Marjorie Taylor Greene's Call for Decorum Met with Laughter in House

House Democrats burst into laughter when Marjorie Taylor Greene, a far-right Republican, called for "decorum" while presiding over the House. Greene has courted controversy and confrontation, including voicing antisemitic conspiracy theories and harassing political opponents. Democrats stripped Greene of committee assignments in 2021 but they were restored after Republicans took the House. Greene has made headlines by standing to catcall, jeer and boo during Joe Biden's last two appearances in the House chamber. Many Democrats mocked Greene's call for decorum, with one saying "Irony died today on the House Floor, but comedy triumphed as the GOP chose MTG as their keeper of 'decorum'."
