Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene introduces articles of impeachment against BidenThese will be the first articles of impeachment filed against Biden since House Republicans took the majority in January. WASHINGTON — Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, R-Ga., on Thursday introduced articles of impeachment against President Joe Biden over his handling of migrant crossings along the U.S.-Mexico border. Greene accused Biden of abusing his power by "endangering the security of the United States and thwarting the will of Congress," according to the articles. "Joe Biden has deliberately compromised our national security by refusing to enforce immigration laws and secure our border, allowed approximately 6 million illegals from over 160 countries to invade our country, deprived border patrol of the necessary resources and policies sufficient to protect our country, and his administration has willfully refused to maintain operational control as required by law," Greene said in a statement. The first of the three articles of impeachment alleged that Biden's actions have led to an increase in "illegal aliens and illegal narcotics, including deadly fentanyl, entering the United States." It also claimed that his administration has "willfully violated" the law "by releasing illegal aliens into the interior of the United States." Rest of article here: Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene introduces articles of impeachment against Biden

Hey, at least she is actually doing work that can only be done by a member of the House, and not all the pointless crap she usually does

That's what they are supposed to do, work their constituents want. Unfortunately for us her constituents are batshit crazy. So we get this. But it is something that only a representative can do, so there is progress  |

I’d like to point out that she’s not from her district, she moved here just to be able to run in this far right backwater. Similar to Trump being a Democrat until he wanted to court the red neck hollar vote. |

question: is it thwarting the will of congress if congress has not ACTED on Immigration?
one might arguably assert that the will of congress IS what Biden has done.

Gerrymandering and the like has made too many districts non-competitive, and leads to nut jobs like this getting elected over and over because "I can't possibly vote for the other person". Just another reason why gerrymandering sucks |

it should be made illegal at the federal level, imo.
the fact that it is in any sense legal is a vestige of a time
when this country was run by white, landed, men.

yeah. this ruling and others like it have been upheld for over a century. what i am saying is that this is a reminant of an old structure in our union- a republican idea. part of me, having witnessed the danger of minority government in 2016, respects this idea. but another part of me recognizes the danger of it for everyone else. i absolutely have mixed feelings about it. but i like how it works BETTER when states where districts are drawn more fairly. "legal" is not necessarily "fair". |

Marge is back in the news again.
The cool kids in the Freedom Caucus just voted to not let her sit at their lunch table.
Might be due to Marge and Boebert getting into a screaming match on the House Floor last month.
Mean girl drama.

oh, that makes sense. but still, she could be using her time to help constituents with things they might reach out to their Rep to resolve. but I'm still not surprised. she's a waste of air.

 May she continue to spew nonsense for a long time Everything that I was taught when I was young about cutting divorcing women some slack is off the table with this one. She was nuts while married and has utterly lost it since being served. Even the crazies that she hangs with are no-go and cold-shouldering this mess.

I think Boebert was served with divorce papers also. What a surprise. |

McCarthy put MTG on some very important committees as a reward for helping him get the speakership. She's not fit for any of them. Total nut case without the knowledge to do any good.
