Marjorie Taylor Greene slams NYC as ‘repulsive’ and ‘smells bad’ in Fox News rant

Fresh off an uneventful visit to New York to protest former President Donald Trump’s arraignment, Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene laced into Mayor Adams and condemned the city as “repulsive” and crime-ridden.

Greene, a far-right Georgia Republican and purveyor of wild conspiracy theories, said on Tucker Carlson’s Fox News program that the city is “disgusting” and that its streets are filled with people “basically dying on drugs — they can’t even stand up.”

“There’s so much crime in the city,” she said. “It smells bad. I think it’s a terrible place.”

A spokesman for Adams, Fabien Levy, issued a brief statement Thursday: “Is Marjorie Taylor Greene referring to the hate speech she spews day after day?”

Greene’s galling comments came one day after she was drowned out and jeered at a rally in lower Manhattan near the courthouse that hosted Trump’s historic arraignment, and two days after Adams publicly admonished her to stay on her “best behavior” during her visit.

“New York City’s our home — not a playground for your misplaced anger,” Adams said at a Monday news conference.

Carlson teed up Greene’s rant by asking her about Adams’ comments. “How did his home look?” Carlson asked. “Pretty neat and tidy?”

“I can’t comprehend how people live there,” she said in her harangue.

Earlier in the segment, Greene said Adams had “threatened” her before her visit and claimed New Yorkers did not want her to be able to exercise her First Amendment rights.

“They wanted violence,” she claimed, though there was no significant violence in connection with the circus-like arraignment.

Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, the progressive Bronx-Queens firebrand, wrote on Twitter that Greene sounded like “a petty HOA complaint,” referring to private homeowners associations.
