The tweet in question to save you the click.
The replies are hilarious. Everyone is 100% in favor of this idea, but the MAGA dipshits don’t realize she’s literally only doing this to protect a pedophile sex trafficker.
So, MTGs plan is to call out the entire Republican party as corrupt and rally her supporters to air their dirty laundry to the public. Truly fantastic, MTG. Please don’t let anyone talk you out of it.
Is that tim pool without his beanie?
Sounds good to me?
Just make them all public all the time! That’ll show those fucking libs.
As a liberal I would be so fucking owned by this
Don’t pwn me bro!
Did someone say pwn? I’m hungry
Someone say prawns??
I don’t care if they are Republican or Democrat. If they are criminals, they should go to jail. Release the Epstein files and send Bill and Trump to jail.
Thats the thing I don’t think they get.
“Ok, well our guy will go to jail, but so will yours!!!”
“That’s fine.”
“But then we BOTH lose!”
“This isn’t a MAD doctrine situation. This is supposed to be more like a scorched earth situation. No corruption left behind.”
And I don’t think they grasp that.
What they don’t grasp is that we’d send our guy to jail: because they won’t.
That’s the difference.
When a corrupt democrat is exposed they’re expelled (bye bye Cuomo)
When a corrupt republican is exposed they’re re-elected.
Even if it’s egregiously overstated (Al Franken).
This still makes me mad.
Tbf though you cant become republican if you havent exposed yourself a couple times
It would do more to drain the swamp than anything Trump had ever imagined.
She is only saying it because she is positive the files will never get released.
Thus is the difference between MAGA/republicans and everyone else
Bill was lended Epstein’s plane one time to a regular AIDs relief tour in Africa.
Trump has been on his plane many times, but more importantly called him a friend and went to his island. Many times.
You sound as crazy as the people calling Stephen Hawking a kid diddler when you say stuff like that. You, like the majority of Americans, seem to have no fucking clue what actually happens around them.
But yes, I agree, release the reports and send people who broke the law to prison.
Saying Bill Clinton, the guy who couldn’t keep it in his pants in the Oval Office, is a kid diddler sounds as crazy as calling Stephen Hawking one?
Does your logic really sound logical to you?
Holy shit I agree with MTG
Harambe truly was this universe’s anchor being, and the decay is increasing exponentially
Wow…having seen almost NONE of the other Marvel movies, I walked out of Deadpool vs Wolferine just kind of confused. Not by the plot, that was simple as shit. It was insultingly simple.
The part that confused me was “WHO IS DEMANDING THIS MOVIE???”. I don’t watch a lot of movies, but the ones I do watch I like to make “worth it”. And everybody was going on and on and on about how great this movie was going to be once it came out. And then…
Ok, imagine going to this movie, without ANY concept about who these cameos are, who a LOT of the characters are supposed to even be, and without having seen a single previous deadpool or x-men movie before.
Yeah, movie kind of sucks now, doesn’t it?
But…silver lining…at least I was able to get the joke of a Lemmy post months after the fact.
…yeah, I still want my $12 back.
Nah it was great, but it was a love letter to people who had watched every previous Deadpool and all the old Marvel movies. It wasn’t meant to be an entry into the universe. I can understand why you didn’t like it having not seen the previous, but it just wasn’t made for you.
Also, it was a joyous watch for those who read the ‘90s-00s comics. My wife almost enjoyed my reactions as much as the movie.
Does it have much replay value, maybe not.
Let me stretch first. Don’t want to pull anything.
I’m kinda with you… Like, let them fight?
I think she meant this as a threat to get the party in line, but i can’t see any way this doesn’t blow up in their faces. If the leopards are eating leopard faces, will they notice mine…?
It’s so weird to see an MTG post and… yeah… I’m over here like: LFG.
Oh no. Please, stop.
TFW you accidentally say something smart and you don’t even know it
She’s threatening other Republicans to keep them in line with Trump.
The headline only touches on it but the article goes deeper into her comment.
It’s not an honest request to release anything, but a threat to release everything if they release the Gaetz report.
I think most of us know it’s not a genuine threat, but we don’t care. I hope the MAGA mob eggs her on until she doubles down, and I hope in the process of eating itself alive the entire GOP fails to pass any of their regressive legislation.
So it’s a good idea for multiple reasons?
Am…Am I agreeing with Marjorie Taylor Greene?
Is…Is Marjorie Taylor Greene making smart, intelligent, good points?
We really are in bizarro world.
When Democrat politicians fuck up, other Democrats will absolutely call for, and get, resignations. Even things that boil down to consenting adults in privacy can result in resignations when it’s seen to compromise a politician.
When Republicans fuck up, the party circles the wagons and goes full defensive. They will absolutely fight to resist any calls to resign, using any tactic they can think of to keep their latest pedo/pervert/con man/criminal in power. Only if the evidence is incontrovertible, and the outcry impossible to ignore, will they ever consider resignation, and as we’ve seen with Gaetz, that’s not even necessarily the end of their career.
MTG is exactly the kind of brainlet to think that Democrats work the same way Republicans do. She thinks “Release all the Ethics reports” will make Democrats back down, or at least intimidate them. A party agreeing to release ethics reports relating to their own people is utterly unthinkable to her.
Well, thank you for coming in and ruining the moment with your facts and reason and obvious statements and common sense
She also thinks it will matter. When a lot of voters have shown they have no problem voting for morally bankrupt people as long as they have the right letter next to their name.
A broken clock is still right 2 times a day.
You’re giving her too much credit.
Eh she’s more like a 24 hr clock. Or maybe one of those little “comic-a-day” calendars that you keep out on your desk that always seem to be on the wrong day until you remember to update it…
Don’t worry, you agree with her words but not her intent. She doesn’t actually want to do it, she just wants to use the threat of it to keep Gaetz’s report secret.
Marjorie Taylor Greene thinks that the Democratic party is far more morally corrupt than the Republican party. So therefore she believes that this is a nuclear option she does not realize that this is what everyone literally wants, well everyone except for the people in her own party.
Right. Not only does she completely misunderstand her enemy, but that misunderstanding has resulted in her explicitly saying, in public, that a whole lot of shady shit has been happening inside the GOP. We all knew that, but saying it out loud is something different.
There are weaknesses in fascism that we should look to exploit. One is that they pick people for loyalty first and competence a distant second. Another is their complete inability to have a good mental model of their enemy’s actual strengths and weaknesses.
MTG seems to be in the minority of elected Republican representatives in that she actually seems to believe the things she says
Don’t worry, she’s not, at least not on purpose. Even a blind pig can find an acorn once in a while.
Pretty sure she’s being sarcastic.Blind pigs are far more capable than this creature.
She’s not, i don’t think she wants this to happen and i think she knows that people won’t agree to this kind of thing.
But what she’s saying is right. The people deserve to know what our representatives are up to.
Point, point… it’s just a single point so it was probably just an accident
Does she think this is a burn? It’s absolutely what should happen.
What makes you think she thinks this is a burn?
Ok.
Do it.
The overwhelming problem is that the Dems tend to hold their members accountable while the republicans absolutely DGAF and happily keep literal criminals in their ranks.
She’s basically acknowledging there’s plenty of dirt, but the only offenses they’ll care about is their opponents’.
Even if the democrats weren’t actually holding their members accountable, it should be done. So what if dozens of politicians, both R and D get expelled as a result. Nobody should be upset that people who had bad ethics reports get expelled.
It would be ideal if both sides held their members accountable equally. My point was that this isn’t the case.
We know of some democratic lawmakers who have been held accountable, and a very small number of republicans. But, really we don’t know whether what we’re seeing is the norm, or if it’s just a tiny fraction being held accountable. It’s possible that there are more democrats that are committing unethical acts, but that they’re better at hiding it and/or have more complicity in covering it up. But, I think most sane people would say that everybody’s ethics violations should be public information. Even if it means hundreds of congresspeople losing their jobs and massive uncertainty in who will hold power. Ethics violations should be something voters get to know about.
Oh FFS. Your premise is that the dems are bad because they might be hiding evil stuff, or they’re better at hiding it, so that makes them just as bad as the republicans who get actually get caught?
Give me a break.
I already laid out what the problem is with republicans and how ethics are essentially meaningless to them when it comes to holding themselves accountable, but they freak out over tan suits, so I really have no clue what your point is.
Sorry to burst everyone’s bubble but this isn’t an actual suggestion to release the Gaetz report.
It’s a threat directed at other Republicans that if we are going to release the Gaetz report, we’re going to release many other reports too.
Marjorie is a die-hard bootlicker, and she’s not going to break lines with Trump.
Her full tweet is in the article. The headline only touches on her intentions.
I mean, it doesn’t detract the sentiment of the people. Do it. People want to see the ethic reports on everyone in a position of power.
…yes
Yeah, nothing wrong with that
You know what’s wrong though?
Her brushing over the fact that Gaetz is a pedo rapist. You’ll never hear her admit to this because the republican party never admits that they are the source of all the shit they accuse everyone of.
Fuck this waste of oxygen.
17 in georgia? Almost an old maid…
I kid, i kid.
So did Matt…
Those two are peas in a pod as well.
I hear this often on Democrat centric pages but I never even saw his name on conservative sites until his nomination. What is he confirmably guilty of? I’d like to know.
He hasn’t been found guilty of anything, yet, but that’s largely (imo) because the Merrick Garland DOJ has refused to prosecute and blocked attempts to independently figure out what the hell he’s doing.
I think it’s highly likely he’s guilty of sex trafficking minors and both the DOJ and the ethics committee know this.
