I’m so ambivalent about MTG. I sometimes think she’s the AOC of the right. I think I was wrong.

She was just interviewed by the slightly less sloppy due to recent clean shaveness, Steve Bannon.

It’s live. So I have no link but this convinced me she’s got a little bit more, if not a lot more substance than AOC.

She talked about 2 things she’s done to be actually effective as a legislator stemming from the fact that she actually reads the bills. I guess she’s using the time she would have otherwise spent after being kicked off committees for no reason..

Apparently- she’s been calling for roll call votes, instead of voice votes so constituents can know how their individual congressmen voted on bills. I think Good. The second thing she’s been doing is calling for an end to the practice of “block voting” wherein groups of bills are placed together and HR Votes on all at one time. She (rightfuly) thinks this is ridiculous. Reps are forced to vote yes on shite they otherwise disagree with, to pass the isolated bill they want to see pass. Because there is no line item veto there can never be a check on it.

Then, she went on a tirade about some children’s museum in DC teaching crt based on crt shite on its website. She contacted another R adn said if you vote for this Im gonna raise all kinds of hell and your voters will get pissed. The children’s museum took their shite off their website. Bill passed funding it. So MTG checked website and CRT put back on.

She then went full HAM on Bannon. She gave the phone # of the museum (big deal) and told everyone to call. Then she gave out the cell phone number of Crystal, Museum Lady. Bannon looked like he was about to barf.

I’m not sure how I feel about the cell # -
BUT - her point about the Bill was valid. HR passed it bc the museum took the CRTShit down. But bc the “bill is like a contract” (her words and she’s right) bc there was no language limiting CRTShit- the museum wasn’t prohibited from promoting 1716 or whatever that stupid shite is on its website and teaching to kids at taxpayer expense.

Crystal is on our payroll. But maybe MTG should have just given out her email or something

Regardless. To the point of my OP- MTG is not AOC. AOC poses for photos. MTG is actually affecting the legislative process towards the will of her constituents by doing shite. Not taking photo ops where she cries in parking lots.

She literally posts videos of her workouts. If she’s the face of the R party, be prepared to lose even more suburban women.

MTG is the real deal. Because she uses logic she is being portrayed right wing. She isn't.

Yeah the logic of comparing the murder of millions of Jews to mask-wearing and vaccines.

I spent 5 yrs listening to Nazi / Hitler comparisons, and being compared to one myself.

Just stop

Not quite sure what that has to do with the lunacy of her comparing vaccines and masks to the Holocaust.

I'm neither attacking nor defending MTG, but she isn't the right's AOC.

She definitely speaks off the cuff and should think more before she speaks, but unlike AOC, MTG has some amount of gray matter between her ears.

Just because you automatically bleed from the rectum if someone questions the pandemic doesn't mean her analogy (however indelicate) wasn't spot on.

You have liberal filth falling over themselves to buy lanyards where they can wear their vax card around their neck like pit passes at a NASCAR race.

The fact that you see no problem comparing vaccines to the murder of millions of Jews proves my point. Say goodbye to the suburban women vote with that grotesque viewpoint.

Whatever your opinion of MTG, populist pushback — no matter how scattershot — is the best outcome we can hope for in the strictures of the ruling political structure. The biggest con perpetuated by this UniParty® dog & pony show is the preposterous notion that if we would only send the right slate of electors to the Potomac Cesspool, the Republic can be saved.

It is an absurd fantasy. Washington can no more be reformed than a malignant cancer.

If Liberty is to continue in this once great nation, it will be in some form of subsidiary, nullification and even secession movements at the state level. The current crisis continues until enough supporters of limited government come to this inescapable conclusion.

But she didn't. She compared the way nazis treated jews "before" the holocaust.

But you are more interested in false narratives than truth so I'm sure you don't care what the truth is.

The left has normalized Nazi/Hitler comparisons.

All the cool kids are doing it now.

You're a delicate little flower, aren't you?

You'll show 'em with your downvotes.

It's a simple comparison. Mask wearers are designated social targets by the Mask Covidians and Biden Democrats is analogous to Jews that wore the star of David that were social targets by the Nazi Party.

I'm surprised you can't see the analogy or is it you just hate using Nazi analogies like the Democrats do all the time?

I can see it. I can also see it’s a grotesque comparison. Keep going though. Let’s see you many more voters you nutballs can cause conservatives to lose.

First off, her analogy had nothing to do with the Holocaust, and everything to do with the treatment of the Jews BEFORE the Reich went off the rails.

Second, the penchant for going full Godwin, right out of the gate is why no one takes y'all seriously, particularly now that we've begun Year 6 of the Literally Hitler Chronicles from everyone left of Stalin himself.
