Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) lashed out at her own political party for "misogyny" in a recent interview.

While speaking to conspiracy theorist Russell Brand on Wednesday, Greene suggested that "the patriarchy" was misunderstood.

"I was actually thinking about the patriarchy and how the patriarchy has been framed for many, you know, millions and millions of young women and teenage girls," she said. "And I was thinking, you know, the patriarchy is actually something truly different than how it's been framed and how these young women think."

"But the whole term, f--k the patriarchy, which is freeing to be able to say, needs to be redefined," she continued. "I think the patriarchy is so much different than how they've been taught."

But Greene noted that she had also been a victim of the patriarchy in the Republican Party.

"There's misogyny, not just coming from the media, perhaps, or the Democrats," she observed. "It's in our Republican Party, too."

"A lot of these guys, they want to control the power, and they really probably don't want women up there telling them what to do, or taking charge, or being in the lead," the lawmaker asserted.

CNN anchor Chris Wallace said he couldn't help but notice that the crowd at the Republican National Convention was similar to Russian President Vladimir Putin's sycophants.

During Tuesday night's convention broadcast, CNN correspondent Phil Mattingly reported that the crowd followed Trump's lead on when to stand and sit.

"It's a little bit like a Catholic mass in terms of when people are standing and when they're sitting when the former president stands," he explained.

Trump supporter David Urban agreed.

"Trump rallies are a little religion, a little rock," Urban said. "We're missing the rock tonight, but it's a little bit of everything."

Wallace pushed back with a different interpretation.

"Another way you could compare it is to the Kremlin, and when the leader of the Kremlin stood, everybody stood," Wallace noted. "And when he sat down, everybody sat down."

Fox News declined to broadcast Arizona Senate candidate Kari Lake's (R) speech at the Republican National Convention on Tuesday.

Instead, host Laura Ingraham showed a video feed of the convention crowd while interviewing a guest. The Fox News host never acknowledged that Lake was speaking.

"Hello America, welcome everybody who's watching at home, and welcome everybody in this great arena tonight," Lake's speech began. "Actually, actually, wait a minute. I don't mean that."

"The guys up in the fake news, frankly, all right, frankly, you guys up there in the fake news have worn out your welcome, right?" she continued, prompting boos from the crowd.

Lake asserted that the news media "lie about everything."

"You have spent the last eight years lying about President Donald Trump and his amazing patriotic supporters," she complained.

Other networks — including CNN, MSNBC, and Newsmax — aired Lake's speech in full.

A company reportedly owned by Donald Trump aimed to profit off of the former president's recent shooting by selling $299 sneakers with an image of his bloodied face.

The Associated Press revealed Tuesday that CIC Ventures LLC was selling the "FIGHT FIGHT FIGHT High-Tops" on a website that sells other Trump-related footwear.

"Introducing the FIGHT FIGHT FIGHT High-Tops," a description on the website said. "On July 13, 2024, an assassination attempt was made on President Trump at a rally in Butler, PA. Despite the attack, Trump stood tall and resilient, leading the crowd with the powerful chant 'Fight, Fight, Fight.'"

"These limited edition high-tops, featuring Trump's iconic image with his fist raised, honor his unwavering determination and bravery," the description added.

The company was taking pre-orders and said the sneakers would be available for delivery in September or October. The website claimed only 5,000 pairs would be manufactured.

The new sneakers are cheaper than Trump's golden "Never Surrender High-Tops," which sell for $399.

"The sale is another sign the former president's allies intend to capitalize on how Trump reacted after the shooting at a Saturday rally in Butler, Pennsylvania," the AP reported.

Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-FL) had to be held back during an interview at the Republican National Convention as he taunted Rep. Kevin McCarthy (R-CA).

McCarthy was speaking to reporters on Tuesday when Gaetz interrupted the conversation.

"What night are you speaking?" Gaetz said. "Are you speaking tonight?"

Bystanders pulled Gaetz away, but the lawmaker forced his way back toward McCarthy.

"Hey, you're not, if you took that stage, you would get booed off of it!" Gaetz exclaimed. "You would get booed off the stage."

NewsNation correspondent Joe Khalil described the incident as an "awkward moment" on the convention floor.

Gaetz is largely responsible for ousting McCarthy as speaker of the U.S. House of Representatives.

McCarthy has said that Gaetz pushed to remove him as revenge for refusing to kill an ethics investigation.

"I'll give you the truth why I'm not speaker," McCarthy explained earlier this year. "Because one person, a member of Congress, wanted me to stop an ethics complaint because he slept with a 17-year-old, an ethics complaint that started before I ever became speaker. And that's illegal and I'm not gonna get in the middle of it."

Eric Trump called himself a "compassionate person" and said "hearts break" for immigrant children who his dad wants to deport if he wins a second term.

During an interview at the Republican National Convention on Tuesday, MSNBC host Katy Tur asked Trump about how so-called Dreamers would be treated in his father's second administration. The former president pushed to remove deportation protections from Dreamers during his last term.

"What about the kids who were brought here, who have been working hard, who've only seen this as their home, who only know the U.S.?" Tur said.

"Yeah, and hearts break, right?" Trump replied. "And I'm a compassionate person. I'm actually a much more compassionate person than you could ever possibly imagine."

"You know, but what about, what about our citizens?" he added. "You know, what about the illegal immigrants who are literally taking up every single room in New York City hotels at taxpayer dollars while our taxpayers struggle, while veterans in this country are sleeping under underpasses all over the nation?"

The U.S. Supreme Court recently ruled that cities could punish homeless people for sleeping outside.

Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) claimed Tuesday that Democrats would murder Republicans "in the streets" if President Joe Biden was shot.

During a segment on War Room, guest host Natalie Winters interviewed Greene while regular host Steve Bannon was in prison.

Greene claimed Democrats did not want unity following the assassination attempt on former President Donald Trump.

"Then they have spent the past eight years vilifying us, demonizing us," Greene said.

"Hillary Clinton labeled us as deplorables," she ranted. "They called President Trump Hitler. They called all of us Nazis. They called all of us fascist, called us a threat to democracy. President Trump is going to destroy democracy. He's going to become a dictator."

"We're not unifying with that. There is no unity with that."

Winters asked Greene if Democrats would call for unity if Biden had been shot instead of Trump.

"You people would have been out in the streets burning down cities like you did the entire summer of 2020, looting stores, destroying businesses, attacking police officers, absolutely attacking federal courthouses," the lawmaker insisted. "You would be fighting us, murdering us in the streets if that had happened, but that didn't happen, did it, Natalie?"

Greene praised Republicans who "didn't go out rioting."

"We dropped to our knees, and we prayed for our president," she added. "We prayed for America, and we prayed to our God, who we know saved Donald Trump's life."

CNN interrupted its broadcast of the Republican National Convention Monday after a speaker attacked President Joe Biden despite the Republican Party's promise of a "unity theme."

After airing several minutes of former Yammer CEO David Sack's speech, CNN suddenly cut to host Jake Tapper.

"All right, that's David Sacks, the founder and CEO of Yammer, giving a message focused a lot on foreign policy," Tapper explained. "Some interesting language in that speech: senile, sleepy, demented, a reference to chants of 'eff Joe Biden.'"

"Certainly not in keeping with the unity, American unity theme we were told," the CNN host added.

Earlier in the day, RNC Chair Michael Whatley called for unity from Republicans and the nation.

"We must unite as a party, and we must unite as a nation. We must show the same strength and resilience as President Trump and lead this nation to a greater future," the chairman told delegates assembled at the convention.

Neighbors of the man who allegedly shot Donald Trump said that they spotted campaign signs for the former president outside his home in recent years.

WPXI first reported Monday that law enforcement officers had interviewed the neighbors of Thomas Matthew Crooks, who Secret Service snipers killed following the assassination attempt.

"It was around 10 o'clock this morning when we started to see some movement," WPXI reporter Lauren Talotta said during an afternoon broadcast. "That's when we saw investigators dressed in plain clothes as well as FBI agents approach this house."

"That's where the family of Crooks was last seen," she explained. "We spoke with a neighbor who told us that they've been outside the house going door to door, canvassing the neighborhood and speaking with people who live here."

Talotta confirmed earlier reports that said Crooks was a registered Republican.

"Records show he is a registered Republican and neighbors today told us that they've actually seen Trump signs outside of the home over the course of the last few years now," she added.

Alina Habba, an attorney and spokesperson for Donald Trump, complained Monday that people treat her cohorts like "some sort of criminals."

In an interview with Fox News at the Republican National Convention, Habba reacted to the news that special counsel Jack Smith intended to appeal a ruling that dismissed a classified documents case against Trump.

"Shocking, really, that they want to appeal it because their henchman, who was falsely appointed, and I've been saying this before," she told host Laura Ingraham. "He had no business in plain English doing what he did, which means the January 6 case [against Trump] should be dismissed."

Habba noted that other cases against Trump had not been dismissed, including a conviction on 34 felony counts in New York City.

"At what point are we going to start speaking English to the American people and saying, we're not allowed to do this?" she insisted. "It's un-American. Let's stop."

Habba argued that she did not get credit when she won legal rulings on behalf of the former president.

"Nobody talks about the wins, and it frustrates me," she said. "I've won many cases. They don't get reported."

"What they like to report and make the American people know is that we are some sort of criminals, that he is worse than Al Capone, you know, 34 indictments," Habba added.

Fox News host Dana Perino argued that Republican vice presidential candidate J.D. Vance was similar to former Democratic President Barack Obama.

During the Monday edition of The Five on Fox News, Perino spoke moments after members of the Republican National Convention moved to nominate Vance as Donald Trump's running mate.

"It is the senator from Ohio, the junior senator, J.D. Vance," Perino said. "He won in 2022. So he's been a senator just for a couple of years."

"Kind of reminds me of Barack Obama," she added.

"Yeah, exactly like Barack Obama!" co-host Jesse Watters exclaimed sarcastically.

"That just occurred to me," Perino explained.

Obama served seven years in the Illinois state Senate and over three years in the U.S. Senate before winning his presidential election bid.
