Marjorie Taylor Greene Rages Against (Checks Notes) Fox News

She just broke the irony meter.

Controversial GOP Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene is now aiming at Fox News. It could be because a columnist for Fox News called her an "idiot" who should get over herself. She's quickly losing power with Republicans as she was met with boos after calling up a resolution to remove GOP Speaker Mike Johnson on the House floor.

Marge and criminally convicted Steve Bannon are big mad at Fox News. It was only a matter of time before they turned on the network.

"So you got to remember Fox News that literally fired Tucker Carlson, the number one cable TV news host in the nation," Greene said, according to Media Matters. "Tucker, who was basically the voice of everyone, that's the Fox News that refused to cover me calling the motion to vacate. The Five never switched gears; they never changed, never went to anything different."

"Fox News wants to control what Republican voters think, and the control and the information that they give you is the establishment Republican Party view, the Bush view, the Cheney view, the same view that led us into the Iraq War claiming that there was weapons of mass destruction," she continued. "They want to make viewers, their viewers think that we have to fight for Ukraine, that we have to stop Putin because he's gonna steamroll across Europe just like Hitler did even though there's no evidence of showing that."

"The same Fox News refuses to say, hey, let's call for peace," she said while practically giving Putin a blowie. "Peace for these people in Ukraine instead of wiping out an entire generation of Ukrainians. Think about that."

Note: Ukraine is not experiencing "peace" because Russians invaded their country, targeted schools and hospitals, and raped and murdered Ukrainian citizens. The war could end quickly if the Russian aggressors would get the fuck out of their country.

"This is the same Fox News that wants to infuriate you every single day while Republicans go down to the border, drag out the podium once again, point it, oh, look. Look. They're crossing the border," she said. "Oh, my goodness. Oh my. But, yeah, Republicans don't do a damn thing to actually stop it. Nothing."

Note: That's because her favorite President and her colleagues stopped the bipartisan border deal from passing.

"We could have stopped it in our appropriations. We could change all kinds of things. We have the speaker of the house, the most powerful position in the Republican Party, third in line to the President, third in line to the President," she continued. "The speaker can do anything he wants to do if he's willing to do it, but we have a speaker that's weak that a man — an 80-year-old man with dementia is able to fool him. This is where we are."

"And Fox News, Fox News wants to make sure, make sure that you guys don't have your own opinion, that you only have the opinion that Fox News tells you to have, and that's why Fox News attacks Steve Bannon," she said. "That's why Fox News attacks Charlie Kirk, and that's why Fox News would love to murder Tucker Carlson, and that's the reality."

"And that's why Fox News is losing viewers because I think you guys are smart," she added. "The American people are too smart, and you're tired of being fed outrage TV – outrage TV and watching and voting and donating to Republicans that don't do a damn thing about it. And I think that's where we're turning the corner, Steve, and I hope to God we continue turning that corner."

Holy cow, that woman talks a lot. She doesn't stop for a moment, even to breathe. Oh, wait. We might be onto something. Keep talking, Marge.
