House Hearing Spirals into Chaos After Marjorie Taylor Greene Insults Democrat’s ‘Fake Eyelashes’: ‘How Dare You?’
That is absolutely unacceptable,” Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez told Greene in defense of her colleague. “How dare you attack the physical appearance of another person?”
Georgia Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene sparked a chaotic back-and-forth after mocking a colleague’s physical appearance during a House Oversight Committee meeting this week, in what New York Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez called “absolutely unacceptable.”
Chaos erupted during the Thursday, May 16, meeting — intended to revolve around a resolution over Attorney General Merrick Garland — when a disagreement prompted Greene to comment on Texas Rep. Jasmine Crockett’s appearance over what she presumed to be “fake eyelashes,” per footage shared by NBC News.
After Greene asked if Democrats on the committee had been “employing Judge Merchan’s daughter” — referring to New York Judge Juan Merchan in Donald Trump’s criminal trial — Crockett asked what Greene’s comment had to do with Garland.
