Marjorie Taylor Greene's Russian Propaganda Post Sparks Backlash

Marjorie Taylor Greene has triggered a backlash after posting Russian propaganda about the war in Ukraine.

Posting on X, formerly Twitter, the Georgia representative, who has consistently been critical of aid to Ukraine since the war began in February 2022, posted an article originally published by The Islander, a self-professed geopolitical analysis site, and reposted by the Strategic Culture Foundation (SCF) and wrote: "Anyone who votes to fund Ukraine is funding the most corrupt money scheme of any foreign war in our country's history.

"And forcing the American people to pay for it."

The article claimed Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky's closest associates bought two yachts worth a combined total of $75 million in October and speculated they may have used Western aid to do so.
But a community note added by other X users said: "Rep. Greene is reposting content from the Strategic Culture Foundation, a Russian state propaganda outlet sanctioned for spreading disinformation and interfering in U.S. elections," alongside links to information about the foundation.

Marjorie Taylor Greene ripped by Rep. Jim McGovern: "Aren't you late for a Klan meeting?"

Washington DC - Far-right Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene recently got into a feud with Democratic Rep. Jim McGovern, and to say he embarrassed her would be an understatement.

During a House Rules Committee hearing on Monday, McGovern criticized MTG for her resolution to impeach Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas and censure Rep. Ilhan Omar.

"The clowns are running the circus around here," McGovern argued. "We're wasting hours and hours of time this week on Marjorie Taylor Greene because what? She wants to impeach somebody.

"And don't even get me started on her absurd censure resolution of Congresswoman Omar that she introduced because she doesn't know how to use Google Translate."
Later that day, Greene shared a clip of McGovern's rant on social media and added a bizarre claim about how he conducts himself in the bathroom.

"Wow, this is coming from the same guy who is well known to lay his suit jacket on the actual bathroom floor while spending a lot of time in the stall of the first floor bathroom of the Capitol," she said in the post.

In response, McGovern clapped back, "No idea what you're talking about... what are you doing in the men's bathroom, aren't you late for a Klan meeting?"
