Green caused a scandal for representatives of foreign media
The politician rudely interrupted a British correspondent, saying that she "didn't care" about foreign media and "advised" her to "return to her country."
The incident occurred during a press conference when a British Sky News journalist tried to ask Green about the leak of information regarding US strikes on the Houthis.
The congresswoman immediately interrupted her and began to inquire about the reporter's nationality. Upon learning that the journalist was from the United Kingdom, the congresswoman refused to comment on the situation.

Marjorie Taylor Greene: "Wait what country are you from?"
"From the UK"
"OK we don't give a crap about your opinion and your reporting. Why don't you go back to your country. We have a major migrant problem. You should care about your own borders" pic.twitter.com/l1lYrYdEbH
"We don't care about your opinion or your reporting. Why don't you go back to your country?" Green said.
After that, several American journalists tried to bring the conversation back to the topic of the leak, but Green avoided answering and switched to the issue of migration.
She also accused Joe Biden's administration of "chaos in the country" and ended her interaction with the media, saying she "doesn't care about fake news."
