Conspiracy theorists need to get new material. Satanists are soooooo 1980. But if that's what they want I suggest they look in the mirror because it isn't Clinton that fits the description of the anti Christ. I think pedophiliacs are now 1980s Satanists.

I would like to hear what she would have to say if one of her children’s schools had an incident, or if she doesn’t have kids what she would say if there was a school incident in her home town.

Frontline definitely has a point of view. I didn't see the one last night, but I can't think of one I ever watched where I didn't come out more liberal than I went in. I love the show and I think it is very well researched, but I question it as unbiased. I will wait for additional evidence - just to be fair. It can be a struggle to be "unbiased" when all the facts point in one direction. In this case the only new evidence that could come to light to let Trump off the hook is that the former president was tied up in the basement of the White House and it wasn't actually him making those public statements. Yes - this one seems quite transparent. But I've watched a lot of Frontline with subjects that are more complicated and don't have a clear story. But Frontline cleverly gives you the facts in a way that you think you came to your own conclusion, but when everyone comes out with the same conclusion, maybe they were more manipulative than you realize.

If the best way to control people for her is to take away their guns how does she manage to parent or do anything? If I was going to target conservatives, Las Vegas would not even be in my top 10 choices. She must have an exaggerated sense of self to think people are going to kill others just so they can get laws passed limiting her gun rights.

She must have an exaggerated sense of self to think people are going to kill others just so they can get laws passed limiting her gun rights. Oh she definitely has an exaggerated sense of self. One thing that’s kind of fun to watch is how she went from this deeply red, Trump loving pond into the big national ocean where there’s a lot of unfriendly fish that don’t like her, and now that the media smells blood in the water, plenty of sharks. At her town hall last night, when a member of the media stood up and tried to ask a question, Greene got all discombobulated. She might not have ever had this kind of intense spotlight on her before. It’s not as fun as being cheered on by your friendly neighborhood Trump supporters. I hope she gets kicked out of the House for conduct unbecoming and comes home with her tail between her legs, whining about how mean everyone is to her, just like her BFF Trump.

But Frontline cleverly gives you the facts in a way that you think you came to your own conclusion, but when everyone comes out with the same conclusion, maybe they were more manipulative than you realize. documentaries are not sterile unbiased documents. they reflect the viewpoint of the team that puts them together.
the challenge of something that was 5 years of documentation, like the one that I recommended and enjoyed, is to find situations, statements, and people that share some common link. you need not get a hamstring stretching for Trump. this shit seems quite coherent to me.
candidly, I didn't have any bias watching it. I was totally unprepared for what they did. but the linkage and lineage between Charlottesville and the 1/6/21 insurrection are striking to me in terms of the type of participants (demographic, cultural, and fervor). if they are not connected in any way, I would need someone to convince me of that, at this juncture.
and yeah, that is more than a little terrifying to consider.

There is now a clip of her saying Jewish space lasers started the most recent California wildfires. Of course they did.
The news last night had a reporter asking one of Greene’s Dalton constituents what she thought about her, and the constituent said ‘I think she’s crazy, I mean literally, she’s a lunatic. ‘
Amen, sister.

Meanwhile, Cindy McCain and Doug Ducey were actually (literally) censured for acknowledging Joe Biden won the Presidency. These people are terrible.

If she wasn't a well off white conservative she would have been labeled schizophrenic and locked up if she spouted this shit on the street. How do you even respond to that level of delusion?
Also why would Jews target California with their space lasers? Taking history and modern politics into account I can think of several more suitable targets.

I heard a commentator on MSNBC this morning suggesting that the Democrats should make the Republics "own" Marjorie Taylor Greene in the way that Republicans make the Democrats own AOC, that is that all Democrats are like AOC. Both are on the edges of their parties (Greene a bit more I would say). So yeah, MTG, you represent what all Republicans believe and promote.

I think her mask was actually "cens ored", but can't find the picture now. I should have been more attentive of two words so close in spelling but with significant difference in meaning.

Who is censoring her?
This is what conservatives sound like to me. And Lisa Kudrow is hilarious and nails this perfectly.

When conservatives keep saying censoring does anyone else hear Inigo Montoya from the Princess Bride?

no, you don't have permission to say that. at least not in private media. sorry, but private companies have higher standards than you do.

I accept your apology and in no way hold you accountable for ‘crazy’.😎 Same here. We have our own share of nutcase politicians to match her, plus a governor (and I use the term loosely in his case) who cannot accept responsibility and cannot spread blame fast enough.

I have no clue what that would look like. I can tell you my dear departed Aunt Hilda could shoot you such a look when you pissed her off, it would go through you like a laser. Maybe that is what she meant?

Yay! I feel better now. Seriously, this shmendrick has quite the shtick going, with all her meshuggeneh conspiracies. I hope the rest of Congress comes to what little sense they have left and schleps her out of there, kicks her tuches down the Capitol steps and right back under whatever fungus-infested rock she crawled out of in the first place.

HA, that would be assuming the republican party has any sense. She'll probably run for president in 2024 and they will believe every word she says and vote for her.

FINALLY... Mitch McConnell denounces the "loony lies" spread by Greene and calls her conspiracy theories a cancer on the GOP. Reported by the New York Times.
