Tapper: MTG Motion Is ‘Kristi Noem Taking A Shotgun To Cricket’s Head’

Greene’s humiliation came just as Kristi Noem finally realized nobody admires her for killing her dog, Cricket, and slinked away. If only Marge would realize people are also sick of her obsessive need for attention and do the same.

From The New York Times report on Greene’s effort to oust Speaker Mike Johnson:

Lawmakers widely booed Ms. Greene as she called up the resolution and jeered several times as she read it aloud. As she recited the measure, a grievance-laden screed that lasted more than 10 minutes, Republicans lined up on the House floor to shake Mr. Johnson’s hand and pat him on the back.

Only 11 Republicans voted with Greene to move forward with a vote to oust Speaker Mike Johnson, The Times said. Sad!

On CNN, Jake Tapper made the obvious comparison: “That is the death of Marjorie Taylor Greene’s motion to vacate,” he said once it was officially dead. The motion is “essentially Kristi Noem taking a shotgun to Cricket’s head. It’s the death of that effort.”
