Marjorie Taylor Greene Says Green New Deal Helps China but Shows Symbol of Soviet Union
Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene used the prominent symbol of the Soviet Union during a meme-filled speech in which she said the Green New Deal would favor China.
The Georgia congresswoman referred to the Hanna-Barbera cartoon Scooby Doo as she condemned the environmental policy championed by progressives, whose demands include net-zero gas emissions and clean energy sources meeting 100 percent of power demand by 2030.
"This is a simple meme that you would find on the internet," Greene said in the House on Wednesday, pointing to a poster lifted up by her aide which featured a split image of Fred Jones from the Scooby Doo gang.
