The most embarrassing Republican press briefing since the last one.

Hunter Biden refused to appear before a closed-door hearing, calling out Republicans on their BS.

And the Republican press briefing that followed showed a desperate Jim Comer surrounded by camera hogs Greene, Nancy Mace, Jim Jordan, and Virginia Foxx.

While Chairman Jordan and Comer were holding court, Marge stood behind them just itching to be heard and get in front of the cameras.

When there was a brief pause as reporters peppered the Republican leaders for having no evidence of wrongdoing by President Biden, Marge jumped in.

"I would've liked to ask Hunter Biden about the MANN act violations! Sex trafficking women across state lines! That would have been a good question! You don't seem to care about that!" Rep. Greene shouted.

Hey Marge. The Mann Act these days is about trafficking UNDERAGE people. No one has charged Hunter Biden with that. You're thinking of your buddy Matt Gaetz. And this party's so-called president and leading candidate for 2024 has been deemed a rapist in a court of law. So they've got THAT going for them.

Jordan jumped right in, "Thank you very much," and ended the presser.

Comer turned around and said a few words to the Georgia QAnon debutante, and Republicans walked away.

Putting the bow on top of these ridiculous proceedings, the CNN host then repeated Jim Jordan's words, 'When Congress asks you to, you're supposed to come testify.' That from the Chairman of the House Judiciary Committee Jim Jordan," she said. "Jim Jordan also defied a subpoena himself coming from the January 6 Congressional Committee."

It's not a good day for Republicans when Marjorie Taylor Greene bellowing about non-existent sex trafficking is NOT the worst thing to happen all day.
