MTG Roasted For Her Cringey Pronunciation Of 'Indictable' During House Committee Hearing

The MAGA Rep. was mocked online after she awkwardly mispronounced the word 'indictable' during a House Homeland Security Committee hearing.

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.

People Describe The Most Insane Event They've Ever Witnessed

Chaos is, according to the lexicographers at Oxford, a "state of complete disorder and confusion."

Humans find chaos entertaining to watch—hence the popularity of so-called reality TV—but not as much fun to be in the thick of. People may love the moment a "Real Housewife" flips a table, but would be less thrilled if a family member did it during dinner.

Kim Kardashian Mocked For Beige 'Ozempic Santa' In NYC Skims Store—And This Is Why We Can't Have Nice Things

Santa Claus has survived centuries of tradition, but he was no match for beige, shapewear, or Kim Kardashian. A holiday TikTok posted last Monday to the SKIMS account sparked widespread mockery after showing Santa Claus visiting the brand’s New York City flagship store in a look that was unmistakably on-brand.

Gone was the iconic red velvet suit. In its place was a muted beige ensemble that looked less North Pole and more minimalist showroom chic.

Guy Calls Out Bugles For 'Ruining' His Childhood After They Changed Their Iconic Shape

Possibly more than any other generation, Millennials were raised with interactive snacks and candies. From dippable cookies and candies to chips perfectly shaped for scooping and build-your-own pizzas, consumers found the interactive experience to be more important than the food itself.

Bugles are a fan favorite example, because while the chips were tasty and crispy, with a solid variety of flavors to choose from, the real point of them was their iconic shape, like the mouth of a bugle horn. Though we didn't openly talk about it at the time, it was a Millennial pastime to put the Bugles on our fingers like long nails, pretending we were fashionistas and gremlins and vampires.
