Marjorie Taylor Greene on Saturday reportedly did the same thing she has criticized President Joe Biden for: mispronouncing the name of 22-year-old slain nursing student Laken Riley.
Greene made headlines when she interrupted the president's State of the Union speech to force him to say Riley's name. Biden did say Riley's name, but some said he mispronounced it, and he also came under fire for saying she was killed by an "illegal." Biden later apologized for the "illegal" remark.
Afterward, Greene said Biden failed to pronounce Riley's name correctly.

But on Saturday, Greene went to Trump's rally in Georgia, where he purportedly once again defamed E. Jean Carroll.
Talking prior to Trump's speech, Greene told News Nation the story of what happened at the latest State of the Union address. In doing so, she appears to say "Lincoln" Riley, which is what she says Biden said, too.
News Nation reported that she did indeed pronounce Laken wrong in the interview.
"I do want to get your reaction to what we just heard from congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene," the news host said. "Even Trump tonight criticizing Biden for mispronouncing Lincoln Riley's name. And then we hear the congresswoman, speaking to us, also mispronouncing Laken Riley's name at one point during that sound bite."
Democratic strategist Adam Parkhomenko raised the issue on social media.
"OMG: Listen very carefully. Marjorie Taylor Green doesn’t just say Laken’s name wrong, she says she shouted the wrong name to Biden," Parkhomenko wrote on Saturday. He included a video of Greene's comments.
"We've all been questioning his mental capacity," Greene said. She noted that Biden held up a pin she had given him prior to his speech, and said she shouted, "Say her name, Lincoln Riley. He picked up the pin and he had it there easy to read, Laken, but he said Lincoln Riley."
In a separate comment, Parkhomenko asked, "Did Marjorie Taylor Greene mess up the name or did she do it to get him to say the wrong name?"
He also included a transcript that appears to suggest she said "Lincoln Riley."
"Here is the audio and transcript I pulled from News Nation interviewing Marjorie Taylor Greene at Trump’s Georgia event," the strategist added.
