Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) sported a celebratory grin as she was mobbed by protesters and heckled Friday outside the Supreme Court.
The freshman congresswoman celebrated after the court overturned Roe v. Wade. Her presence drew a reaction from protestors on both sides of the abortion issue.
Multiple videos show the Georgia Republican sported a smile as she was surrounded by dozens of people.
