Well. That's just MTG being...herself. She has to entertain the ugly and stupid end of her constituency on a regular basis. Not enough combined brain cells to realize what she says is pure and total crap, unworthy of reprinting or rebroadcasting on or in any form of media.

While I disagree with her stance on transgender issues, I think her wording in regards to a couple of individuals who are advocates for transgender rights is legitimate use of language that supports her position. She says plenty of stupid things, just not seeing this as one of them.

She says plenty of stupid things, just not seeing this as one of them. He is gay. I don't even know his policies on transgender people except he believes they deserve equality and that transgender athletes who have similar hormone levels with those they compete with, should be allowed to compete. That's it. That's from the first two pages of results I got from Bing. Nothing at all on bathrooms. ETA - I did not find anything on transgender bills at the federal level. If one existed, MTG would have more input on that than Pete because he's heading transportation. He's not a voting member of Congress or the Senate. I find her comment stupid and baiting.

I don't have a specific link to a specific article that references either of their views on transgender bathroom use. If they actually don't support allowing all people to use the bathroom labeled for use for the gender they identify as, she would be wrong in what she said, not stupid.

She's using him as bait because he's gay. Not because he's been actively working on a transgender agenda. Her audience is dumb enough they probably conflate the two regularly. In summary, she didn't pick him to talk about because he's been talking about transgenders and bathrooms. She brought him and it up because she needed a bogeyman for her talking point.

She is certainly an interesting individual who needs to be accurately called out on all she says.

I don’t remember what the occasion was but MTG gave a “shoutout” to her friends in Memphis on her FB page last year. Memphians hopped in the comments under her post, going in on her, telling her exactly how they felt, and how she knows damn well she ain’t got no friends in Memphis. It was epic and the comments were hilarious. I couldn’t believe she didn’t just delete the post. She deserved every bit of all the smoke she got.

Why is MTG still on Congress' payroll? She contributes nothing seeing she can no longer be on any congressional committees..

Some Georgians are trying to keep her from running again due to the 14th amendment, given how she enthusiastically supported the insurrectionists. They petitioned the court. Doubt it will work, but you never know.

It is my understanding from what MTG has said...she gets no salary...she has forfeited all of it in fines for not wearing a mask in the House when she decides to attend. I think that is hilarious....it's kind of like how to get out of a hole?...quit digging!

I'm more concerned about mayors in Ukraine being killed and male civilians being killed by Russian forces.

This one is just stupid: "Murkowski, Collins, and Romney are pro-pedophile," Greene tweeted. "They just voted for #KBJ." link

Well, if you flap your mouth without engaging your brain you can screw a lot of verbiage around without too much effort.

MGT heckled Raskin, a member of the J6 committee, as he encouraged House members to hold two Trump toadies in contempt of Congress for refusing to talk to the committee.
She shouted ‘Russian collusion’ and also referred to Ashli Babbit, the insurrectionist who was shot by a Capitol police officer when she broke through a window on J6.
No idea what the hill person meant by those comments.

No idea what the hill person meant by those comments. Yet I would bet anything that MGT is in full support of police officers being able to shoot people for "resisting arrest" because after all if they "hadn't done anything wrong" they wouldn't be shot and are "probably guilty of something anyhow". But since Ashley Babbit was a white conservative woman she was just an innocent tourist. Because we all know that tourists come into the Capitol through a smashed out window with an angry mob of people behind them.
