What if her state sent their national guard to his office in retaliation?


If MTG and a few members of the Georgia guard take a basket of peaches to the Guam Rep, I don't really see an issue with it.

Have you ever been to Guam? At any given moment in time there are probably as many mainland US citizens living there due to the various military bases.

The people of Guam shop at Wal-Mart and Macy's just like you do. While they may maintain their own historical customs they are very much "culturally" similar to just about any other remote US location.

Violation of data retention directives now that tweets from official accounts are now considered official government communication.

they weren't there representing a political side. they were simply representing Guam.


They don’t represent Guam if they wanted a meeting with her then call her and ask for a meeting. Don’t show up with 100 men at her office to confront her about her comments. The US military intimidating American citizens regardless of what they say should never be tolerated. This include the Tucker Carlson shenanigans with the military trying to intimidate him into shutting up as well.

March 15, a Military coup by Guam. Jan. 6th, a mostly peaceful protest by Trump supporters.

It may be a U.S. territory but it is still technically a foreign land. Do natives in Guam refer to themselves as Americans or as Chamorros? Do natives of Puerto Rico typically refer to themselves as Americans or Puerto Ricans?

So does every other country considered part of western civilization. We have exported American culture all over the world with fast food restaurants and chain department stores.

So do Cajuns (and Texans, for that matter). I wonder whether they too live in a “foreign land” in his eyes.

Q-Tard


I love this leftist take. Freshman representative expresses views that are debatable, flawed, incorrect, whathaveyou, yet inconsequential about an US island territory.

Pseudo-representative from the island territory marches troops, which are already staged around a militarized capital, as political props to her door to deliver a clear message.

Lefties: yeah, frick that bitch! That'll teach her to frick with Guam.

Had neither when I was stationed there. They were proud of the K-Mart though.

Way more islanders than run of the mill mainland citizens.

Still waiting for my island flipping hazard pay.

Will they be sought after and arrested like the US veterans are? How about shot on sight?

Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene is a member of Congress. NO. Maybe so. Yes. Or is it different because this was not in the holy shrine of Democracy? She is from the right side of politics so all is fair to war on her?

Have you ever been anywhere BESIDES Guam? I can go to McDonalds and Macy's in Kuala Lumpur where half the women are wearing burkas and the Muslim call to prayer is blaring at 70 decibels in the background... you think that's not a foreign land? At any given time, there are 20k more Americans living in and around Rammstein than Germans...

You're a smarter poster than this and I don't see why you want to continue trying to argue Guam is somehow akin to Provo, Utah. This is the same discussion that was had about Puerto Rico six months ago and it's really the same conclusion.
