Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, R-Ga., reacted Monday to New York Mayor Eric Adams’ (D) warning that she should be on her “best behaviour” during protests against former President Trump’s arraignment Tuesday.

Greene posted on Twitter, “Delusional @NYCMayor tries to intimidate and threaten me from using my 1st Amendment rights to peacefully protest Democrat’s unconstitutional weaponsization of our justice system versus our top Republican Presidential Candidate, President Trump.”

Greene was one of many Republicans to protest Trump’s indictment over his involvement with hush money payments made to Stormy Daniels, an adult film star, during the 2016 campaign to conceal an alleged affair. Trump’s allies have decried the investigation by Alvin Bragg, Manhattan District Attorney, as politically motivated.

The Georgia Republican tweeted, “Mayor Adams should care more about NY citizens being murdered, raped and robbed than an elected Member in Congress coming to town.” “Or should I be concerned that the mayor will use his government to arm his thugs, such as DA Alvin Bragg, against me?”

1776 Coalition Sponsored Do you know why Winsome Sears matters? Bo Snerdley with New Journey, here with a dire warning. We could easily lose the Black voters who voted for Trump if we take them for granted like the Democrat Party did for nearly 70 years. If you want to see Black voters support America First Policies in 2025 and turn out for Republican candidates like Winsome Sears, then we need to start the work today.

Adams had warned Greene about her plans to attend a Manhattan protest with the New York Young Republican Club supporting Trump.

Adams stated that “people like Marjorie Taylor Greene who are known to spread misinformation, hate speech… she stated that she’s coming to the town,” Adams said in a press conference on Monday. “Be on your best behavior while you’re in town.”

Trump had called for protests in advance of his possible indictment. Officials were concerned that these demonstrations might turn violent. New York City Police Department Sunday said it was ready to respond to any protests that Trump might face during his court appearance. It also noted that officers had been “placed on alert” for the event.
