floyd riots. But it wasn’t the substance of her remarks the media reported. She triggered the media by calling out the mass censorship by Big Tech by wearing a COVID mask emblazoned with the word “CENSORED.”
“With their continued endorsement and incitement of BLM/Antifa violence, the Democrat impeachment of President Trump sets a precedent that members of their party should be removed from office. This impeachment is based on a lie. AGAIN!”
The Trump War Room tweeted Greene’s speech noting this passage, “President Trump has held over 600 rallies in the last 4 years & none of them included assaulting police, destroying businesses or burning down cities. Democrats have spent all this time endorsing & enabling violent riots that left billions in property damage & 47 dead.”
“Thank you. Madam Speaker I am against the impeachment effort by the Democrats. President Trump has held over six hundred rallies in the last four years. None of them included assaulting police, destroying businesses or burning down cities. Democrats have spent all this time endorsing and enabling violent riots that left billions in property damage and forty-seven dead across the United States. Democrats are on record supporting violence when it serves their cause–in their own words, on social media, on interviews and on fundraising platform ActBlue. Democrats support defunding the police when it’s someone else’s city, someone else’s home and someone else’s business. Democrats will take away everyone’s guns just as long as they have guards with guns. Democrats’ impeachment of President Trump today has now set the standard that they should be removed for their support of violence against the American people. I yield back. Thank you.”
A media meltdown ensued.

The censorship is real. But notice the media went after her for her mask and not what she said. They didn’t want to talk about that.
BTW, the Congresswoman has the best masks in Congress.
