McCarthy And His Allies Vow: We’ll Never Let You Go MTG

Speaker Kevin McCarthy’s (R-CA) and some other Republican lawmakers have begun openly embracing everyone’s favorite MAGA-aligned conspiracy theorist Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA), as the QAnon congresswomen has spent the last few weeks seemingly changing her tactical approach to politics. Greene has been trying very hard to lean into what looks like a new public image where she is no longer the famously far-right member of Congress but instead the number one ally to Speaker McCarthy and other moderate Republicans.

They are definitely boning. Hilarious subtext in the piece. Also it’s fun to watch MTG contort herself. It’s like Sarah Palin wearing glasses.

It is going to come down to diction, as opposed to catcalls…but that’s not all.

The words have to have some sort of logic, eloquence, empathy, insight…

That’s the most horrifying image I’ve ever seen. And the phrase “strategic on both ends”
has pretty much ruined my day. :unamused:

OT: Alarming story breaking. Wasn’t there a big question about the NY FBI being in-bed with Guliani and/or TFG?

Josh says they are on it! It would appear this guy had serious connections to Russia during the TFG reign of terror.

The kind of moderate rooting for the Insurrectionists?

I’d suppose it’ll go something like this:
MTG: Faces taste good!
Reactionaries: Yes, but not our faces.
MTG: Faces taste good!

I know republicans believe in small government. I guess they need small minds to achieve the results they desire.

I’ve often wondered what became of that. Guess it is just another “let’s move forward, not look back” .
