Marjorie Taylor Greene Broke House Ethics Rules During Joe Biden's State of the Union Address
Controversial Georgia Republican Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene is getting slammed for breaking the rules of the House of Representatives during President Joe Biden's State of the Union Address.
The main reason for this is that she wore a MAGA hat that violated a rule that bans campaigning while in the House.
The rules of the House clearly stated, "Accordingly, as a general rule, they may not be used for the conduct of campaign or political activities."
According to Yahoo! News, Marjorie Taylor Greene wearing Donald Trump's signature "Make America Great Again" hat during the State of the Union Address could be construed as campaigning activities.
Greene has become infamous for her antics every time Joe Biden delivered the State of the Union Address, often raising eyebrows in the process. However, she may face repercussions for her latest stunt by bringing in Donald Trump's campaign material.
Rep. Jamie Raskin, a Maryland Democrat, blasted Greene soon after the State of the Union address, stating the Georgia congresswoman was "in direct violation of the rules of the House by wearing campaign insignia on the House floor." He added that she could likely face an ethics complaint, but it may not go anywhere as the House is controlled by Republicans, albeit with a razor-thin majority.
Marjorie Taylor Greene Being Laughed at After Viral Joe Biden Reaction to Her Wearing a MAGA Hat
As Joe Biden entered the house floor, he was greeted by Marjorie Taylor Greene, who was trying to make a scene once again while wearing that MAGA hat that could land her in trouble. He gave a look of fake shock and laughed at her before continuing to ignore her. That reaction went viral soon after.
This led to Greene getting ribbed on social media, with one user on X tweeting, "Imagine getting cooked like this by the President of the United States, brutal."

Joe Biden Shocks Republicans by Saying Laken Riley's Name
Marjorie Taylor Greene was trying to get Joe Biden to say the name of Laken Riley, the nursing student killed by an illegal immigrant. However, Biden flipped the script on her by indeed saying her name and admitting that she was killed by an "illegal."
Midway through Joe Biden's State of the Union address, Greene interjected, "Say her name!" However, the president did something the Republicans or even some of his allies expected, and what was holding up a white button, saying, "Laken Riley."
After that, he urged Congress to work together to pass a border security compromise, saying, "Get this bill done!" before calling on Donald Trump to stop fighting against any border deal. This came after Trump infamously pressured Republicans to reject a border deal because it would make Biden look good and go against what they have been painting Biden as, which is doing nothing on the border.
