Greene silencing leads to new pledges of civility

April 24, 2023

After Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene Greene on Wednesday explicitly labeled Mayorkas a liar, Representative Glenn Ivey (D-Md.) said he appreciated the efforts at the end of the hearing to "rein it back in," but said whether Green can ultimately do so remains to be seen. "It varies from different Republican members. I think for some of them, this is the raison d’etre. They’re going for more quotes, more tweets, more sales, more dollars raised on the internet. They’re not going to change," he said, "The chairman and some of the other members, I hope that they will step back from that precipice and we can actually get back to doing some reasonable work."
