GOP Rep.
Marjorie Taylor Greene of Georgia told an audience of young
conservatives on Saturday to add a monkey emoji to their social media profiles in light of the World Health Organization's emergency declaration on
monkeypox.
She also labeled herself a 'Christian Nationalist,' which earned appreciative noises from the crowd at the Turning Point USA Student Action Summit in Tampa, Florida.
Greene gave a brief but fiery speech on the second day of the conference. Her popularity among Republican teens and young adults was clearly evident in the standing ovation she received both before and after her speech.
'We have a new global pandemic, have you heard about this? Monkeypox, that's right,' the congresswoman said. 'It's the newest thing.'
'Listen, you guys have to update your social media, right next to your Ukraine flag emoji and your vaccine shot emoji, you need to make sure you have a monkey emoji.'
She appeared to be taking a shot at left-wing Twitter personalities who add emojis to their profiles to show allegiance with certain causes.
Greene joked, 'I want you all to be with it, you can't be behind, you have to have full outrage over everything that the left and the media tells you.'
