This hearing is stupid. Counsel hands her a document asks if she is familiar with it, she says she is not but then he proceeds to ask her questions about it anyway. Judge just facepalms..

Now using the term "1776" is calling for overthrow of the government?
Petitioner tries to get MTG to accept that any reference to 1776 is a call to violence.

She points out that 1776 is on the state seal hanging in the courtroom.
Judge laughs.

I agree with you. BTW: Is she your rep?GeorgiAg said:
I don't think anyone in their right mind could say she had "engaged in insurrection."
And she didn't "give aid or encouragement to our enemies." They were American protesters. It's idiotic on its face.
Because she said similar to a line in a movie about using force to stop an invasion by aliens. He literally asked her about that. Plays the clip, she says, "Good speech" and then he asked her, "Well you know that was a call to arms to use violence, right? Isn't that what you meant too?"GeorgiAg said:

No, I'm in a district gerrymandered to be Dem. It's south and west Atlanta and my county is skewing even more African-American. David Scott (D) is my rep.e=mc2 said:I agree with you. BTW: Is she your rep?GeorgiAg said:

Just nucking futs.
It’s really hard to believe that this lawyer questioning MTG is the best the left could do.

Haven't caught his name yet but he's really dumb. Has an active imagination in bringing such disparate events, quotes, time lines to show "evidence" of her fomenting insurrection. But otherwise, insanely dumb.justcallmeharry said:It’s really hard to believe that this lawyer questioning MTG is the best the left could do.

When the petitioner tries to get MTG to say that her use of "1776" was a call for violence, she points out that 1776 is on the Georgia state seal:

7 House Democrats objected to Donald Trump's election certification in 2016.
Now, they're trying to kick MTG off the ballot in her district for doing exactly what they did.
Is the Judge going to render a decision today?aggiehawg said:
Is this guy really arguing that when people take oath of office as a US Representative they lose their First Amendment rights?
Yep, that's what he is saying.
Don't think so. There are still some briefs to be filed from I've heard today.justcallmeharry said:Is the Judge going to render a decision today?aggiehawg said:

Who hasn't banged their personal trainer?Tom Kazansky 2012 said:
For the record MTG may not be the most politically savvy, and maybe she did bang her personal trainer and of course has baggage...
But I'll take her over 90% of washington as she is consistently on the side of representing her constituents, the middle class, and doesnt appear to be bought and paid for by special interests.
For this voter challenge that was made to the Sec of State Raffensperger it goes to the admin law judge and then back to Raffensperger after judge makes his findings.AggieUSMC said:
Show trial.
Apparently the Secretary of the State of Georgia (a Republican) has the final say on this. And there is no way he'll disqualify her regardless whether or not the judge recommends disqualification. And it doesn't even look like that's gonna happen.
They are literally quoting Independence Day to MTG at this point

A judge in Georgia on Friday found that Rep. Marjorie Taylor Green (R-Ga.) can run for reelection, rejecting arguments from a group of voters who had challenged her eligibility over allegations that she engaged in insurrection. But the decision will ultimately be up to Republican Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger.
State Administrative Law Judge Charles Beaudrot announced his decision after a daylong hearing in April that included arguments from lawyers for the voters and for Greene, as well as extensive questioning of Greene herself.
State law says Beaudrot must submit his findings to Raffensperger, who has to decide whether Greene should be removed from the ballot.

From what I understand these Libs/Dems are contending that anyone that questioned the 2020 Election were trying to over throw the Govt and should be barred from serving in any elected office ever again. So questioning the Govt or what has happened is enough to get you barred from running for office or participating in this countries govt for the rest of your life.
Disgusting. Libs/Dems are absolutely disgusting and a danger to the Republic.
