MARJORIE TAYLOR GREENE
Democrats' new Republican best friend.

"The Georgia congresswoman whom Democrats spent years portraying as the wild-eyed manifestation of the MAGA fringe is suddenly singing a new tune. Greene has broken with her party and Trump on a number of high-profile occasions this year, calling the situation in Gaza a "genocide" and criticizing Trump's bombing of Iran. In perhaps her most high-profile move, she was one of a few Republicans to sign the House discharge petition forcing a vote to release all the Epstein files. That, especially, is not going over well with the White House.

As if the trend-piece sirens weren't already blaring in newsrooms, Greene made another splash this week when she defended extending expiring Obamacare subsidies, the very issue over which Democrats are waging this shutdown. "When the tax credits expire this year my own adult children's insurance premiums for 2026 are going to DOUBLE," she wrote in a long post, "along with all the wonderful families and hard-working people in my district." She noted that "it is absolutely shameful, disgusting, and traitorous, that our laws and policies screw the American people so much that the government is shut down right now fighting over basic issues like this," and warned that Republicans had no plan to combat spiking health insurance premiums.Even after Chuck Schumer and Hakeem Jeffries made Greene the centerpiece of their talking points, Greene kept going. In a surreal episode, she went on CNN, in person, to trash her party to Wolf Blitzer. "You're a courageous politician, but more important, a loving mother," Blitzer told her. We did not see any of this coming."

Are MTG and her constituents the tip of the MAGA revolt spear? Are they the first since the Trump University enrollees to come out of their daze and figure out they've been had all along?

……much like Monty became "our @$$h@le " when he left Furd and ended up at Cal, MTG is now "our scumbag" because she is the only MAGA calling out Trump's fraud on Gaza, the cause of the government shut down, healthcare and the Epstein files.

As Trump is want to say, "everybody knows" that Trump is a fraud, his allies are just too deathly afraid to call him on it.

Have any of the main Democrat officials called out Trump on the genocide??

So if MTG is now your scumbag, aren't your people also scumbags?

The real frauds that have been exposed here are people like AOC and Bernie who refused to acknowledge the genocide while 2/3 of Democrats did, and a lot more than that in their districts.

You're trashing a politician whose positions, that go against those of her own party, and with which you probably don't disagree with, just because she's not from your tribe, while calling for unity??

Do you see how emotionally discombobulated that position is??

"Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.) accused Speaker Mike Johnson of "hypocrisy" for brushing off questions about a protective order issued against Rep. Cory Mills (R-Fla.).

Why it matters: It's the latest example of a pattern that has defined Greene's time in Congress: supporting leaders when it suits her political agenda and scorching them when it doesn't.

Greene leveled the hypocrisy jab at Johnson (R-La.) during an interview with us today.
She was referring to Johnson telling reporters yesterday that he would prefer to "talk about something serious" than address the protective order issued against Mills for allegedly threatening to release sexually explicit photos and videos of his ex-girlfriend.

Driving the news: Johnson "was Speaker and oversaw George Santos being expelled. Why isn't he doing anything about Cory Mills?" Greene told us.

"This is a serious matter, and it needs to be taken seriously."

Mills has previously denied the allegations.

The other side: Johnson didn't vote in favor of expelling former Rep. George Santos (R-N.Y.) from Congress and warned about the precedent it would set to expel a member before they're convicted of a crime."
Axios


There's a shutdown in D.C., clashes in Chicago, and economic worries bubbling up nationwide. But President Trump seems more focused on Gaza, Ukraine and Venezuela, Axios' Marc Caputo reports.

Voters reward winners and Trump is a winner," said one Trump adviser. "But I'd be lying if I said none of us wish he would talk a little more about the economy and things back home."

Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.) was more blunt. "It's a revolving door at the White House of foreign leaders when Americans are, you know, screaming from their lungs," MTG, who has increasingly grown estranged from Trump, told Axios' Kate Santaliz.

"Greene has taken positions in recent weeks that have puzzled Republicans, and irritated Trump.

She's said her party has "no plan" when it comes to health care.

She was one of four Republicans to sign a discharge petition to release the Epstein files, against Trump's wishes.

In an interview with Axios last month, she slammed Trump's second-term agenda as "America Last."

Greene fired back on X: "It's astonishing really how hard he's fighting to stop the Epstein files from coming out that he actually goes to this level."

*I think there is a fair chance that MTG may be more in touch with the feelings and concerns of MAGA's working class base than the Count of Mar a Lago is (aka Let Them Eat Cake Boy).

Marjorie Taylor Greene Blasts Trump for Fueling 'Threats' https://www.mediaite.com/media/news/marjorie-taylor-greene-blasts-trump-for-fueling-threats-against-her-the-man-i-supported-and-helped-get-elected/

"Aggressive rhetoric attacking me has historically led to death threats and multiple convictions of men who were radicalized by the same type rhetoric being directed at me right now," Greene wrote on X. "This time by the President of the United States. As a woman I take threats from men seriously."

MTG, and a growing number of working class MAGA, have finally arrived at the realization Johnny Rotten referenced at the last Sex Pistols concert (which was at Winterland)

This is going to destroy Trump, he's not going to pull this off. He's also been incredibly crass and dishonorable towards Massie with that comment about his wife, coming from a guy who has pretty poor family values to say the least.



Trump's approval is sinking among many groups who have supported him. The question is whether the Democrats can take advantage of that and field candidates other than Bateman or Cuomo types, not a given.

Young people hate tariffs! Invariably when polled, they will say that, while capitalism should be regulated, it shouldn't be stifled. If you don't believe me, the next time you see a young person walking down the street with their nose buried in their phone, ask them what they're looking at. Betcha anything it is some article discussing the finer points of economics.

Ya gotta love young people. I wish I still was one!

I _THINK_ she has been pretty consistent in her views. That area in Georgia is sorta a solidly small farmer kind of rural place (with some exurban white flight sprawl from Atlanta and Chattooga). Her neo-isolationism "fits" in a district that really hasn't benefited from neo-liberal free trade regimes and likely has a TON of individuals and small businesses on the exchange. Her background is not one of someone who built a career coming up through politics. I think she is of a mind to say "F it"

And my guess is that she doesn't "fit" with the Fox blonde bimbo look so found out that there is no cushy maga-media gig waiting for her after the end of her congressional career.
