Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) slammed President Joe Biden and his administration in a lengthy rant on social media Saturday, claiming the White House was filled with "pathetic blind fools" led by a corrupt president.
Greene, who commented that Biden has been in Washington politics longer than she has been alive, said the White House has been attacking her for seeking an impeachment inquiry into the president. The inquiry is related to the Biden family’s foreign business dealings.
"We have the evidence they have desperately been trying to hide to just ask the question. Should we inquire? Should we just take a look? Dare we investigate further? The answer is YES but the White House is outraged at my audacity to demand it," Greene posted to the social media platform X, formerly known as Twitter. "The White House is filled with pathetic blind fools led by one corrupt criminal mentally incompetent old man who has been in Washington seats of power longer than I’ve been alive. Over 50 years."

For the White House and administration,
The Georgia congresswoman then turned her attacks to the White House directly, claiming the president's legacy consists of "child sex trafficking and Chinese fentanyl" due to policies that directly tie the United States to Mexican cartels. She also slammed the administration over high inflation and funding foreign wars such as Russia's war with Ukraine.
"Instead of sending military force against the cartels, you beat your chest and spew tough talk while funding and fueling a war defending another corrupt country’s border while being too damn weak and pathetic to defend our own border" Greene said. "You lie everyday to Americans about Ukraine, refusing to admit that Ukraine is losing the war. Real men and real leaders defend their own country, their own homes, their own people, and their own children."
Greene continued: "You would rather send our sons and daughters to be blown to shreds in another foreign war and sent home in flag draped coffins than actually do your constitutional duty of defending our own states."
Republicans have long slammed the administration for its failure to secure the southern border. Illegal border crossings by immigrants have seen a large rise during the Biden administration, with more than 100,000 migrants having flooded New York City since the Spring of 2022. Daily border crossings equate to approximately 5,000 people currently, but they peaked at 10,000 crossings a day before the expiration of Title 42.

The rant comes after the White House pushed back on Greene's comment that she would not support budget measures if the House did not “defund Biden’s weaponization of government” and stop funding to Ukraine.
“One of the House’s most powerful members, Marjorie Taylor Greene, just admitted that the House Republican impeachment is only a partisan stunt driven by the most extreme, far-right members,” White House spokesperson Ian Sams told CNBC on Friday.
