As if there’s any doubt where the real power lies with House Republicans these days, Marjorie Taylor Greene put out this bizarre video this morning to stake her claim. Certainly, Speaker-in-name-only Kevin McCarthy isn’t it. No idea what Dr. Dre or Trump critic Snoop Dogg think of this abomination but I suspect their lawyers will let her know soon enough.

Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) left many scratching their heads on Monday after she posted a video to Twitter highlighting her apparent role in Rep. Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) earning the speaker of the House position — all to the tune of Dr. Dre’s Still D.R.E. featuring noted Donald Trump critic Snoop Dogg.
“It’s time to begin.. and they can’t stop what’s coming,” she tweeted along with the video, which includes a smiling Greene walking through the halls of Congress as Still D.R.E. play.
The end of the video highlights a phone call Greene made to Trump on the House floor as McCarthy continuously tried wooing over his staunch opponents, including Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-FL). Also highlighted is the fact that McCarthy took a selfie with Greene on the House floor after he passed the vote threshold to become speaker. Someone notes that this could be considered McCarthy’s first action as speaker of the House.
“I couldn’t have done it without you,” said McCarthy. “You’re damn right,” said Greene.
UPDATE: Dr. Dre is not happy, calling her “hateful” and telling TMZ, “The mega-producer tells us … “I don’t license my music to politicians, especially someone as divisive and hateful as this one.” So, yeah … he ain’t a fan of her collab here in the slightest.”
UPDATE II: Dr. Dre had it pulled.
