Marjorie Taylor Greene, a staunch ally of Donald Trump, has sparked outrage after an explosive exchange with Sky News reporter Martha Kelner. The incident unfolded when Kelner asked Greene about the recent Signal leak scandal, which saw US politicians allegedly sharing sensitive military plans on an encrypted chat.
“Go Back to Your Country”
As Kelner began asking her question, Greene interrupted, demanding to know where the reporter was from. When told it was the UK, Greene fired back: “OK, we don’t give a crap about your opinion and your reporting. Why don’t you go back to your country, where you have a major migrant problem? You should care about your own borders.”
🚨 Kelner Tries Again
Undeterred, Kelner tried once more to ask her question, but Greene was having none of it. She snapped, “Do you care about people from your country? What about all the women that are raped by migrants? Do you care? OK, you’re done.”
❌ “I Don’t Care About Your Fake News”
When Kelner pressed on, asking about the potential risks to US servicemen and women due to the Signal group chat, Greene dismissed the question as “fake news.”
Then, an American journalist stepped in, asking Greene, “I’d like to hear your answer to what she’s asking.” Greene, visibly annoyed, replied: “I’m not answering her question because I don’t care about her network. If you would like to ask, I can answer.”
💥 A Twist: Blaming the Biden Administration
The conversation took another bizarre turn when Greene went on to attack the Biden administration. This, despite the fact that Biden had left office months prior. It was a strange deflection, leaving many wondering what point Greene was really trying to make.
💬 Public Backlash
The heated exchange quickly went viral, with social media users expressing their shock at Greene’s remarks. Critics have accused her of evading difficult questions and attacking the messenger rather than addressing the issue at hand. Regardless, this incident certainly added to her controversial public persona.
