Georgia Republican Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene was widely mocked online after she awkwardly mispronounced the word "indictable" during a House Homeland Security hearing.

The hearing, which focused on "marking up" articles of impeachment against Alejandro Mayorkas, the Secretary of the Department of Homeland Security, was convened to discuss allegations against Mayorkas, accusing him of a "willful and systemic refusal to comply with the law" and a "breach of public trust" regarding his handling of the border crisis.


Mayorkas vehemently denied the accusations, emphasizing the extensive information and cooperation provided to Congress to showcase adherence to immigration laws.

During her contribution to the hearing, Greene made a notable mispronunciation, stating:

“This historical evidence is overwhelming that the Founding Fathers intended impeachment to be used to deal with the commission of indictable crimes."

However, instead of pronouncing "indictable" correctly as "in-die-tah-ball," Greene said "in-dick-tah-ball."

You can hear what she said in the video below.

Oddly, one would think Greene would know how to pronounce the word "indictable" considering she's a major supporter of former President Donald Trump, who faces four separate indictments across multiple state and federal cases, particularly regarding his efforts to overturn the results of the 2020 general election.

Greene was swiftly mocked as a result.


Greene has made groanworthy mispronunciations before.

Notably, she made headlines after telling her supporters in a video from her official podcast that the government is planning to monitor their eating habits and “zap” them to make them eat meat that's been grown in a "peach tree dish."

Greene appeared to refer to a "petri dish," the name for a shallow transparent lidded dish that biologists use to culture different types of cells, including bacteria and molds.

Regardless, she showed no signs of correcting her error as she cautioned her followers "to accept the fact that the government totally wants to provide surveillance on every part of your life."

Previously, Greene was also mocked for claiming that Speaker Emerita Nancy Pelosi is running a "gazpacho police," confusing the word for the Nazi secret police—"Gestapo"—with the word for a cold soup and drink made of raw, blended vegetables that originated in southern Spain.
