Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) said half of the things President Joe Biden said during the State of the Union were unintelligible and the other half “didn’t make any sense.”
Greene was one of a handful of Republicans who consistently jeered at Biden during the address on Tuesday night, after Biden made comments contradicting what GOP members believe is the current reality in the United States.
INSIDE JOE BIDEN’S WILD STATE OF THE UNION ADDRESS
“Joe Biden claimed to care about the border and talked about fentanyl deaths, which is the No. 1 cause of young people ages 18 to 45, but yet has no plan to secure the border,” Greene said in a video message on Twitter. “Frankly, we all know he doesn’t care about the border, because Joe wants the border wide open.”
Greene brushed off concerns Biden raised about companies competing for workers and “junk fees” during his segment on the economy, stating that she doesn’t “hear anybody at home worrying about these terrible fights between fast food companies.”

The Georgia representative accused the president of talking about Communism, which was not mentioned explicitly in his speech. Rather, he discussed limiting Big Tech and pharmaceutical companies’ control over consumers.
In her message, Greene took aim at Biden for comments he made when he mentioned the debt ceiling and called on Congress to raise the debt limit in his address. Biden and McCarthy held a meeting last week, in which McCarthy said he confirmed that cutting Medicare and Social Security as part of negotiations is “off the table.”
However, Biden said “some, not all” Republicans want to cut Medicare and Social Security, causing a large amount of booing and jeering from Republicans.
Greene shouted that Biden was a “liar” in response to his accusation. Following the speech, Greene addressed her outburst and repeated her attack.
“We have not talked about cutting Social Security and Medicare — Joe Biden has been claiming that we are going to cut Social Security and Medicare. But we’re not.” Greene said. “So we called him out on the House floor. I called him a ‘liar.’ Because that’s what he is.”

Greene said Biden should have apologized for his administration’s response to the Chinese spy balloon, which was shot down after it hovered over the United States for several days. Greene pulled out a white balloon for emphasis.
“Joe Biden is weak,” Greene said. “Joe Biden doesn’t know anything he’s talking about. That’s the state of our union.”
