Marge is in control of the news cycle once again. She’s got people up in arms over her 60 Minutes interview, set to air tonight. Far be it from me to condemn something I haven’t seen, but I, too, was surprised that Lesley Stahl would lower the platform to allow Greene to appear on it. I guess we’ll see what that looks like soon enough.
Marge is also spearheading the protest in Manhattan on Tuesday. Again, it could be a big nothing burger.
For now let’s focus on this jewel. This clip exposes Greene not just as a liar, but as a liar who apparently believes nobody else can fact check the statements she makes, which she doesn’t bother to.
This fact check of Marjorie Taylor Greene by @MeidasTouch is brilliant. Watch until the end. pic.twitter.com/xgV32oNmNH

Biden gets blamed for everything, including things that happened under Republican presidents. And that’s nothing new. I recall a MAGA who was interviewed early on in Trump’s administration who was asked, “Why wasn’t Barack Obama in the Oval Office on 9/11?” The dummy’s answer was, “I think that’s something we should look into. Maybe he was out playing golf.”
Maybe he was but the salient point here is that Obama was not president of the United States in 2001, George W. Bush was.
The ignorance is stupifying. What’s the old saying? “We’re all born ignorant but to stay stupid takes a lot of work.” That should be made into a MAGA tee shirt.
Just a short final note on Greene. She’s already talking about violence in New York Tuesday, wink wink nudge nudge, and here’s how she’s attempting to avoid all culpability for that, should it occur.
What Marjorie Taylor Greene is saying is: “should I incite violence at my alt-right conspiracy filled rally in NYC on Tuesday—the plan is to blame liberals & “Antifa”claiming they wore MAGA gear…”

I have a feeling it’s going to be a long week.
What an idiot.
The difference between a fact check, and a check on ALL the facts.
Another thing media or much of anyone else don’t point out is their use of the word ‘tyranny’. As you know the word tyrant is used in the second amendment and that is the reason they shill for guns. It is not really the NRA. My brother gave me that interpretation long ago. I didn’t point out to him he was saying anyone in America could decide someone was a tyrant and shoot that tyrant. I should have said, “Well, then I can take my gun and shoot all those Republican tyrants in Jackson and burn down the shabby building the GOP headquarters is in right between the capital and the governor’s mansion.
The Second Amendment in full:
“A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed.”
I do not see the word “tyrant.”
One of the most vague, incoherent, arbitrary, sentences ever written. 🥱
They claim it’s to defend against would-be tyrants, even as they try to become tyrants themselves.
UW505 is correct. The 2cd is only one sentence. I would have sworn there was more to it. I had to buy ($2.00) a Kendal copy to be sure. My brother was more than likely just parroting right-wing talking points. He called the Michigan governor a tyrant once.
You will notice I didn’t say that’s what’s IN the amendment. I said THAT’S WHAT THEY CLAIM.
Yes, there are Neanderthal similarities, but they were a clever and compassionate offshoot of our species, who cared for their disabled and aged, buried their dead and left flowers in their graves, and decorated their caves with beautiful images. MTG would be ejected from their society as a malicious misfit, and would soon perish.
AMEN !!!
(You are singing my song, maybe better than I can.)
This thing represents America? WOW, what a fucked up mess of a country giving this brain dead amoeba a voice.
To be fair, it only represents a small part of Georgia. Unfortunately, the media has chosen to let its voice get amplified beyond its actual importance.
Unfortunately, that ‘small part of georgia’ has the house by the shorthairs. It isn’t just the media.
You expect MAGAts to remember who was president 22 years ago? Come on. Cut them some slack. Staying ignorant is hard work.
I.suspect a lot of his fans are the result of social promotion because being 11and still.in second grade damages their self esteem.
Whatcha bet they cannot tell you what happened on July 4? And in what year it happened? Forget naming two.signers. And anyway who cares about that?
You know, I’ve been trying to think of who she looks like ever since I first seen her. Thanks Ursula, another mystery solved.
