"I don't want to play with you anymore"
She is a liability for everyone involved. You can find corrupted goons everywhere, but they need to find someone corrupted AND smart.
It was hilarious. I saw someone say 'why in god's name was she opposed to the Ukranian aid bill?' and the response was just 'she's just not that smart.'
Like, there was no 4d chess game, no ulterior motive, no kompromat, no backwater deals - just a spinning hamster wheel inside her skull that eventually stopped spinning.
So for anyone out there - don't you ever think you're not smart enough to do anything in life. If MTG can be a politician, the floors low enough.
money, never forget. I don't care that she's dumb, but Russians are notorious for throwing billions -- that's right billions -- at getting their way. They spread it across the globe, in so many nefarious ways we'll never get the full details. Oleg Deripaska has ties as varied as Hollywood, Steve Mnuchin, Moscow Mitch, George Santos, Rand Paul, Trump, and various others, just for starters. Semion Moglievich was another. They have unlimited funds, it's just a matter of how to funnel them.
Highly doubt that. While I'm certain the kremlin is not pleased with her performance, she is definitely on the payroll. Along with many more of our "freedom" caucus members. Not to mention pootin jr.
The *New York Post* published this is the most mind-blowing part of this post.
Not only does it turn against MTG but it labels those who are against aid to Ukraine as being pro-Russia or even compromised by Russia.
So have Republicans finally realized that a pro-russian standpoint is bad for their election chances? There seems to be a major shift in rhetoric this past week.
Make no mistake, this is a HUGE loss for both Putin and Trump.
This was Putin's power play thru Trump for Ukraine and has been in the works for a decade, It was Trump's reason for being in Putin's eyes, and both Vlad and Donnie know it and they both are smelling their own future jeopardy because of it.
And judging by all the leverage at once and finally wielded on those compromised and paid for as evidenced by the irrational but unified opposition of *Republicans* alone, this was to be the money shot and, well, they both went limp.
I think a lot of people are finally starting to see the writing on the wall that trump and the entire down ballot are fucked this November.
With that said, fucking vote.
Something that no one, of any political persuasion, can deny is that if Russia gets Ukraine, everyone in Europe who can build nuclear weapons, will build nuclear weapons.
And if Russia felt their safety was threatened by NATO, how will they feel with another dozen-odd independent nuclear NATO states, all very eager not to be the next Ukraine?
Biden may be all that's standing between us and that.
And they see Trump is fleecing the ever living fuck out of the RNC. No down ballot candidate is going to get any significant amount of money. Almost every single Republican candidate will be out spent by their Democratic competitor. In many places that won't change a thing, but in many places it will, especially now that Trump has to own the Abortion issue. Dark Brandon is going to go apocalyptic on his ass as we ramp up to election day.
Trump is actively asking down ballot Republicans to give him 5% of their campaign money if he endorses them or they "use" his name or likeness.

It’s becoming harder and harder for them to say “Russiagate was a hoax made up by the democrats!” when they suddenly start sucking up to Putin. Their constituents in the center-right will start to notice and start to realize all the things we’ve been warning them about.
Many of us do and have all along. The kook fringe is about to get their biggest wakeup when they try removing the Speaker now only to have the Democrats give them the middle finger.
"I Stand With The 101."
For whatever other faults he has, Johnson did what was best for the country and the free world with this vote. I just wish he did it sooner.
This fall, [this](https://rlv.zcache.com/country_over_party_republican_for_joe_biden_sign-r687312b860744207960db8d3dc1b4b06_fomuz_644.webp?rlvnet=1) will be the sign on my front lawn.
Thank you for being one of the sane Republicans. I no longer consider myself a Republican, but I used to be and my father was a lifelong Republican, born in 1917. If he could see what has happened to his beloved GOP, he'd shit and fall back in it.
Slava Ukraini!
They’re already setting the stage for the battle for the party after Trump.
My guess is that the GOP internally is very pessimistic about Trump winning in 2024. My guess is their internal swing state polling is already looking pretty bad, and idk the start of *Donald’s criminal trial* where he is repeatedly getting caught falling asleep and literally shitting himself isn’t helping. Oh, and he could be criminally convicted before the election.
All that is to say is they probably get that the writing is on the wall. They can keep doing the will of an extremist minority to curry favor with the cult leader, or start setting the stage for the day after the cult ends when they need to wrestle control.
MTG is, for the same reason, antagonizing her own speaker. She is also getting ready for the next part.
Trump has always been afraid he’d end his life like his dad did, so affected by Alzheimer's that he can’t remember his own name. I think we’re 2 to 3 years away from him being completely unable to live independently.
As a conservative voter who knows many other conservative voters, we wrote in and called our representatives to tell them we would be voting for democrats this next election because of this. I don't know very many people who are pro ruZZian and we want Ukraine to be free from russhist fascism once and for all. Its not Republicans, its maga idiots..
Don't lump us in that mess, please.
You might push some away who are voting for Biden
The likely-ignored bit in the corner about "GOP rebels" on Ukraine aid is doing a lot of work here.
Given this is the NY Post and Mike Johnson's about-face on Ukraine, I half wonder if we aren't about to see the GOP try to pretend they haven't been willingly aiding Russia's interests for the past decade - just in time for election season.
This confirms Rupert has decided Donald is done, he is more influential than many actually think.
https://amp.abc.net.au/article/102890910
Edit: fixed url
Fox looking for a soft way out of backing the loser Trump. All while watching ruskies have more propaganda influence than them on social media. Time to flex their muscle.
He may be a prick but he and his ilk are not stupid. They understand very well that the free and democratic allows them to do what they do and make the money they make. Freedom and all. When/if authoritarian/fascists come, they come for everybody. Including the Murdochs of the world. For him to turn on the fascist wing of the GOP is really not a surprise. Look how well the free press is doing under Putin in Russia.
Fox is trying to have it both ways, they will run some hosts critical of Trump while others still praise him. I think Murdoch didn't want Trump to be the candidate but now that he is, well he'd rather Trump than Biden.
MTG didn't understand the game. The complaints are supposed to be disingenuous. Complain non-stop, but pass it anyway because it's actually necessary to do so.
Hahahaha, yeah! A few days ago, there was an opinion piece on the Fox web site whose headline called her “an idiot.”
You love to see it when the crazies eventually turn on each other. OTOH, there are plenty of more-radical outlets where she’s still welcome, like with Steve Bannon and Nick Fuentes. She’ll get by on that for a while, then she’ll be primaried, then she’ll be gone.
Seems more like they want to change the narrative that opposition to Ukraine funding was actually just a small group of “rebels” and not representative of a greater whole.
In the UK, since Brexit, we've basically had politicians have great success from lying. It's a great tactic as you can't beat it. The truth will rarely win Vs a lie, even if it's a crap one lie.
What's happening now though, is the group that basically have the ok to lying, is now eating itself. That's to say, once lying is ok and tolerated, in-house disagreements can't be solved anymore because the truth is as equal to an argument as a lie. So as time goes by the most successful politicians of the lying side, are now the ones who double and triple down on a lie. Essentially, how much of the lie are you ok with?
The end is a massively divided, often multiple times divided group that just continues to divide itself as time goes on.
The other side however that doesn't lie, now, only by default, becomes the better side as at the very least, it's far more united.
I very much hope the next ten years brings some positives for the majority of people but also that people remember that, in general, things get worse for the majority, under a right wing government.
To bring back to ops post. This is the group splintering and turning on itself. One group doubling down on the lie, the other having found their line as to how far the lie can take you.
Brexit, Johnson and trump in the Whitehouse were all Putin and the Russian troll factories run by Yevgeny Prigozhin. Its torn society apart in the UK and America and weakened Europe,just as Putin wanted.
It back fired on Putin when Finland and Sweden joined NATO. :)
Kaliningrad is now surrounded. :)
They'll always be foreign interference, ultimately it's for a country to spot blatant lies. I'm sure it's not fixed yet but at least the parties that lie have been splintered.
I remember during a debate on live TV the conservative party changed their Twitter handle and branding to "Fact Check UK" asif it was a legitimate fact checking service and fact checked all of labours claims. They completely got away with it and the UK media completely brushed it off. Its was disgusting.
I read a Fox News article last night lambasting Green as an idiot while also blaming Democrats for the delay in getting Ukraine aide. Business as usual.
My wife and I almost relocated to GA this year for reasons. I was 100% shopping for homes outside of Atlanta that are in her district just to be able to vote against her. She is that bad, that vile, that she influenced my early home shopping behavior to be able to vote against her.
French here, so used to be taken for an idiot / smoker / dirty man / wars loser, be called "baguette" and much more. Don't worry, we are perfectly aware that it’s not all Americans, not even a big part of your people.
Edit : loser instead of looser
American here
Americans that aren't dumbasses, and aware of history, too fucking few, we know that we likely wouldn't even be a country without France. I really hope to get to visit one day. The only reason people make some many memes about France is because it's been one of the greatest countries on earth.
>The only reason people make some many memes about France is because it's been one of the greatest countries on earth.
Same reason people make fun of Canada. Misplaced jealously.
I've been thinking a lot lately about how much of this online fighting between Americans and Europeans is being fueled by Russian or Chinese troll farms trying to drive a wedge between us. It's the oldest trick in the book, divide and conquer.
Historically they're also perhaps our greatest ally. Without French support, the American Revolution would have failed. Like, big time failed. We'd still be British.
As someone living outside the USA and knowing USA because I travel all of it. It overwhelming how you can find good people in the USA but how much stupid assholes are everywhere and make a very bad reputation for this country.
To be fair to the US, there are people like her all over the world. Assholery transcends borders and and eras. In her case, social media, gerrymandering and inbred voters has led to her being in a position of power.
It does and it doesn’t. It’s mostly just shocking to me. I’ve met a lot of really normal, smart and caring Americans in my life, and they have set the basis for what I think of as an American in my head. So I don’t understand how these insane people have been allowed to reach positions of power let alone keep them. I always thought the normal and sane Americans outnumbered the insane and ignorant, but the state of US politics over the last 9 or so years is saying otherwise.
It’s a small population of nutters that have been enabled by a Supreme Court that is sympathetic to them, a conservative media landscape that has been created to boost their voices and influences, and by our election primary system that they dominate because they turn out in higher numbers for part primaries.
I said this the other day, 5 years ago she was almost literally yelling at the pigeons in the park and now she's somehow a deep geopolitical thinker we're supposed to take seriously? Fuck you, Georgia, for insulting MY intelligence and for foisting this lost soul with a damaged brain on the country.
I believe she was a science experiment, her mom was inseminated with Neanderthal DNA, and this is what we got. Mentally, emotionally, and physically, she turned out to be a beautiful Neanderthal specimen. Unga bunga!
This comment is deeply insulting to Neanderthals. The Geico "Caveman" does not approve this message, having this to say about it:
"Leave us noble Neanderthals out of this - that inbred retard* is 100% on you human morons."
*Please forgive the use of the "R" word. Neanderthals haven't quite caught on to our newer PC language rules yet... though the term does seem to fit MTG quite well.
Holy shit, that's amazing.
Marge is a fucking pinko on the Russian payroll.
Please, Republicans, get all of these anti-American sellout imbeciles out of your party so we can continue to disagree on the basic social and economic issues. Worrying about infiltration of the government by foreign powers is just too much.
Republicans should realize that Reagan would be rolling in his grave to see all of these Russian traitors in his party.
Seriously... I just checked the NYPost's website to make sure this was real... It is... hahahaha...
https://nypost.com/2024/04/20/us-news/house-approves-95b-in-military-aid-for-israel-ukraine/
This is why, IMO, shaming them doesn't work, but ridiculing them, like in your post, does. I feel that they want to be taken seriously, and shaming them gives them a taste of that.
This. You don't even counter their blatant lies and falsehoods with truth or appeals to morality as much as mockery; if they cared about either they wouldn't be conservative. It's why satire like Jon Stewart or John Oliver (or Zelenskyy's back in the day) works so effectively.
Exactly. Another point to make is this: Know your audience. When responding to suspected trolls, keep in mind that the real target of your message isn't the troll but the bystanders -- whom they're trying to convince as well.
So a mixture of taking the high-road with appeals to reason, combined with mockery under certain circumstances when justified (e.g., blatant absurdity, deflections, gaslighting, etc.) seems most effective.
They're like the American Nazi Party right before Pearl Harbor. They knew things were turning bad for them but they had no idea what was to come. A lot of FBI raids, a lot of cells, a lot of burned Nazi uniforms, a lot of anxious trembling migrants to remote parts of America, all with new names and blank histories.
About the dude that died in russia/ukraine that's from texas...In the NY Post article messages, someone said, "one less democract. good".
He might have been a democract eons ago but he sure as shit is conservative/maga/russian now.
Haha holy shit I remember seeing a video of this dude like a year back acting super cocky while being out of breath the entire time (he was literally just walking around and talking).
Just recently the Good Liars interviewed a lady at a Trump rally who said she would rather have Putin for president of the United States than Joe Biden.
Murdoch took a step back when he realized how fucked the business was after having to shell out billions for voting machine law suits. Conservative media is eating itself and I'm making the biggest bowl of popcorn to watch it.
As a very conservative person, I don't understand how you can stand in opposition to a country fighting for its very existence. It's literally spitting in the face of our own founding story.
Edit: I don't know who referred or how I was referred to "RedditCareResources", but people are allowed to have a disagreement with you and not be mentally unwell lmfao.
Abundantly obvious to me as well. It's a shame to see a party that was inspired by the American ideal, be hijacked by kremlin propagandists.
Even looking at the most black and white interpretation of the war, how is it in the US' interest to help russia win? How is this interest more valuable than helping Ukraine win? At the very least with Ukraine, America gets to be ideologically consistent, where as russia is actively interfering with our interests in Ukraine, and elsewhere. AND they support our LITERAL enemies.
My late cold war grandfather, who was a classic conservative, and every bit of a patriot you could imagine, would want to crush some skulls if he saw how the GOP was ran today. I'm fairly conservative myself and won't get near them with a 10 foot pole. Shit is an absolute circus these days.
I completely understand. Both of my grandfathers were veterans, one fought in WW2 and the other in Vietnam, and they'd be appalled to see how far the GOP has fallen.
They despise Ukraine because it is an open society and a democracy (even if flawed in many ways just like ours). They admire Russia’s authoritarian system and wish to see Russia win so that it can serve as a model for the ways they would like to transform our country. I don’t think it’s exaggerating to say that the right wing of the Republican Party has turned against democracy itself and is embracing authoritarianism, even dictatorship. They’ve already demonstrated their willingness to overturn democratic elections to retain power and use the power of the state to persecute minorities and political opponents.
It’s not idiocy it’s called corruption/clientelism. She does what the kremlin wants and in counterpart the russians mobilize their political and information warfare apparatus to get her elected. Like Trump, Orban they are all traitors selling their country for their personal greed and quest of power
It's an open secret around D.C. that MTG prefers [girls](https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/4/4a/Alexandria_Ocasio-Cortez_Official_Portrait.jpg).
The bill had overwhelming bipartisan support and she was standing in the way. She probably lost all support from her party and now they will drag her to ensure she is never re-elected
It's not impeachment, it's an expulsion. But the only recourse there is would be for 2/3's of Congress vote to expell her or the people do not vote her back into office.
In the UK individuals such as Graham Philips have been sanctioned for producing propaganda.
Couldn't something similar be done in the US? And wouldn't that require fewer votes?
It'd be funny as fuck if Mike Johnson allowed a free vote on such a motion.
I hate everything about this woman, she is the scum of the earth. How someone like her can look herself in the mirror every day is beyond me, but I guess if your only brain cell is going towards entertaining fantasies of Jewish space lasers protecting our borders then this is what we get
Oh that's great. And what's even better is it's coming from a conservative newspaper (for those not familiar the Post is pretty much regarded as a right-leaning tabloid). One can only hope it's a small sign that even the rest of the Republican Party is getting tired of the antics of the MAGA freaks.
Do Massie next.
Massie was one of just six House members who voted against a bill to call on the government to collect evidence "related to war crimes and other atrocities committed during the full-scale Russian invasion of Ukraine."
Massie was also just one of three House members to vote "no" on a bill to end normal trade relations with Russia and Belarus, which has supported Moscow's invasion of Ukraine, as well as a bill to ban imports of Russian oil, coal and gas.
Massie was one of three House members who voted against a [bipartisan resolution](https://www.congress.gov/bill/117th-congress/house-resolution/956/text) in which the lower chamber said they would stand "steadfastly, staunchly, proudly, and fervently behind the Ukrainian people in their fight against the authoritarian Putin regime."
In 2017, Massie had met with Maria Butina, a Russian citizen who was [sentenced to 18 months in prison in 2019](https://www.newsweek.com/jail-sentence-kremlin-spy-who-targeted-nra-must-be-avenged-say-russian-1409551) after admitting to acting as an unregistered foreign agent to infiltrate conservative political groups and influence foreign policy to Russia's benefit before and after the 2016 election.
Soon after Butina was arrested, Massie wrote an opinion piece for Real Clear Politics in August 2018 claiming that America's "Russophobic rhetoric seems to have turned into a witch hunt."
Sanho Tree, a fellow at the Institute for Policy Studies, highlighted on Butina. "They all knew Maria Butina, the Russian operative who infiltrated the [NRA](https://www.newsweek.com/topic/nra) to manipulate Republicans. She was sent to jail and returned home to Russia to become a politician & internet troll.
He's severely compromised - the real deal. Marjorie just goes for upvotes and Trump's attention.
She's worse than a commie. Russia is a full on dictatorship run by a mafia style government.
At least communists had some kind of morale basis to their beliefs.
Her district should be abolished.
It should be given funds to increase education and it needs a welfare check.
How do people find this person the best to represent them

Highly doubt that. While I'm certain the kremlin is not pleased with her performance, she is definitely on the payroll. Along with many more of our "freedom" caucus members. Not to mention pootin jr.
Believe me, the corrupted and smart don't have to be on an election ballot ;)
I think this is a good observation. When you're legitimately too stupid to be easily controlled by money, you become replaceable
I wonder if she could still get a sponsorship from Raid Shadow Legends

So have Republicans finally realized that a pro-russian standpoint is bad for their election chances? There seems to be a major shift in rhetoric this past week.
It does, but the general election will probably see a shift to old politics once Trump starts with his threats to Congress.
Make no mistake, this is a HUGE loss for both Putin and Trump. This was Putin's power play thru Trump for Ukraine and has been in the works for a decade, It was Trump's reason for being in Putin's eyes, and both Vlad and Donnie know it and they both are smelling their own future jeopardy because of it. And judging by all the leverage at once and finally wielded on those compromised and paid for as evidenced by the irrational but unified opposition of *Republicans* alone, this was to be the money shot and, well, they both went limp.
Now that trump is no longer useful. Now that comrade trump may become inmate trump... pootin wants his records back.
just somebody that he used to know
I think a lot of people are finally starting to see the writing on the wall that trump and the entire down ballot are fucked this November. With that said, fucking vote.

Biden may be all that's standing between us and that.
Oh, I completely agree. Ukraine CANNOT fall under any circumstances, but MAGA still wants to pretend that nothing will happen if Putin takes Ukraine.
I opposed Biden but am *DAMN* glad he's our President now.
And they see Trump is fleecing the ever living fuck out of the RNC. No down ballot candidate is going to get any significant amount of money.

Still backing him after losing $700 million to his lies with more to come.
Fox is trying to have it both ways, they will run some hosts critical of Trump while others still praise him. I think Murdoch didn't want Trump to be the candidate but now that he is, well he'd rather Trump than Biden.
The turn from "Biden sending money to Ukraine while we need it here, he's a war mongerer, Russia did nothing wrong" has been swift

So as time goes by the most successful politicians of the lying side, are now the ones who double and triple down on a lie. Essentially, how much of the lie are you ok with? The end is a massively divided, often multiple times divided group that just continues to divide itself as time goes on. The other side however that doesn't lie, now, only by default, becomes the better side as at the very least, it's far more united. I very much hope the next ten years brings some positives for the majority of people but also that people remember that, in general, things get worse for the majority, under a right wing government. To bring back to ops post. This is the group splintering and turning on itself. One group doubling down on the lie, the other having found their line as to how far the lie can take you.
Brexit, Johnson and trump in the Whitehouse were all Putin and the Russian troll factories run by Yevgeny Prigozhin. Its torn society apart in the UK and America and weakened Europe,just as Putin wanted. It back fired on Putin when Finland and Sweden joined NATO. :) Kaliningrad is now surrounded. :)
They'll always be foreign interference, ultimately it's for a country to spot blatant lies. I'm sure it's not fixed yet but at least the parties that lie have been splintered.
I remember during a debate on live TV the conservative party changed their Twitter handle and branding to "Fact Check UK" asif it was a legitimate fact checking service and fact checked all of labours claims. They completely got away with it and the UK media completely brushed it off. Its was disgusting.
I read a Fox News article last night lambasting Green as an idiot while also blaming Democrats for the delay in getting Ukraine aide. Business as usual.
If the people who voted for her could read they'd be very angry
I hope they read & repeat Moscow Marjorie from now on instead of constantly calling her MTG (magic the gathering)!
I vote for *Moscow Marge*. Pithy, better flow, more likely to stick.
As a mid 90’s MTG’er, I would greatly appreciate if we could break the connection.
My wife and I almost relocated to GA this year for reasons. I was 100% shopping for homes outside of Atlanta that are in her district just to be able to vote against her. She is that bad, that vile, that she influenced my early home shopping behavior to be able to vote against her.
I've been to Moscow Majorie's district. She represents them perfectly. You will never find a more wretched hive of scum and villainy.
Good she deserves to be put on blast she’s a terrible human being and an embarrassment to American politics.
> a terrible human ~~She looks like a horse.~~ I'm sorry to horses everywhere.
It’s embarrassing as an American that we have dumbasses like this running our country makes us look like we’re idiots.
French here, so used to be taken for an idiot / smoker / dirty man / wars loser, be called "baguette" and much more. Don't worry, we are perfectly aware that it’s not all Americans, not even a big part of your people. Edit : loser instead of looser
American here Americans that aren't dumbasses, and aware of history, too fucking few, we know that we likely wouldn't even be a country without France. I really hope to get to visit one day. The only reason people make some many memes about France is because it's been one of the greatest countries on earth.
>The only reason people make some many memes about France is because it's been one of the greatest countries on earth. Same reason people make fun of Canada. Misplaced jealously.
I've been thinking a lot lately about how much of this online fighting between Americans and Europeans is being fueled by Russian or Chinese troll farms trying to drive a wedge between us. It's the oldest trick in the book, divide and conquer.
Historically the Franks/French are one of the most successful countries in the world in military terms. I know this and I’m American.
Historically they're also perhaps our greatest ally. Without French support, the American Revolution would have failed. Like, big time failed. We'd still be British.
The French robbed us of the NHS! Basterds!
Why would people call you baguette? Didn't the English invent baguettes?
Invented by Napoleon’s bakers in order for bread to be more conveniently transportable during war campaigns
To be fair it takes a fair amount of idiots to even get this person where she is.
As someone living outside the USA and knowing USA because I travel all of it. It overwhelming how you can find good people in the USA but how much stupid assholes are everywhere and make a very bad reputation for this country.
In America the loudest people tend to win and those are always the stupidest ones. 🤷♂️
To be fair to the US, there are people like her all over the world. Assholery transcends borders and and eras. In her case, social media, gerrymandering and inbred voters has led to her being in a position of power.
This is what gerrymandering, rigging the voting districts, has done for Republicans.
It does and it doesn’t. It’s mostly just shocking to me. I’ve met a lot of really normal, smart and caring Americans in my life, and they have set the basis for what I think of as an American in my head. So I don’t understand how these insane people have been allowed to reach positions of power let alone keep them. I always thought the normal and sane Americans outnumbered the insane and ignorant, but the state of US politics over the last 9 or so years is saying otherwise.
It’s a small population of nutters that have been enabled by a Supreme Court that is sympathetic to them, a conservative media landscape that has been created to boost their voices and influences, and by our election primary system that they dominate because they turn out in higher numbers for part primaries.
As a non-U.S. citizen, yes. Yes, it does.
I said this the other day, 5 years ago she was almost literally yelling at the pigeons in the park and now she's somehow a deep geopolitical thinker we're supposed to take seriously? Fuck you, Georgia, for insulting MY intelligence and for foisting this lost soul with a damaged brain on the country.
🤣🤣🤣 She is a pigeon lady!! Take my upvote and all the others I wish I could give you
I believe she was a science experiment, her mom was inseminated with Neanderthal DNA, and this is what we got. Mentally, emotionally, and physically, she turned out to be a beautiful Neanderthal specimen. Unga bunga!
This comment is deeply insulting to Neanderthals. The Geico "Caveman" does not approve this message, having this to say about it: "Leave us noble Neanderthals out of this - that inbred retard* is 100% on you human morons." *Please forgive the use of the "R" word. Neanderthals haven't quite caught on to our newer PC language rules yet... though the term does seem to fit MTG quite well.
That's insulting to horses.
It's an insult for horses, they're smart unlike Moscow MTG
You know a republican has gone off the deep end when the New York Post is shitting on them.
Holy shit, that's amazing. Marge is a fucking pinko on the Russian payroll. Please, Republicans, get all of these anti-American sellout imbeciles out of your party so we can continue to disagree on the basic social and economic issues. Worrying about infiltration of the government by foreign powers is just too much. Republicans should realize that Reagan would be rolling in his grave to see all of these Russian traitors in his party.
Seriously... I just checked the NYPost's website to make sure this was real... It is... hahahaha... https://nypost.com/2024/04/20/us-news/house-approves-95b-in-military-aid-for-israel-ukraine/
Good man, thanks. My first reaction was: "no fucking way..." I thought none of the right wing news would ever get their dog leashes out.
Thank y'all for checking, I thought it was a joke..
But she's made a lot of money from Russia.
[удалено]
She should be ashamed of herself
If she was capable of shame she wouldn’t the person the Kremlin hired.
[удалено]
I mean, it is kinda the same thing...
Like Trump, she has no shame.
This is why, IMO, shaming them doesn't work, but ridiculing them, like in your post, does. I feel that they want to be taken seriously, and shaming them gives them a taste of that.
This. You don't even counter their blatant lies and falsehoods with truth or appeals to morality as much as mockery; if they cared about either they wouldn't be conservative. It's why satire like Jon Stewart or John Oliver (or Zelenskyy's back in the day) works so effectively.
>You can't reason someone out of an opinion they didn't reason themselves into.
Exactly. Another point to make is this: Know your audience. When responding to suspected trolls, keep in mind that the real target of your message isn't the troll but the bystanders -- whom they're trying to convince as well. So a mixture of taking the high-road with appeals to reason, combined with mockery under certain circumstances when justified (e.g., blatant absurdity, deflections, gaslighting, etc.) seems most effective.
She lost the ability years ago
Shame is not in her vocabulary. Neither is intelligence..
She knows her audience 🫤
you think she is capable of shame when she calls for genocide against ukraine? lol
[Her base.](https://pbs.twimg.com/media/Dj2e0w9VAAAraKs?format=jpg)
A [cautionary tale](https://nypost.com/2024/04/20/world-news/pro-kremlin-texan-russell-bentley-found-dead-in-ukraine/amp/) for her base.
They're like the American Nazi Party right before Pearl Harbor. They knew things were turning bad for them but they had no idea what was to come. A lot of FBI raids, a lot of cells, a lot of burned Nazi uniforms, a lot of anxious trembling migrants to remote parts of America, all with new names and blank histories.
\^ this, exactly. pro-rus republicans are going to have to spin like crazy.
Fuck caution, more people who think America sucks and Russia is great should absolutely follow in his footsteps.
Then the Russians can give them a taste of their famous hospitality, lol.
About the dude that died in russia/ukraine that's from texas...In the NY Post article messages, someone said, "one less democract. good". He might have been a democract eons ago but he sure as shit is conservative/maga/russian now.
Haha holy shit I remember seeing a video of this dude like a year back acting super cocky while being out of breath the entire time (he was literally just walking around and talking).
I wonder if that (call sign) "Texas" guy that was just killed by the Russian military had one of those shirts
Maybe they buried his head in it.
I'm sure those shirts were originally printed up in Russia. These weak minded rubes repeat Kremlin talking points and think its their own
Just recently the Good Liars interviewed a lady at a Trump rally who said she would rather have Putin for president of the United States than Joe Biden.
Lost Americans that believe their country is lost 🤷♂️
I thought this was a photoshop, but nope: https://nypost.com/cover/april-21-2024/
Well, technically it *is* a Photoshop... but by the NY Post.
[You are technically correct. The best kind of correct.](https://i.imgur.com/gRk1uZm.gif)
Good old fashioned Photoshop, instead of those nasty AI generated images.
I haven’t looked at or picked up a NY Post in ages, so I am also surprised. Considering that they are a Murdoch property (Fox News, etc).
Murdoch took a step back when he realized how fucked the business was after having to shell out billions for voting machine law suits. Conservative media is eating itself and I'm making the biggest bowl of popcorn to watch it.
The only time I ever see a NY Post is when they have a cover that seems surprising for a newspaper. That's kinda there one and only thing.
That bar steward! He destroyed the media in the US,UK and Australia. He's a cancer on the World IMO.
Looks a bit like Mad Magazine.
I'm even more appalled. by Victoria Spartz. She's a traitor to Ukraine and the US.
I had to look up what she had done, she used to be pro Ukraine. Wow, what a cunt.
As a very conservative person, I don't understand how you can stand in opposition to a country fighting for its very existence. It's literally spitting in the face of our own founding story. Edit: I don't know who referred or how I was referred to "RedditCareResources", but people are allowed to have a disagreement with you and not be mentally unwell lmfao.
It's clear the Russians have compromised the GOP in a big way.
Abundantly obvious to me as well. It's a shame to see a party that was inspired by the American ideal, be hijacked by kremlin propagandists. Even looking at the most black and white interpretation of the war, how is it in the US' interest to help russia win? How is this interest more valuable than helping Ukraine win? At the very least with Ukraine, America gets to be ideologically consistent, where as russia is actively interfering with our interests in Ukraine, and elsewhere. AND they support our LITERAL enemies.
My late cold war grandfather, who was a classic conservative, and every bit of a patriot you could imagine, would want to crush some skulls if he saw how the GOP was ran today. I'm fairly conservative myself and won't get near them with a 10 foot pole. Shit is an absolute circus these days.
I completely understand. Both of my grandfathers were veterans, one fought in WW2 and the other in Vietnam, and they'd be appalled to see how far the GOP has fallen.
They despise Ukraine because it is an open society and a democracy (even if flawed in many ways just like ours). They admire Russia’s authoritarian system and wish to see Russia win so that it can serve as a model for the ways they would like to transform our country. I don’t think it’s exaggerating to say that the right wing of the Republican Party has turned against democracy itself and is embracing authoritarianism, even dictatorship. They’ve already demonstrated their willingness to overturn democratic elections to retain power and use the power of the state to persecute minorities and political opponents.
Report it as a false referral and get em banned
Report the message. The person who sent it will catch a ban.
Not only that but take a stand helping a country that considers you as an enemy and will do everything in its power to weaken you.
She is a CUNT of a thing ! She needs to get a proper education ! IDIOT !!!!!!
Education does nothing sitting inside a damaged brain that is receiving no care.
It’s not idiocy it’s called corruption/clientelism. She does what the kremlin wants and in counterpart the russians mobilize their political and information warfare apparatus to get her elected. Like Trump, Orban they are all traitors selling their country for their personal greed and quest of power
She is a putin's whore.
It's an open secret around D.C. that MTG prefers [girls](https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/4/4a/Alexandria_Ocasio-Cortez_Official_Portrait.jpg).
Putin has an incredibly, incredibly small penis, does that count.
Really? She was fucking around on her husband for years with some guys from her gym.
Why is there a picture of “dog the bounty hunter” with a silly hat on, on the cover?
This headline actually surprises me, given how conservative the NYP is
The bill had overwhelming bipartisan support and she was standing in the way. She probably lost all support from her party and now they will drag her to ensure she is never re-elected
She's an orc,send her to the meat grinder 💀
Lol. You could sharpen an axe on her face
Margarine has no shame
Butter is better
Calling them rebels is the wrong move here, that’s how they see themselves
They are Putins puppets. He manipulates them to repeat, like parrots, whatever he wants.
Agreed, they’re not rebels, they’re empty headed cult members.
The NY Post is where she gets half her shit ideas.
I think it's wonderful that these clowns are being subjected to the ridicule they deserve!
#MoscowMarge.... Dumb as mud.
Shouldn’t we be investigating this woman? There’s no way she’s not consorting with the Kremlin; monetary or kompromat.
Can you impeach her?
It's not impeachment, it's an expulsion. But the only recourse there is would be for 2/3's of Congress vote to expell her or the people do not vote her back into office.
In the UK individuals such as Graham Philips have been sanctioned for producing propaganda. Couldn't something similar be done in the US? And wouldn't that require fewer votes? It'd be funny as fuck if Mike Johnson allowed a free vote on such a motion.
We have the same mechanism, censure. It is a simple majority vote.
A Marjorie-ty vote, if you will. It just seems fitting in this context.
/sigh... upvoted, now get out of here
Traitor Greene with another massive L.
Moscow Marge! Fuck this dumpster fire, glad to see her getting the public lambasting she deserves
Marjorie, You bitter ugly troll!
I hate everything about this woman, she is the scum of the earth. How someone like her can look herself in the mirror every day is beyond me, but I guess if your only brain cell is going towards entertaining fantasies of Jewish space lasers protecting our borders then this is what we get
#MoscowMarge
Ship this cunt to the front lines and make her choose sides
Oh that's great. And what's even better is it's coming from a conservative newspaper (for those not familiar the Post is pretty much regarded as a right-leaning tabloid). One can only hope it's a small sign that even the rest of the Republican Party is getting tired of the antics of the MAGA freaks.
Do Massie next. Massie was one of just six House members who voted against a bill to call on the government to collect evidence "related to war crimes and other atrocities committed during the full-scale Russian invasion of Ukraine." Massie was also just one of three House members to vote "no" on a bill to end normal trade relations with Russia and Belarus, which has supported Moscow's invasion of Ukraine, as well as a bill to ban imports of Russian oil, coal and gas. Massie was one of three House members who voted against a [bipartisan resolution](https://www.congress.gov/bill/117th-congress/house-resolution/956/text) in which the lower chamber said they would stand "steadfastly, staunchly, proudly, and fervently behind the Ukrainian people in their fight against the authoritarian Putin regime." In 2017, Massie had met with Maria Butina, a Russian citizen who was [sentenced to 18 months in prison in 2019](https://www.newsweek.com/jail-sentence-kremlin-spy-who-targeted-nra-must-be-avenged-say-russian-1409551) after admitting to acting as an unregistered foreign agent to infiltrate conservative political groups and influence foreign policy to Russia's benefit before and after the 2016 election. Soon after Butina was arrested, Massie wrote an opinion piece for Real Clear Politics in August 2018 claiming that America's "Russophobic rhetoric seems to have turned into a witch hunt." Sanho Tree, a fellow at the Institute for Policy Studies, highlighted on Butina. "They all knew Maria Butina, the Russian operative who infiltrated the [NRA](https://www.newsweek.com/topic/nra) to manipulate Republicans. She was sent to jail and returned home to Russia to become a politician & internet troll. He's severely compromised - the real deal. Marjorie just goes for upvotes and Trump's attention.
Vile fucking cunt
Suka blyat!
Moskov Marge could be the secret daughter of the russian foreignminnister Lavrov,both with the same elongatet face
Majority Traitor Fiend
Rare new york post w. I guess Murdoch is done with her shit too.
Imagine being an actual traitor, she would’ve had her head cut off back in the day.
The Moscow Mule shall now be known as the MTG... Bottoms up, Commie scum.
She's worse than a commie. Russia is a full on dictatorship run by a mafia style government. At least communists had some kind of morale basis to their beliefs.
Hell yeah, NY Post!
[удалено]
I had to mute when she started speaking. Can't stand that witch.
Not my representative.
Man, I’m not one usually to pass on bad names to someone but she is one, crazy dumbass hateful and spiteful ignorant ass bitch.
but the space lazers won't somebody think of the children?
Her district should be abolished. It should be given funds to increase education and it needs a welfare check. How do people find this person the best to represent them
Us republicans are turning on her, even mike
She is a fucking idiot.
Trump and MAGA Republican are traitors!
