Video of GOP congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene calling for Nancy Pelosi's execution for "treason"

This woman is exhausting and frankly dangerous… I hope the Dems up in the 14th get their shit together and find an awesome candidate to win her seat. It will be an up hill slog, but I know not everyone there is a racist asshole, so I know that they can make some inroads if they do the work.

Some hope, though… It doesn’t seem to be up on the website, but the story on the local NPR station about her discussed her new chief aide, a guy who runs an extreme pro-gun group in GA. Which sounds bad, of course… but the thing about him is, that because of how he would attack Republicans as much as democrats, he was never really able to get any laws that he advocated for passed. That indicates that rather than actually get shit done in Washington, Greene is going to concentrating on trying to bully her way around the capitol, with both her own caucus and the majority party. She’s going to be incredibly ineffective in terms of passing legislation, so that’s not going to look good. The more moderate GOP might try and primary her in a couple of years.

Hell, it’s not just her base. This from HuffPo today:

Not even a majority of Americans approve of treating Muslims like humans. It says everything that the only less popular option has to do with burning more oil.

Edited because bad math.

Minor copy edit. “shod” is the past tense of shoe as a verb, not the past tense of shed. So unless you’re saying that the GOP almost wore trump as a pair of shoes, I think that you’re using the wrong word.

@beschizza it seems BB is spelling MTG’s name as “Majorie Taylor Green” as a matter of house style

I went and updated the BBS titles since that’s no longer something the Discourse WP plugin does.

And how well would our noble gop friends tolerate this level of vicious hate if AOC decided to go around to kids tormenting them and trying to terrorize them? The media seems to enjoy a good feeding frenzy and the gop delivers lunacy in all sizes and flavors. This idiot makes the old westboro baptist bunch look rational in comparison.

Yet another instance of these folks literally accusing others of what they themselves are guilty of.

Her existance in the House doesn’t say much for the people that voted for her.
Her district consists of the NW corner of Georgia. According to Wikipedia, the ethnicity is:

  • 84.38%[White
  • 11.58%[Hispanic
  • 9.54% Black
  • 1.05% Asian
  • 0.62% Native American
    and is overwhelmingly GOP:
    Donald Trump 73% – Joe Biden 25%

Yeah, I can see her going full Charlie on the House…

Always a joy for people like this to remind us that they’ve never actually read the constitution, and/or cared what it said.

Treason against the United States , shall consist only in levying War against them, or in adhering to their Enemies, giving them Aid and Comfort. No Person shall be convicted of Treason unless on the Testimony of two Witnesses to the same overt Act, or on Confession in open Court.

I’m curious what acts she thinks meet that definition… and if we let her stretch the definition far enough to include said acts, how many lawmakers and executives would be left if we applied it uniformly.
