Among the listeners who called in to the program was one who was no fan of the 47-year-old Greene.
“I just want to say, ‘Thank god for Joe Biden,’ " one caller said, adding that they felt Greene was “an embarrassment to the state of Georgia.”
“Well, we all have our opinions,” one of the show’s hosts said, while Greene simply smiled.
“Amen to that, and I’ve got mine,” the caller replied.

Elsewhere in the call-in portion of the show, another listener lambasted Greene for refusing to accept the results of the 2020 presidential election.
“You all refuse to accept Biden. You refuse to do it,” the caller said. “And maybe we didn’t like Trump, but he won and so that was it. You all are not — you will not — accept the fact that Joe Biden won. And that is the whole thing.”
The caller continued: “You’re not going to accept it. You’re going to keep on, and keep on, and peck, peck peck. And you’re not going to get anything done.”
Greene, one of former PresidentDonald Trump’smost loyal allies in Congress, has previously falsely claimed that the election saw “MASS voter fraudon a scale that should terrify every American regardless of political party.”
She has also previously said the election was “stolen” from Trump, and alleged that Biden “lost” the election.
No stranger to headlines, Greene has made courting controversy part of her political brand since before being elected in 2020.
Since taking office last January, she hasamassed nearly $50,000 in finesfor not wearing a face mask on the floor of the House of Representatives. And she’s previously been known forperpetuating baseless conspiracy theorieson social media, including supportive statements about the far-right “QAnon” movement. (She has since said she regrets those past beliefs.)
