I am almost giddy with laughter this morning watching the deliciousness of the GOP eating each other alive! The QTrumplicans versus the moderate old school Repubs. Each side holding part of the wishbone to see which one has the larger piece when they come apart. And it will culminate with a Win Win Win for the rest of us as they become irrelevant! He he he

Well she said ‘sorry.’ So - that erases everything that happened before, I guess. 😡 When I was student teaching a student was consistently have a side conversation. I would ask him to stop, he would say "sorry", and go right back to talking. I called him out again, he said "sorry", I said, "not good enough, stop talking", "but I said I was sorry". He seemed genuinely confused. I surmised that in his white middle class LDS family that was the rule, you were forgiven if you said you were sorry. I read what she said today and she tried to claim that what she said wasn’t any worse than what the mainstream media has done for five years. (MSM called for shooting Pelosi? I missed that). Then she did that thing I really really hate- threw her Christian faith in there. ( Christians forgive everyone, you only have to ask, apparently). I checked, Jesus would like us to keep Him out of this shit.

I have since had it explained to me that you have to truly reflect and repent for what you did deep down in your soul. In other words recognize that you are a freaking whackjob douche who is saying totally out of line crap and that is wrong of you to do so. Then take steps to correct the wrongs you have wrought on others. Something she is clearly incapable of doing. Anyone with the common sense God gave a rock knows she is lying through her teeth.

All you "harsh critjcs" who are not forgiving her -> are you ignoring that she also said something like those things I said don't represent who I am. I have not said them since I became a member of congress She does have me a bit confused though. Who is she claiming her own words are representing? It is not as if we have to go back a decade to find out exactly who and what she is.

It is not as if we have to go back a decade to find out exactly who and what she is. So in other words you have no values or morals of your own you parrot back whatever gets you elected? You are an empty void in desperate need of external validation just like the leader you idolize. Your values change depending on which way the wind is blowing. I don't understand how her argument works at all. Clearly I am not her target audience.

It is not as if we have to go back a decade to find out exactly who and what she is. Maybe she has Multiple Personality Disorder. Her Congressional personality is a Christian victim of the Democrats and the media that is unaware of having anything other than mainstream Republican thoughts. The other personality is a complete wack job Qanon conspiracy crazy that thinks Jew lasers started wildfires as part of a Rothchild plot. And more. That personality was elected and has immediately morphed into the first one in the last 24 hours. Simple.

ok, so I have a question. I'll admit I am a little ignorant about this detail of how Congress works, and the post before mine echoes that. if she doesn't have any committee positions, does she do anything except review (ha, I kid) and vote on things? I honestly don't know.

She already said that if they do this it frees her up to build up her social media imprint and get more likes and followers. Oh and of course to raise more money. She is Trump 2.0.

And King is complaining that McCarthy took action against him for his racist language, but did nothing against Greene. He's right.

I wish the media would stop giving her air time. She does not deserve to be the story of the month. Did they learn nothing from giving Trump all that free air time?

I'm Jewish and I happen to have a space laser. One shot, that's all I want. Just to knock her off her traitor bitchy soap box and see if her mean girl helmet hair cracks on impact.

if I were to scream racist shit at my employees, I would not expect to EVER be forgiven.
ever.
oh, and on top of it, she hasn't actually apologized. she just recognizes (according to her) she was wrong.

Greene is consigned to powerless troll status. as is Trump. they will likely fade into (mostly) obscurity.
after all, they can't really do shit. and the powerless badmouths end up in the spam file.

One thing especially that Greene said to Congress really pissed me off - that she was ‘led to believe’ about QAnon and Sandy Hook.
No, no, no. You are a grown ass woman, and grown ass woman ought to have the sense to know that any asshole can write whatever bullshit they want on the internet. Any grown ass woman ought to know the difference between drunk uncle writings and actual journalism. Any grown woman ought to know to check several different journalistic sources to see if they are all reporting a similar story in order to check the veracity.
Claiming you were ‘led to believe’ makes you sound ignorant, gullible and subject to believe literally anything put in front of you. Not a good look for an adult, let alone an adult who is supposed to be representing a whole voting district.

No. Greene was not led to believe. Own it. If she was smart enough to get elected to Congress, then you are smart enough to research for yourself these claims and look for multiple sources to prove if true or false. Or, there must be a very low intelligence bar to get elected to Congress today. Greene is living proof of that as is her leader, donald trump, proof even unqualified idiots can be president.
