, R-Ga., on Wednesday after she lobbed accusations at the homeland security secretary during his congressional testimony.
Democrats immediately moved to strike her words, arguing she had violated House rules about making attacks based on personality. Greene declined to withdraw her remarks. Rep. Dan Goldman, D-N.Y., then noted that Thompson’s motion was to “take down” Greene’s remarks, not “strike them” — taking them down would essentially end Greene’s ability to question Mayorkas further. The committee did just that., saying:"Republicans will never defeat the Democrats, we’ll never impeach Mayorkas, we’ll never impeach Biden, and we’ll never implement our conservative agenda if we can’t even call a liar a liar.
