Whoa whoa whoa. Kirk would not approve of her saying this stuff. She should shut up and get in the kitchen according to him. But Kirk got shot in the neck and would be perfectly fine with what happened to him. So who cares what he thinks.
She’s still a racist sack of shit and this is another FAFO. Zero sympathy and get lost.
“Typical of Republican men telling a woman to ‘shut up get back in the kitchen and fix me something to eat.”
Wait, so as far as I understand she wants the sexism removed from republican party but wants all the other stuff like racism and bigotry to remain? I am sorry dear, they come as a package, drown in the shit hole that you fought so hard to protect.
She does seem to genuinely believe in protecting kids… But she has an extremely warped idea of what that entails. The Epstein thing has been an obvious wedge between her and Trump, because it’s one thing she has dug her heels in and refused to drop. Because (again) she does at least seem to care about protecting kids. And she sees the Epstein stuff as an obvious “if you protect the files, you’re protecting pedos” signal flare. Broken clocks, I suppose. At least she has shown that she hasn’t been willing to budge on this one specific issue.
Yeah, MTG is crazy but she hasn’t been bought, which is unfortunately rare
I like the new MTG a little more than I liked the old one.
True, but that is like saying you like typhoid a little more than cholera.
Fair.
As it turns out, criticizing trump is bad for oligarchs.
STFU, Trailer Queen. You helped put us here.
She’s swinging for the midwestern mom vote and it’s going to work, she can build a fanbase there.
“Standing up for American women who were raped at 14, trafficked and used by rich powerful men, should not result in me being called a traitor and threatened by the President of the United States, whom I fought for,” she said.
But the current President is one of those rich powerful men raping the trafficked. What did she expect would happen?
American women who were raped at 14, trafficked and used by rich powerful men,
I’m wondering if that is a description of herself?
Maybe that’s why this issue is her line in the sand?
She expected support for her run for Senator. She got none.

I don’t think even she is so stupid that she is just now realizing that the Republican Party is…full of Republicans.
nah she wants the sexism removed but wants to keep racism and bigotry intact. No one told her its a package deal.
The consultants got her. She’s going centrist for a presidential run
Likely Senate first, and then try and inch her way into the neo(shit)libs democratic party, then presidential run.
“I have been trying tell all you ‘men’ that our kitchen pantry is empty with spider webs, our house has been ransacked, the windows and doors are broken and busted, and the greedy rich bastards have twisted your minds into a sick state that you all continue in the two party toxic political system that acts like college football playoffs yet is burying you and your children and their children and their children in a pine box in a shallow grave,” Greene continued.
Hmm. There’s a degree to which it feels like she’s shoving canned goods from the pantry out of sight into her purse while she’s saying this, but I do agree with her basic point here. Especially the way parties are treated like football teams.
Probably would have worked better if she hadn’t abandoned the metaphor and swapped to another one.
She went with whatever she felt would be most impactful for the message portion, rather than the whole thing.
It seems disingenuous because it is. It’s not a coherent thought. At best it’s a bunch of unrelated thoughts crammed together. Probably based on what she thinks will hit. As sound bites.
So don’t feel bad not trusting it; it’s not even internally consistent. Even if you agree with part of it, a stopped clock is right at least once.
I hate it when this happens
Shirley, you know someone worse.
There’s always Ted Cruz, and don’t call me Shirley.
I’m sure we all do.
And don’t call me Shirley.
Please don’t call me Shirley
pls call me shirley senpai uwu
This is the process of MTG becoming Woke.
He, even Hitler loved dogs…
“Two party toxic political system”
Maybe she really is going to run with Musk’s party
Well someone convinced Trump to divide the Republicans into groups apparently, so they’ll probably split into Repugnant, Repulsive, and the Democrats will find a way to split into Corporate centrists and progressives, why… Because they can’t possibly take advantage of a divide and try to win back both houses
I seriously wish a whole lot more conservatives and “moderates” and “independents” would pay more attention to sportsball instead of voting for Republicans for culture war reasons. They definitely treat culture war/wedge issues like sportsball…
You just gave me an idea.
Implement voting in sports, but only for big things. Who should be LocalTeam’s coach? Who should be HomeTeam during BigGame? How much should your team splurge on the latest star player?
They would be too busy with all of that to worry about politics.
They’re pissed about sportsball because sportsballers started protesting while still respecting the flag by kneeling and now they refuse to watch sportsball.
I mostly remember her screaming at a man who survived a school shooting that he was a crisis actor.
And screaming “you lie” at Joe Biden at his SOTU for no obvious reason.
Maybe people would listen to her if she didn’t act like an unhinged lunatic grifter.
“Do I have to stay until I’m assassinated like our friend Charlie Kirk. Will that be good enough for you then?” she wrote
Sounds like she’s just discovered the “find out” part of “fuck around” might possibly apply to her, so she’s out.
She bailed exactly as her pension matured. She’s gonna try for a presidential run as a third party outsider.
Some guy once said “The enemy of my enemy is my friend.” It’s possible this may apply here.
Some guy once said “The enemy of my enemy is my friend.”
The concept behind the proverb “the enemy of my enemy is my friend” is found in the ancient Sanskrit treatise Arthashastra, attributed to Kautilya (also known as Chanakya), a political philosopher and advisor to the Mauryan Emperor Chandragupta I.
This treatise, dating to around the 4th century BC, outlines statecraft, military strategy, and economic policy, and it formalizes the strategic idea that a ruler’s enemy is the natural ally of a neighboring power that is itself threatened by the same conqueror.
Specifically, Kautilya describes a king whose territory borders that of an enemy as a natural ally of the conqueror, because they are separated from the conqueror only by the enemy.
This strategic framework, known as Rajamandala or the “circle of kings,” was used to inform foreign policy and alliances in ancient India.
It doesn’t. She’s an asset for someone with money every politician I know of is. Don’t trust a single one, use them and throw them away like single use packaging.
Good. The more the Republican voting block is fractured the better.
More likely governor.
Woman experiences leopards eating her face while live streaming it.
Not really, I think shes just trying to save face.
The leopard didn’t eat [gestures somewhere] all my face! I am chosen! I am selected!
MTG, standing eyeball-deep in feasted leopard shit, gnashing and tearing away the flaps of flesh the leopard left behind
Really? That would be quite a convincing act. “Typical of Republican men telling a woman to ‘shut up get back in the kitchen and fix me something to eat.’ F*** you in the sweetest most southern drawl I can enunciate” doesn’t seem like a show.
She’s resigning exactly two days after her pension kicks in.
In fairness, we would all do it this way. Would you stop a week short? Fuck no, I worked for that.
I don’t like her and I don’t like nearly everything she’s done, but this is the most honest way people in congress make their money. I’d be more angry about most of the other ways.
She’s also worth 21 million dollars now, when she entered congress she was worth less than half a million. Her stock trading game has rivaled Nancy Pelosi’s since she entered office. This should be the bigger scandal. It’s not because it bipartisan.
Honestly, —assuming there’s no fuckery here, which in fairness is a bold assumption— I kind of respect the resignation. She fucked us, got her bag, and fucked off. That’s far better than her becoming a fixture of Washington for the next 50 years.
Her stock trading game has rivaled Nancy Pelosi’s
I don’t know how Pelosi became this issues poster child, other than normal Republican boogie-man creators. She’s bad, don’t get me wrong, but far from the worst.
Here’s a look at the top 10 for 2024:
David Rouzer (R-N.C.), Representative, +149.0% Debbie Schultz (D-Fla.), Representative, +142.3% Ron Wyden (D-Ore.), Senator, +123.8% Roger Williams (R-Texas), Representative, +111.2% Morgan McGarvey (D-Ky.), Representative, +105.8% Larry Bucshon (R-Ind.), Representative, +98.6% Pete Sessions (R-Texas), Representative, +77.5% Susan Collins (R-Maine), Senator, +77.5% David Kustoff (R-Tenn.), Representative, +71.5% Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.), Representative, +70.9%Even your tiny modicum of respect for her behavior is exactly what’s wrong with everything right now.
This acceptance of institutional raiding for the sake of individual material gain has completely eroded any sort of civic reprisal. These actions are inherently antisocial and yet we have people praising folks who “got their bag”.
America deserves what it’s getting.
A snake eating its own tail is never not entertaining. Only in a pit such as theirs, it’s hard to tell where one ends and the next begins.
