Al Green's removal has led social media users to call it a "double standard" after past Republican hecklers of Democratic presidents were allowed to stay.
“They just kicked African American Congressman Al Green out of Trump’s Speech,” wrote Democratic pundit Brian Krassenstein on X. “Weird that Marjorie Taylor Greene was never removed when she went off at Biden’s SOTU a few years ago.”
Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) voted Thursday to censure Rep. Al Green (D-TX) for speaking out at President Donald Trump's speech to Congress even though her boyfriend, reporter Brian Glenn, urged Republicans not to support the punishment.
