A former U.S. Capitol Police sergeant tore into Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.) for posting a new image of herself arriving at the complex with a military-style gun.
Finding this outrageous and dangerous is an understatement, wrote former Sgt. Aquilino Gonell, who left the police force after injuries and trauma sustained during the Jan. 6, 2021, attack. He called out Greenes delusional obsession with political violence.
Greene, a close ally of House Speaker Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.), is a conspiracy theorist who last year spoke at a white nationalist event. The new image ― a promo shot for her MTG Battleground podcast ― was shared by Patriot Takes, which monitors right-wing media.
She is no longer flirting with violence, Gonell wrote as he retweeted the image. She is encouraging it
again.

(17,787 posts)she claimed to have felt "threatened" by "aggressive" Rep. Jamaal Bowman.
I find her aggressively threatening, and utterly repulsive.

(8,851 posts)an incredibly fragile ego..she whines the press is mean, they don't like her, they take her vomitus bilge out of context..and then there's her one sided rivalry with nemesis AOC..Marge attempts to portray AOC as a middle school mean girl when, in fact, Marge wants to be AOC when she grows up...her jealously is loud and palpable...
Marge is stupid and dangerous because she appeals to the monsters that walk among us, and yes she is repulsive but so are Boebert/Gaetz/Jordan/Gosar...their constituents must be so proud...

(102,808 posts)Every day. Pluto goes forward again this fall, until then bad shit will come flying at us in every form. But then, remember earlier this year when it started look like things might go in our favor? That comes back for some time to come, and I expect the great comeuppance to be a long and rewarding period for democracy worldwide.
That's the timing I'm getting the feel for.
