Political Quotes

“The hypocrisy here is an outrage. My fellow Georgian, Congresswoman Greene, stood right here in this House and took full responsibility for her statements. That is more than we can say for any of the many in this Chamber who have made outrageous, hate-filled, and vile statements and comments over the past years--and recent months, in particular. For example, a Democrat member of the House Foreign Affairs Committee has repeatedly made blatant anti-Semitic statements. She still holds her position. The Democratic chairwoman of the House Financial Services Committee encouraged supporters to aggressively assault anyone who supported President Trump. She still holds her position. The Speaker of the House has called Republicans enemies of the state. She still has her position. While we watch cities in flames, businesses being destroyed, officers killed, and civilians attacked, a member of the majority party called for further unrest in the streets. She still has her position. I have got four pages of similar comments, and this is by no means exhaustive. Inflammatory rhetoric around here has become commonplace, unfortunately, and Members of this House have absolutely crossed the line by calling for violence and making other similar remarks. The majority refuses to hold its own members accountable. This is the zenith of hypocrisy and injustice. Mr. Speaker, I call on and urge our Members to oppose this resolution.”
