And then the Trump regime leaked to the press. They leaked to Axios that they have called the Secret Service on Marjorie Taylor Greene. And they're accusing Marjorie Taylor Greene, which she denies, of setting up a protest against Donald Trump back in early September at the Joe's Seafood and Steakhouse restaurant in Washington, D.C., featuring Code Pink. The Trump regime and Donald claim that Marjorie Taylor Greene coordinated with Code Pink where Donald Trump was going to go, and that Marjorie Taylor Greene then suggested to Donald Trump that he eat at the Joe's seafood restaurant in early September and then tipped off Code Pink to protest him.
0:56Code Pink was there and they were shouting at Donald Trump that he is the modern day Hitler. Do you remember that video? And then Donald Trump was furious that the Secret Service let the protesters get so close to him. And Marjorie Taylor Greene is posting that this is absolute BS, that Donald Trump and his regime are defaming her. So let's talk about what went down. So here's what Marjorie Taylor Greene posted after Donald Trump leaked to Axios that he has called the Secret Service to investigate her. She says the following from an account that's now called former Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene.
1:35She writes, this is exactly what I told this little White House tool that wrote this absurd, dangerous lie about me on behalf of the White House because they are mad at me for telling the truth about the president and forcing the release of the Epstein files. Now they are making up horrific lies about me. So here was the scoop from Axios. White House contacted Secret Service about MTG. Sources say, goes on to talk about how the relationship between Trump and former Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene has grown so poisonous that the White House has told the Secret Service to investigate Marjorie Taylor Greene for allegedly tipping off code ping protesters to be at the restaurant where Donald Trump showed up at in early September.
2:27We all remember that video. Trump aides view the Joe's seafood debacle as a point of no return in his relationship with Green, Axios writes. And again, Green is saying, I didn't do this. Stop defaming me. And it goes on to say, Green told Axios that any suggestion that she revealed Trump's dinner plans was an absolute lie, a dangerous lie, and that she would never do that. She said she She recommended the restaurant to Trump, but didn't know when he would go there. Green added that only the fancy lobbyists hang out a few blocks from the White House at 15th and H Northwest, and Trump aides knew of the reservation.
3:10She said, the story you should be writing is why didn't the Secret Service sweep the restaurant and have metal detectors at the door? Then it goes on to talk about it was Trump's September 9th outing at Joe's with J.D. Vance and several cabinet officials. You had the protesters chanting, free DC, free Palestine. Trump is the Hitler of our time. Then for weeks afterwards, Trump's aides say they tried to discern how Code Pink knew about his unannounced dinner plans, which were only known to a few people. the media wasn't given the heads up. So how did Code Pink know about it? Trump later called for an investigation of Code Pink saying they should be put in jail.
3:56Trump's team met with the Secret Service leaders to discuss the confrontation at the restaurant and his security. Code Pink spokesperson Melissa Garriga rejected the notion that Green told the group about Trump's dinner plans. That's absolutely comical. That did not happen. White House officials, meanwhile, didn't provide direct evidence that Greene alerted the protesters, but said their suspicions rest on two factors. Her suggestion where Trump should dine, officials say that after recommending the president go to Joe's, Greene repeatedly called the White House staffers the day of the dinner to confirm he was going.
4:36After Trump heard about Green's calls, he called her shortly before leaving the White House and confirmed his planned visit, the sources said. Green, who was a regular at the restaurant, didn't show up there when Trump and other officials were there, which struck some Trump aides as odd. Green's relationship with Code Pink. White House aides note that Green is friends with Code Pink co-founder, Medea Benjamin. Green and the organization are aligned on their opposition to the U.S., providing military aid to Ukraine and Israel. Benjamin last year praised Green for opposing Trump's bombing of nuclear sites in Iran and for calling to strip foreign aid from the Pentagon's budget.
5:18Benjamin and other members of Code Pink visited with Green after Green announced in November that she would resign from Congress in the middle of her third term. I have enjoyed a friendship with Medea for a few years now, even though politics says that that's not allowed. So on those factors, Donald Trump is saying that he believes Marjorie Taylor Greene sent Code Pink in there to protest him. Just to remind you, this was the protest at Joe's Seafood and Prime Steak and Stone Crab on Tuesday. And you can see the fear in Donald Trump's eyes. Play this clip. Trump is the Hitler of our time!

She says the following, Code Pink was in the restaurant because the White House and Secret Service did not sweep Joe's, did not set up metal detectors and check everyone in the restaurant, and did not do any of their normal security protocols that they do at every public event he attends. Only the White House set up President Trump's reservation at Joe's.
8:39Not me. I had zero knowledge of when his reservation was. The only people who could have tipped off Code Pink at the restaurant was the White House. And again, why didn't Secret Service secure the restaurant before he went in? This was in September and we had a great relationship two months before Trump attacked me and called me a traitor. And even now, I would never do what any of them are accusing me of. I would never, ever do anything to endanger anyone. I'll be calling my attorney. This is an absolute lie, a dangerous lie. I would never do that. One, the president's team set his reservation.
9:15I had zero involvement. Two, he went to Joe's in September, two months before he turned on me. Three, I do not have Medea Benjamin's phone number and do not have any contact with her. Four, the story you should be writing is, why didn't the Secret Service sweep the restaurant? Why didn't they set up metal detectors and check every person at the door like they do at every single public event? Why aren't you asking the White House those questions? And why did the president's team allow that to happen only a year after he was shot in Butler? Four, this is a dangerous false accusation against me. It's 100 % false.
9:52And you and Axios should never publish such a horrific lie. Anybody saying that this is true is lying. She also previously published America first, not foreign countries. Americans care about good paying jobs, affordable housing, affordable healthcare and health insurance, a good prosperous future for their children and the ability to live the American dream. It's really not that complicated. Put America first. Marjorie Taylor Greene also writes the following. Almost every Trump voter I see on X is so fed up that they are planning a 2026 tax revolt. And rightfully so. It's because Americans work their asses off, barely make ends meet, and the government consistently gives their hard earned tax dollars to foreign countries, foreign wars, and foreigners the U.S.
10:43government has allowed into the country. And nothing is given to Americans, which have nearly 40 trillion in debt, unaffordable health care, unaffordable housing, and the dollar loses value every day. Meanwhile, the government, no matter which party is in charge, screws over Americans. What will it take to put the American people first? She also responded to this account. It's an emoji of someone saying WTF. Am I hearing this correct? The no new wars president is plotting regime changes now in Venezuela, Colombia, Cuba, Greenland, and Iran after handing Syria over to the former Al Qaeda leader and trying to kick Thomas Massey and Marjorie Taylor Greene out of the Republican Party.
11:28Let me give you this final reminder of Marjorie Taylor Greene's kind of closing statements before she was pushed out by Donald Trump. And now Trump is claiming that there's a Secret Service investigation of her, which she denies having any part of what the Trump regime is leaking to Axios and accusing her of. I want to be crystal clear. She absolutely denies this. Here's what she said on Capitol Hill when she was with the Epstein survivors. Play this clip. I was called a traitor by a man that I fought for five, no, actually six years for. And I gave him my loyalty for free. I won my first election without his endorsement beating eight men in a primary.
12:12And I've never owed him anything, but I fought for him for the policies and for America first. and he called me a traitor for standing with these women and refusing to take my name off the discharge petition. Let me tell you what a traitor is. A traitor is an American that serves foreign countries and themselves. A patriot is an American that serves the United States of America and Americans like the women standing behind me. And here's what she says about health insurance. Play the clip. Health insurance is the coming crisis that we're trying to work on in the House right now, but they waited too late.
12:56Speaker Johnson kept the government shut down for eight weeks, not the government, I'm sorry, the House of Representatives kept us out of session for eight weeks during the government shutdown. But yet we could have been in Washington working day in and day out preparing for this upcoming crisis. In my rural district, I have 75 ,000 people that are on ACA tax credits. And here's the truth for the Republican Party. The large portion of those 75 ,000 people are Republican voters. And so this is a real issue. But instead of working hard to come up with a solution, they have waited to the last minute.
13:36And we're literally weeks away from those expiring. Do you think Republicans are going to rue the day that those Obamacare subsidies expire? It appears to be that way. There's a lot of arguments going on in the conference, and that's been happening all day today on the House floor. Well, there you have it, folks. Let me know what you think. Hit subscribe.

14:41After the crisis begins not the calm, but the change. It's going again, but different than before. Who scheidt and still is off, is different. That show us the patients, the experts, the experts. In Folge 5 of Endstation Insolvenz can be about how can a real power entstehen. Now listen to the podcast channel Gute Geschäfte von Kreditreform.
