‘Legally carrying a firearm is not the same as brandishing a firearm,’ the former Georgia congresswoman wrote
Marjorie Taylor Greene has urged fellow MAGA supporters – and other Americans – to “take off their political blinders” over the death of protester Alex Pretti in Minneapolis, warning that they are being “incited into civil war.”
“I unapologetically believe in border security and deporting criminal illegal aliens and I support law enforcement,” Greene wrote on X Sunday, the day after the fatal shooting. “However, I also unapologetically support the 2nd amendment.
“Legally carrying a firearm is not the same as brandishing a firearm.”
Despite video showing that 37-year-old Pretti was filming federal officers but did not have a weapon drawn, the Trump administration has claimed he had tried to assassinate agents in an act of “domestic terrorism.”
I hate MTG.
I will also take any ally we can get at this point, as long as they vote what they speak
He was an observer not a protester ffs. Even subtle things like this shift the narrative.
this the same idiot who was calling for a ‘national divorce’ every other week? as if that wasn’t just a euphemism for civil war
National divorse is in no way a euphemism for civil war. There’s literally a constitutional way of states removing themselves from the Federal Government, that’s what national divorse means.
National divorse
constitutional way of states removing themselves from the Federal Government
that’s what national divorse means
Not from here, huh. Well, that’s alright. 1860 wasn’t the same everywhere around the world, of course.
What is the constitutional way of states removing themselves from the federal government?
A convention of states to amend the constitution; explicitly saying that specific state is no longer apart of the U.S., or inserting another legal route of succession into the constitution.
Much easier, and at the same time much more difficult than civil war.
My guess is she is a survivor of child sexual assault and the Epstein files broken her anti-empathy.
I actually agree with her on that. But yeah she says all sorts of other stupid hateful shit.
But whatever we need as many cracks in the MAGA cult logic as we can get. And they sure as hell won’t listen to me.
This time September 15-16, 2025: https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/americas/us-politics/marjorie-taylor-greene-divorce-leftists-charlie-kirk-b2827075.html
or are you thinking of another time.?
She’s attempting to stay relevant after quitting congress and currently has no role/job.
She’s going to run for Gov of GA. She needs to moderate to get that position.
Actually, she’s lined up a tv news role. She cashed in her government pension already. You’re otherwise right
Well, Marj is right on this one.
i never thought I would see the day where I didn’t outright cringe / disagree with MTG
Bitch that civil war was your jam until they threw you out of the club… you’re not wrong, just terrible
They didn’t even really throw her out until she got salty over not running for senate (which they told her ‘no’ cuz she’d have lost.)
Coming out of this hell for the USA could require help from anyone, and convincing MAGAs to come over to the good side might be accomplished more readily by someone who once was theirs, would that be her or not.
Doesn’t matter if the intent is to cause a civil war or not. We don’t have a choice.
They will keep ramping up until we fight back. May as well start it now before more lives are lost.
I know Trump thinks it’s going to keep there from being primaries, midterms, but he’s wrong.
It’s also not going to stop us from demanding the Epstein files.
On one hand it’s good to see anyone with a following stating truth to power, on the other hand it kinda pisses me off that only now after multiple needless deaths does this ass-hat who helped to set this situation up finally come to her senses.
I’ll take what can be had from her words, but she cannot be trusted and shares blame for the groundwork for the cult followers we see today. She’s also made a lot of money and is getting out after the fact.
I can’t help but read MTG as Magic the Gathering and it makes these headlines kinda sorta bearable.
It’d be better if she’d sacrifice herself from the graveyard already.
She is absolutely fucking right on that one!
They’re just waiting for someone to shoot back to send the army.
Fuck this bitch.
She’s the reason we’re in this fucking mess.
One of the many reasons. We started this slide with Reagan.
Say what you want but more obnoxious cunts turning sides can only be a good thing.
