Deporting MTG would require refunding NASA.

you all are smart in the comments sections – help me make what she said make sense. was she being sarcastic? trying to make a joke? or just again going off on a subject she is not particularly familiar with?

There’s your problem.
You’re assuming what she says has to make sense.

The generous read of her comments are that she tried to say they should have deported her accused killer, who was caught with stolen goods a year earlier and released.
Despite there being no evidence that undocumented people commit more crimes than citizens, but rather there is evidence to the contrary.

Please add the appropriate amount of wrath, outrage, and frustration at GOP nonsense.

Yeah, what she meant to say was pretty apparent. As was the fact that she in incapable of expressing a coherent thought. Of course, we already knew that. Just more evidence.

Actually, there is evidence regarding that. It doesn’t go well for the people that usually bring it up.
ETA:
The GOP doesn’t get the benefit of the doubt. EVER.

The GOP House already passed “Laken Riley Act” based on this case, perhaps calling ones Senator is a more pointed response than dunking on MTG.

Yes Marge, genius idea. If we deport all of the American citizens who might be murdered in the future then we could drastically reduce the murder rate in the U.S. Now go and find a place to deport them to, cause it’s a lot of people Marge. How about where they keep the Jewish space lasers?

This woman reminds me the question I was often asked: “Where are you from?” Spoiler, it’s not about where I live. It always feel wrong to me until I realized the real question, “Where are your parents come from?” The same with “Go back to your country.” I can get it as an immigrant but I’m pretty sure it would be the same even if I was born here. The underlining connotation is always “You’re not belong here,” unless you’re lily white. This karen gives me the same vibe, just 10 times as shitty. She talks like this country will function properly without a cheap, exploitable labor source. Like another poster said, maybe she belongs in space.

I really wish that such feckless stupidity was actively painful for the people who constantly exude it.

It’s striking me that so often the basic idea she’s trying to convey is itself so crazy and incoherent, it’s hard to separate that from her crazed delivery. It’s only when she’s unable to convey a straightforward idea that I’m realizing she’s not capable of coherent expression in general.

She’s like concentrated racist karen, with a big platform since she’s a congressperson…

The inverse of ‘nuke the whole thing from space’ really.
