It had to happen sooner or later, but the bloom is finally off of the Freedom caucus rose. That doesn’t mean that human slugs like Bratty Matty Gaetz, Chip Roy, Fuhrer Paul Gosar, Cowardly Coach Jim Jordan, and James Comer won’t be able to get reelected to their safely gerrymandered seats, it just means that going forward, they’ll be interesting to nobody but themselves. The minority grip of insanity in the House has been broken.
And on that workbench of misfit toys, nobody is more exposed that Machine Gun Marjorie Taylor Greene. People tend to forget this, since it happened so long ago, and the sh*t fire hose of the Freedom caucus gushes so constantly, but she isn’t even a member of the Freedom caucus. She got booted from the caucus for being too batsh*t crazy for a bunch of batsh*t crazies. But since Bratty Matty made it possible for any one Representative to make a call to vacate the chair, Greene is equal in power to every other lunatic. And she uses it shamelessly.
But she’s made the kind of enemies that even money can’t buy. Gaetz wanted Cave-In McCarthy to suffer, and MTG defied him and put her weight behind McCarthy, whipping votes for him. Nothing Gaetz could do, since she was out, but stew.
But Taylor Greene also stewed at the way Gaetz treated her protege. And when Gaetz moved to oust McCarthy, she vowed revenge. But the ouster turned into a sh*t show, and the last thing Gaetz wanted was another round. Which is exactly what Greene forced, but she miscalculated. She thought that since the Democrats had voted to oust McCarthy, they’d vote to oust Johnson too. But Johnson was someone the Democrats found they could work with in a pinch. MTG was humiliated.
She’s also fed up. She’s tired of the House, she’s tired of the salary, and she’s tired of the Freedom caucus. But she has a plan.
Most people don’t remember that a couple of years ago Speaker Nancy Pelosi stripped Greene of her House committee assignments for being an uber bitch. Greene put that extra time to good use. Using her expanded FUX News exposure, Greene went on a nationwide shuttle hop tour to increase her name recognition, as well as establish a future nationwide deep pocket donor base. The money has flowed in.
And now she’s ready to cash in. She has no choice but to run for her House seat again, simply because there isn’t a US Senate seat in Georgia up for reelection this year. But if she gets reelected to her safely gerrymandered red seat, starting in January, MTG is going to be pretty much MIA in congress. And that’s because she’s going to be far too busy crisscrossing the nation activating her deep pocket donor base for a run against Democrat Jon Ossoff for his Georgia Senate seat in 2026. She’ll pull a Trump, declare early and pocket the cash for the campaign.
But there may be two small problems. I have written before that the secret to success in the House is your committee assignments. Constituents expect you to bring home the bacon. Even Klansman Steve King in Iowa got away with sh*t that David Duke didn’t until he lost his Agricultural committee seat, and lost his next reelection bid. Greene’s committee assignments don’t really bring benefits to her constituents, and she uses them for performance art anyway.
Second is that The squeaky wheel gets oiled. And even in the jalopy graveyard that is the GOP House caucus, she has gotten so loud and irritating that she’s attracted the attention of the last people on earth she wants paying attention, her constituents.Â
The Atlanta Journal Constitution recently sent a reporter to Greene’s district to interview a variety of her constituents. Clownish, insulting, and embarrassing were among the most used descriptions. Her constituents railed against the gridlock in congress, which they blamed her for, and a couple of them invoked the kiss of death, they’d rather vote for a Democrat than send Greene back to congress.
Machine Gun Marjie is toast, and so is the Freedom caucus. It took quite a while for the moderate GOP representatives, who actually want to govern and get reelected to buy a cheap Casio calculator and realize that 217-26 is stupidity. And now that they’ve finally found that bipartisanship can give them things to run on, the Freedom caucus and MTG are finally where they’ve always belonged. On a desert island.
I thank you for the privilege of your time.
Empty Green’s empty promises lead to an empty future for her.
If her constituents realize what a clown Kooky Pants is, perhaps there is a slight chance she won’t get reelected. Is anyone running against her? This would not be a bad time to do that. It wouldn’t be a shoo-in but it might be possible. Her seat is much like Bobo’s and Bobo had to hie her ass out of CO’s third because of her asinine behavior. It isn’t as if kooky has done jack diddly sh*t for the folks in her district and the only thing missing from her little example of performance art is giving some swinging dick a hand job in public.
Wishful thinking on my part I reckon since she likely was advised to move to NW GA because they would vote for a dumb-ass like her. I doubt the collective I.Q. of her district as increased any.
