Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) appears to be having a bit of a change of heart lately, criticizing her own party for closing down the House of Representatives, calling them out for having no plan to improve health care access, and even criticizing House Speaker Mike Johnson for not swearing in Represetnative-elect Adelita Grijalva (D-AZ), who was elected over a month ago.But her Democratic colleague, Rep. Jasmine Crockett (D-TX), isnt going to accept Greenes new rhetoric without pointing out that Greene has been responsible for many of the problems she is criticizing now. Related Jasmine Crockett mocks Marjorie Taylor Greene with epic Trump or Trans game during hearing I dont understand why she didnt do the right thing when she had the chance, Crockett said on CNNs Laura Coates Live yesterday.Host Laura Coates played a clip from a CNN interview with Greene. During that interview, the Georgia congresswoman lambasted her fellow Republicans for not having a good solution for health insurance affordability and for closing the House of Representatives during the shutdown, something that isnt required.

And if one more Republican would have defected which we had maybe two Republicans that defected if we would have just had one more, then we would not be talking about higher insurance premiums [now]. Marjorie Taylor Greene voted for this, point-blank period, Crockett continued. Her constituents were the ones that were on the receiving end of this. In fact, Im sure that we can find tape in committee of me going down and talking about how many people in their Republican districts how many children were going to lose health care because of that bill.Now maybe she didnt care about those on Medicaid and Medicare, and Democrats spent a lot of time talking about the fact that these 15 to 17 million were going to lose their health care, but they didnt fully understand that when you remove $1 trillion from the health care ecosystem, everybody else has to pay in, Crockett added.Crockett: Marjorie Taylor Greene voted for this point blank period.
