Marjorie Taylor Greene Book Snub Sparks Fury: 'Censorship!'
A reported decision by Hudson Booksellers not to sell Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene's upcoming memoir has sparked outrage among a number of conservatives.

Georgia Republican Greene's tell-all book, MTG, is set to be released on November 21. According to its publisher, the book "shares the story of her incredible ascension from small town business owner to MAGA firebrand."

In October, it was revealed that Greene, who is an avowed supporter of former President Donald Trump, has used quotes from some of her biggest political adversaries on the back of the book.

Donald Trump Jr. on X: "CENSORSHIP! …" / X
CENSORSHIP! @HudsonBooks refuses to carry AMERICA FIRST authors! They refused to carry @WinningTeamPub authors @JudgeJeanine & @KariLake. Now they are refusing @mtgreenee at airport bookstores! I also learned that they refused @marklevinshow best selling book. Why are they ignoring the silent majority?

What victimhood. I thought that they believe in capitalism.
 
MTG – Winning Team Publishing - will be released on Nov 21

"Known for her humor and honesty, MTG offers a never-before-seen glimpse at her decision to give up private sector success for public service,"

This is someone who once whined about how she doesn't earn that much while in Congress.

Marjorie Taylor Greene’s Nasty Book Claims Met With A Swift Fact Check | HuffPost Latest News and Marjorie Taylor Greene’s Nasty Book Claims Met With A Swift Fact Check at Yahoo
In the book, “MTG,” Greene claimed that no Democrats stayed to defend the House chamber during the U.S. Capitol riot, mocked lawmakers for being “hysterical” during the frightening ordeal, and ridiculed Rep. Jerry Nadler (D-N.Y.), who was 73 at the time, for not being able to run to safety quickly.

“Several of the Republican congressmen said, ‘We’re going to stay right here and defend the House chamber.’ As they began barricading the door with furniture, I noticed not one Democrat was willing to stay to defend the chamber,” Greene wrote.

Rep. Jason Crow (D-Colo.) told The Guardian that is “patently false” and that Greene “doesn’t exist in the same reality as the rest of us.”

...
Greene also ridiculed Democrats for “obligingly” putting on the gas masks and being “hysterical, with the plastic bags over their heads in fear of teargas.”

She wrote, “Just imagine Jerry Nadler trying to run for safety!”

Then she added, “saw that it was a problem that so many of our representatives were older and physically unable to run.”

Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene🇺🇸 on X: "Severe aging health issues ..." / X
Severe aging health issues and/or mental health incompetence in our nation’s leaders MUST be addressed.

Biden, McConnell, Feinstein, and Fetterman are examples of people who are not fit for office and it’s time to be serious about it.

These politician’s staff and family members should be ashamed of themselves by enabling and allowing their loved ones to remain in office all to hold power.

We are talking about our country’s national security and it’s all at stake!

25th amendment and other measures need to be on the table.

Marjorie Taylor Greene claims Democrats failed to defend House from Capitol rioters | Books | The Guardian - "Extremist Republican says in book ‘not one Democrat was willing to stay to defend the chamber’ but claim rejected as ‘patently false’"
Speaking to the Denver Post after the riot, Crow said: “They evacuated the folks on the floor but those of us in the gallery actually got trapped for like 20 minutes as the rioters stormed the stairwells and the doors.

“So, Capitol police actually locked the doors of the chamber and started piling furniture up on the doors to barricade them, while holding their guns out.

“I got into ranger mode a little bit. Most of the members didn’t know how to use the emergency masks, so I was helping them get their emergency masks out of the bags and helped instruct a bunch of folks on how to put it on and how to use it. I wasn’t going to leave the House floor until every member was gone, so I waited until we were able to get everybody out.”

On Wednesday, Crow told the Guardian: “Marjorie Taylor Greene doesn’t exist in the same reality as the rest of us. For those of us who were there on January 6 and actually defended the chamber from violent insurrectionists, her view is patently false. She doesn’t know what she’s talking about.”

Jason Crow is a former Army Ranger. Some other Democrats helped out, like former Marines Seth Moulton and Ruben Gallego.
Greene’s book pursues her familiar conspiracy theory-laced invective, taking shots at targets including Democrats, the media and Lauren Boebert, another Republican extremist with whom Greene has fallen out.

Discussing January 6, three days after her swearing-in, Greene claims to have worked “tirelessly” on objections to key state results but to have been “utterly shocked” when rioters breached the Capitol.

Some Republicans, she says “carried concealed weapons and were ready to be good guys with guns, defending themselves and others if need be” – despite guns being banned in the House chamber. Greene says she tried to stay close to Clay Higgins of Louisiana, a former law enforcement officer who was “one of the armed Republican members of Congress exercising his second amendment rights that day”.

What other bizarre things are in her book? I'm reluctant to finance her career, so we may have to select someone to serve as a "designated reader".

I'm pretty sure libgen has you covered if you really don't want to finance his career in your access.

Not that I'm going to provide a link, since that would be facilitating illegal activities, but I'm sure Google can find what you are looking for.

"America First" folks tend to be more "America First...unless we can get a better deal elsewhere."

If they moved - let's say - red hat production to the US and paid the workers a living wage to make the product, they'd slap a Joe Biden "I Did That" sticker on every single one and complain loudly about the price. Then they'd jump on Truth Social or whatever other forum they have to find "deals" for red hats produced in "Communist China" or some other non-America First market.

Weird though, that Marjorie Trailer Queen's book is printed in Canada. I thought MAGAs believed that the Great White North is a socialist hellhole?
 
Marjorie Taylor Greene's Book Is a Flop
Less than a week after its release, Marjorie Taylor Greene's book isn't performing as well as that of Republican Senator Ted Cruz, according to data available on Amazon.

...
n the book, Greene said she speaks of January 6, 2021, gives "inside stories about the Swamp you won't hear anywhere else" and writes about "Jewish Space Lasers"—a reference to an antisemitic conspiracy theory she spread in 2021, when she said that the Rothschild banking family was behind an anti-Christmas plot.

MTG review: far-right rabble rouser makes case to be Trump’s VP | Books | The Guardian - "Marjorie Taylor Greene’s book swims with venom, score-settling, fiction and self-absolution: a very Republican stew"
On the page, Greene repeatedly reminds us that she is a mother and a Christian. As for her divorce in 2022 from her long-suffering husband and business partner? Barely a word. As for its alleged surrounding circumstances, affairs, “tantric sex guru” and all? Nada.

Greene lies about January 6. She claims Democrats abandoned the House chamber to the rioters and exited without resistance, in contrast to brave, gun-toting Republicans. Not so. Jason Crow, a former army ranger from Colorado, was among Democrats who stood their ground and helped members of Congress escape.

...
Greene offered no rebuttal. Like Trump, she embraces the insurrectionists who attacked Congress. She writes about visiting them in lock-up, calls the DC jail a gulag.

“The events of January 6 have been mischaracterized by the Democrats … and these people cruelly mistreated,” Greene writes. “They will not be forgotten. I will never forget.”

Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene🇺🇸 on X: "FBI Director Chris Wray ..." / X
FBI Director Chris Wray claims to prioritize terrorism but doesn't even know about the jihadists who occupied our Capitol!

Wray’s FBI targets innocent conservatives and MAGA grandmas who peacefully walked through the Capitol on J6 instead of real threats. We cannot trust them to keep us safe.

On Wray’s watch, the FBI has been fully weaponized against Biden’s political enemies.

She addresses a certain well-known absurdity.
In her book, she also offers a meandering defense of her famous comment about so-called Jewish space lasers, insisting she is not antisemitic. Instead, Green advises, she has “donated to the Temple Institute in Israel, a fund that helps rebuild the Jewish temple on the Temple Mount in Israel”.
Click to expand...
The article then went into her threats of murdering Nancy Pelosi and other notable Democrats. Congressional Democrats kicked her off of her committees back in 2021 because of those threats.
In her book, Greene does not address such escapades directly. Instead, she dumps on the Squad and revels in her liberation from committee work, which led to her repeated demands for roll call votes bringing the House to a crawl.

“With all my free time, I stayed on the floor for every bill I could and asked for recorded votes,” she recalls. “It became kind of my thing, shocking representatives on both sides!”

I don't see how her fellow Republicans can put up with her.
In MTG, Greene proudly admits calling Lauren Boebert, a Colorado congresswoman and rival rightwing rabble rouser, a “little bitch”. Greene has also reportedly referred to Boebert as a “whore”. Lesson: some people never leave middle school.

Purportedly, Boebert stole Greene’s thunder by plagiarizing and introducing as her own an article of impeachment Greene had already filed against Biden. In her book, Greene also accuses Boebert of being the driving force behind her expulsion from the rightwing House Freedom caucus.

Not that I would want anyone to punish themselves by actually reading her book, but I wonder if it contains some 'inappropriate material' like what they try to ban other books for? After all, she showed pornographic pics in congress.
