Marjorie Taylor Greene appeared to double down on her Hurricane Helene conspiracy theory over the weekend, following up a baseless claim that “they” can control the weather with an assertion that such a scheme might involve lasers.

        Why is anyone listening to her, though? According to her followers, her vagina should be shooting out babies like an AK when it’s not making sandwiches.

          thanks for that image.

          in any case, her base listens to her because she spews out the same shit they do, and votes the way they want her to vote.

          I don’t listen to her- I pay attention, but I don’t go along with her bullshit, either. But if she could, she’d retconn all the stupid shit she’s said to try and get back into committees and stuff. The antidote to that is paying the fuck attention and keeping her bullshit front and center until she goes away.

        Yeah but this is partially because in the US congress, people don’t just take a water bottle and hit their neighbour over the head with it, no matter how much they ought to. It could fix a fair few issues. Or a briefcase in the japanese version I think? Was it a briefcase?

        Not so much. They won’t let her dumbass on a single committee, and that’s where the power lies. She’s never wrote, let alone passed, any legislation. All she gets to do is vote on the same stuff the everyone else does.

        If we gotta have a Republican in that seat, at least it’s a powerless dipshit.

          If we start ignoring heels, she can launder her reputation and get back into those committees.

        Actually no, she is just only harming herself. You can actually ignore her. You have the power!!

      I used to think that was the best approach too, but idiots like her, boebert, and trump need to live under a microscope before their crazy ideas are acted on.
