The Marjorie Taylor Greene case

Marjorie Taylor Greene's conspiracies deserve mockery, not respect - "You can't apply logic to something wholly illogical. You'll never pierce the membrane of the right-wing bubble Greene inhabits, as she speaks a language most Americans will never understand."

After mentioning her bizarre claim about some $5.1 billion in COVID-19 relief money going to teach critical race theory, which she said “a racist curriculum used to teach children that somehow their white skin is not equal to black skin and other things in education,” the article's author said "Stop trying to make sense of her, because she lives in a world of nonsense and speaks a language most regular Americans will, thankfully, never understand."
Comparing Tyre Nichols to Ashli Babbitt?

During a House Oversight Committee meeting last week, Republican lawmakers decided to do away with the civil rights subcommittee, because apparently America faces no more civil rights issues.

One Democrat brought up the horrific beating death of Tyre Nichols at the hands of Memphis police officers as an example of why the civil rights subcommittee was still necessary.

Greene responded in a way that suggested she had swallowed a Fox News’ Tucker Carlson pill whole: “I’d like to also point something that I’d hope you share with me: There’s a woman in this room whose daughter was murdered on January 6, Ashli Babbitt.”

Preparing for this performative moment, Greene had invited Babbitt’s mother to the meeting.

...
Greene continued to dissemble about Babbitt: “As a matter of fact, no one has cared about the person that shot and killed her. And no one in this Congress has really addressed that issue. And I believe that there are many people that came into the Capitol on Jan. 6, whose civil rights and liberties are being violated heavily.”
Something that she has said earlier: Gaetz, Greene and Gohmert turned away from jail to visit Jan. 6 defendants | The Hill
Video shows officers, who said the group was trespassing and “obstructing entrance into this facility,” denying the trio entry.

“The supervisor came down and was standing right here and turned her back on me. The other one said she won’t talk anymore and that we’re trespassers,” Gohmert said in comments to the press after the situation.

“We’re in totalitarian, Marxist territory here. This is the way third-world people get treated,” he added.

Did anyone hear the latest crazy shit that MTG said. I can't gift an article from the AJC, so I'll just quote some of it.

https://www.ajc.com/politics/politi...orce-by-secession/3LL4AWUNJNBNJJQGD4KVBW5JUE/

U.S. Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene has a reputation for making controversial statements. Her latest, on Presidents Day, drew widespread criticism yet mostly a telling silence from her fellow Republicans.

On Monday, Greene pushed for a “national divorce” where the country would essentially be split in two by allowing conservative states to secede from those that lean Democratic.
“We need to separate by red states and blue states and shrink the federal government,” she wrote on her personal Twitter account. “Everyone I talk to says this. From the sick and disgusting woke culture issues shoved down our throats to the Democrat’s traitorous America Last policies, we are done.”

I'm wondering what color she thinks Georgia is, since we have two Democratic Senators and we voted for Biden in 2020. Georgia is purple and has been trending blue for quite awhile. MTG is a moron, but y'all probably already knew that.

But there were some signs Monday that at least some of the blowback had impacted Greene. She tweeted a bit of a caveat a few hours later, this time from her official congressional account.

“Impeach Biden or give us a national divorce,” she wrote. And in another post: “National divorce is not civil war.”

Impeach Biden for what? What a moron.
 
MTG is a moron, but y'all probably already knew that.
Thanks, sohy. And in other news, water is wet.

Having lived in that district the racism was rampant but I'm sure lots has changed. People like Large Marge live a life of utter fear. She has to play to her base and is the opportunist's opportunist. She'll switch parties if political need dictate.

As an aside, I find her very unattractive. When I see her I am reminded of Neanderthals. I have nothing against Neanderthals, lets be clear on that, but those close set eyes and brawniness just say 'lets go hunt some mammoth. Grunt. Grunt.' Her appearance and an obviously low intelligence is a major turn-off. Please pardon the sexism, and I apologize for any disparagement of Neanderthals.
 
That infamous "divorce" tweet:
Marjorie Taylor Greene 🇺🇸 on Twitter: "We need ..." / Twitter
We need a national divorce.

We need to separate by red states and blue states and shrink the federal government.

Everyone I talk to says this.

From the sick and disgusting woke culture issues shoved down our throats to the Democrat’s traitorous America Last policies, we are done.

She later backtracked a bit:
Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene🇺🇸 on Twitter: "People are ..." / Twitter
People are absolutely fed up and disgusted with left wing insanity and disaster America Last policies.

National divorce is not civil war, but Biden and the neocons are leading us into WW3, while forcing corporate ESG and gender confusion on our kids.

Enough!
 
I'm wondering what color she thinks Georgia is, since we have two Democratic Senators and we voted for Biden in 2020.
She probably misspoke, and meant to say “red Counties” rather than “red States“.
I‘m sure her district could manage its own infrastructure, taxation, legal system and stand alone economy, right? And she could be The Queen (though she clearly considers herself more of a princess). Win-win?
I have nothing against Neanderthals, lets be clear on that, but those close set eyes and brawniness just say 'lets go hunt some mammoth.'
Yup. Her pig eyes are too close together and set too high on her face (she lacks cranial space). Reminds me of a victim of parental chemical contamination.

Clearly a man after my heart. Perhaps she is a crack baby. That would make sense. When I lived there a couple across the hallway (living in an apartment) had two young children that were crack babies. Their appearance gave it away. I hope they are okay. The father was an addict and spent the money instead of taking care of his family. The Mom was a druggie too but not as bad as the Dad. It was a sad affair.

Happy Presidents’ Day to the G.O.A.T., President Donald J. Trump! 🇺🇸

We elected him in 2016. We re-elected him in 2020. And we will elect him for a THIRD time in 2024!!

You will always have my support, Mr. President!
...don't let it go down the wrong pipe, girl...
 
How that "divorce" would work.
Marjorie Taylor Greene 🇺🇸 on Twitter: "🧵Thread: …" / Twitter
🧵Thread:

Why the left and right should consider a national divorce, not a civil war but a legal agreement to separate our ideological and political disagreements by states while maintaining our legal union.

Definition of irreconcilable differences:
inability to agree on most things or on important things.

Tragically, I think we, the left and right, have reached irreconcilable differences.

I’ll speak for the right and say, we are absolutely disgusted and fed up with the left cramming and forcing their ways on us and our children with no respect for our religion/faith, traditional values, and economic & government policy beliefs.

With our federal government in over $34 TRILLION in debt and on the verge of default, clearly both left and right have proven that together they both aren’t responsible with hard working Americans tax dollars.
Verge of default??? Entirely manufactured by R's. I must note that the D's blew it when they refused to abolish the debt ceiling or at least raise it for the next few years of expected spending.
A national divorce would require a much smaller federal government with more power given to the states.

Hence, we would solve our debt and spending problems immediately.

Reducing the federal government would be easy because states would completely control things like education, trade and commerce, and communications to a much larger degree and the federal government to a much smaller degree.
A wimpy, "limited" federal gov't can't beat blue states into submission very well, and I don't think that right-wingers will like that very much.
 
More MTG:
We would immediately alleviate the need for departments like the Department of Education.

States would have full control of their public education.

Education would look different all over the country.

In red states, there would be varying degrees of more traditional public education, charter schools, homeschooling, technical training, and college and universities.

Red states would likely ban all gender lies and confusing theories, Drag Queen story times, and LGBTQ indoctrinating teachers, and China’s money and influence in our education while blue states could have government controlled gender transition schools.

Red state schools would bring back prayer in school and require every student to stand for the national anthem and pledge of allegiance while blue states would likely eliminate the anthem and pledge all together and replace them with anthems and pledges to identity ideologies like the Trans flag and BLM.

Perhaps some blue states would even likely have government funded Antifa communists training schools. I mean elected Democrats already support Antifa, so why not.
China's money and influence??? Seems like Jewish space lasers. :D

Red states would ban biological males from all girls/women’s sports and all girls/women’s places of privacy.

Red states would maintain the truth that there are only two genders and would require the biological identity of each person’s gender on their identification, not how the person identifies.

If you choose to identify differently you can, but if you want it on legal record you’ll need to move to a blue state in order to be legally free to lie to yourself and others about your identity.
So in red states, one's somatic gender identity will be one's only gender identity.
 
Red states would not have to abide by climate cult lies.

Red states would be completely free to build and use fossil fuel energy for their citizens.

Oil, natural gas, clean coal, and nuclear power would very likely be growing strong energy sources for red states.

Red states would be free from complying to green new deal regulations, but obviously all states would still have to comply with certain environmental protective requirements.

We love freedom to consume the energy we choose but not pollution, and just to be clear carbon is not pollution.
Keep those fossil-fuel campaign contributions coming. :D

Red states would throw out all Environmental Social Governance regulations and requirements on corporations and businesses.

Companies would no longer have to meet ESG scoring measures on anything from hiring to work culture to products.

In red states companies could hire based on work related qualifications not identity and return their focus on their customers, once again going back to real customer service and treating the customer like the king.

Blue states would likely enforce ESG and require identity to mandate everything perhaps even what customers are allowed to consume based on their identity. We already saw Democrats give life saving monoclonal antibodies to people of color before white people during covid.
A common belief in the Right is that anyone but a honky in a good position is an affirmative-action hire, so it's evident what's going to happen next: a racial caste system justified as "merit".
 
Of course interstate trade, travel, and state relations would continue.

However in red states, they could have different rules about store product placement on national store’s shelves. In red states, I highly doubt Walmart could place sex toys next to children’s toothbrushes.
Seems like right-wing outrage-mongering. Right-wingers keep going by outrage.

The federal government would have to maintain the Department of Defense but it would need to return to it’s original purpose.

The United States border and our national security would be the border the DoD would defend.

The federal government would have to defend the states from invasion, not enable daily invasions.

Dangerous international criminal organizations like Mexican Cartels that are responsible for murdering Americans, trafficking humans & drugs, and operating deadly gangs inside our country would be dealt with by the United States military.

And large grants and public funding to NGO’s that fuel the world wide migration to America would have to end immediately.
Sorry, not sorry George Soros.
First Communist China, then George Soros. What conspiracy mongering.
 
Law enforcement would likely look different in red and blue states.

Red states would likely have highly supported law enforcement officers and well funded agencies. Police officers would be well trained, paid, equipped, and seen as heroes once again, not portrayed as racists thugs.

Red states would also support citizen’s right to bear arms and self defense.

In red states, law abiding gun owners wouldn’t go to jail for shooting an attacker, their right to self defense and defense of property would be protected.

Crime rates would be very low. Red state citizens would be safe. Criminals would be locked away swiftly when they broke the law. Justice would be served.
The reality of red states is very different -- many red areas have a higher murder rate than many blue areas. All their beloved guns don't make much difference.
In blue states, who knows. Police could be anything from unarmed social workers to doing what Democrat lawmakers have been calling for all along, abolishing the police.

And in blue states, they would immediately disarm their citizens of course because those bad guns get up and kill people by themselves all the time.

In a National Divorce, the left could achieve their dreams of total and complete lawlessness.
The blue states will end up much like Europe, with guns restricted, cops not shooting many people -- and much less murder.
 
We must not ignore how different elections would be between red states and blue states.

In red states, they would likely pursue one day elections with paper ballots and require voter ID with only the red state citizens or even red state tax payers voting. Red states would not allow illegal aliens to vote, ballot harvesting, or mass mail in ballots ripe for fraud, and could ban election machines all together if they wanted to.

And blue states would be free to allow illegal aliens from all over the world to vote freely and frequently in their elections like the DC city council wants. Dead people could still vote. Criminals in jail could vote that is if blue states even have jails or prisons anymore. Maybe blue states would let kids vote too. I mean why not, if the left says children can chop off their genitals or breasts, surely the left would let them make permanent important adult decisions like voting.

Things like this sheriff is talking about could be legal like apparently it must be in California.
Shhh.. don’t say it’s voter fraud. That never happens in our free, safe, and fair elections, right?!
noting
CannCon on Twitter: "San Joaquin Sheriff ..." / Twitter
San Joaquin Sheriff discoveries regarding their voter rolls:
-93 people registered w/ birthdate of 1850
-232 registered at local prisons
-4,144 voters registered over the age of 90 (there's only 10.3k residents over 80 in that county...this number would drop off significantly at 90)
-125 registered to a non-profit, NGO or business
~300 voters with no first name
-110 potential double voters - same name, DOB, and address but different Voter ID numbers
-people registered at various homeless shelters
and one voter registered named...
"Jesus Christ"
 
MTG concludes:
Imagine if America decided to just go ahead and have a national divorce.

Hollywood elites and celebrities and all the brainwashed leftists women who watch the nasty women on the View, men who identify as women, and Democrat voters who suffer from the lifelong debilitating disease Trump Derangement Syndrome they caught from CNN wouldn’t have to see much less tolerate deplorables anymore.
They could live in their safe space blue states, own nothing, let their government decide and control everything, and most importantly protect their fragile minds from being shocked and insulted by those of us on the right who believe in life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.

Then Americans could choose which way, left or right, provides them with the best quality of life, and we don’t have to argue with one another anymore.

I am starting to feel like it’s the right thing to do for everyone.
 
Isn't that....sedition?

I'll ask what they ask all the time on Fox & Friends...Where's the outrage? Are Republicans silent about her statements because they think she's harmless? Or is it because they agree with her?
 
I’d say give them Mississippi and Alabama. I don’t know of anything important in either state. Less of a drain on federal taxes. That would be 4 less R senators. And possibly many MAGAts would move to the new Confederacy, reducing their voters in other states.

Plus we would have the entertainment of watching a country based on their ideals become an object lesson for the world

I'm about to take a trip out to Orange Beach Alabama again. It's fairly nice. I suggest we extend Louisiana and Florida to annex their beach because I neither want to give up a decent hangout spot, nor drive all the way around Alabama to get that terrifyingly delicious New Orleans cuisine.
