Marjorie Taylor Greene Not Impressed By Cori Bush’s ‘Camping Trip’ on the Capitol Steps, Offers Advice

Earlier, we reported that U.S. House Rep Cori Bush (D-MO) claimed she slept on the Capitol steps to protest the ending of the eviction moratorium.

Bush tweeted out this morning a picture of herself with activists on the Capitol steps and said, “Good morning. The eviction moratorium expires tonight at midnight.”

“We could have extended it yesterday, but some Democrats went on vacation instead. We slept at the Capitol last night to ask them to come back and do their jobs. Today’s their last chance. We’re still here,” Bush explained.

U.S. House Rep Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) was not impressed by the protest, quote tweeted Bush, and offered her advice.

Greene asked, “How was your camping trip?”

“Good thing it didn’t rain,” Greene suggested.

Greene offered, “Stop paying people to not work and skip rent, and it will all work out well for everyone.”

Recently, we also reported that Greene attempted to see those that are still incarcerated from Jan. 6, but was denied entry.

Greene mentioned that as well and told Bush, “Go over to the DC jail. It’s on lockdown. Detainees can’t see their lawyers or talk to anyone. Not a good situation for all inmates.”

Earlier, we reported:

She says that she’s doing what she is doing to help anyone who is facing eviction be able to stay in their home without paying rent. She didn’t address how the middle-class landlord will put food on his or her’s children’s table if they don’t receive rent payments on property they lease out though.

It’s always assumed I think, that landlords are rich and greedy, and there aren’t two sides to this story, but many know better. In the video below, the MSNBC host appears to do Bush’s job for her, claiming that she’s not putting on a stunt. She agrees, although she claims she would know how to do a stunt if she did want to do one, but that that’s not what is happening here.

“When we signed up for this job, we signed up to represent every single person in our district, regardless of if you have four walls or not, if you have a business or not, if you have money or not, if you’re Black, White, or whatever, if you voted for us or not we signed up to represent you and that’s what we should be doing”.

“For you, this is not a stunt, you’ve been homeless,” says the host. “It’s not performative in any way, I know how to do performative things, and this is not it, and you know I don’t do performative things as a matter of fact because I don’t have to…” says Bush.

Bush has continued her protest today, which has even included a visit from U.S. Sen Elizabeth Warren (D-MA).
