Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.) has learned why you should never come for a Black woman. On Monday, Greene posted her workout routine on X following a scathing insult from Rep. Jasmine Crockett (D-Texas), who simply returned the favor after Greene attacked her appearance in a House Oversight Committee hearing last week.
Greene’s video is a response to Thursday’s hearing where she told Crockett “I think your fake eyelashes are messing up what you’re reading.” Crockett later retorted with what she labeled a hypothetical question about what could violate congressional protocol.

“I’m just curious, just to better understand your ruling,” Crockett said, in reference to a decision made by Chair James Comer (R-Ky.). “If someone on this committee then starts talking about somebody’s bleach blonde bad built butch body, that would not be engaging in personalities, correct?”
The quip when viral all over social media, with Crockett launching a fundraiser with T-shirts bearing the message: “Bleach Blonde Bad Built Butch Body.” Clearly, those words struck a nerve as Greene defended her stature.
“Yes my body is built and strong NOT with nips, tucks, plastic, or silicone, but through a healthy lifestyle,” Greene wrote on X. “Soon turning 50 years old, God willing, I will continue to lift, run, swim, play sports, surf, ski, climb and LIVE this life to the fullest and enjoy every single moment!”
It’s an interesting — and obviously defensive — response considering all the ignorant, racist and hateful things Greene has said over the years. For example, she said being called a “white supremacist” is the equivalent of being called the N-word.
Greene also compared mask mandates at the U.S. Capitol to the Holocaust, stated the 2018 school shooting in Parkland, Florida was a hoax, called Kwanzaa a “fake religion created by a psychopath.”
Crockett didn’t say anything nearly as horrible or dangerous, but beautifully put Greene in her place.
