Thar she blows – the wackiest person ever in the House among
a few others again mouthing off in this article from RAW STORY with this headline:
“War is coming – Marjorie Taylor Greene tests new conspiracy theory
about violence”
The article below (formatted to fit the blog):
It has been just a few weeks since Rep. Marjorie Taylor
Greene (R-GA) begged the anti-war group Codepink for a photo with their activists, but she's now
beating the drum for war as she says she told them: “The war in Ukraine must
END! Today, I met brave Codepink activists who protested for peace in Bernie
Sanders’ office. He had 11 of them arrested! Peace & free speech shouldn’t
be a partisan issue. We don’t agree on most things, but we do agree Congress
should STOP fueling the war in Ukraine!
Her ominous comment explained: “Washington wants war with
Iran, which will pull in Turkey and Syria, maybe Saudis. Russia will likely
sell weapons to Iran and NK too. Maybe nukes as well. What will India do?
China? Both might play the long game and they will likely watch everyone blow
themselves to pieces and be weakened and then either country can make a play
for global dominance when it’s over.”
She then claimed this is why cable news is running non-stop
coverage of the Israel-Hamas war: “To physiologically prepare you to support
war, sending our troops, and paying for it all. It’s so you can stomach the
flag draped [sic] coffins coming home and donate to all the charities
supporting blown apart American soldiers. It's the idea that war feeds
patriotism and wins elections and war is good for the economy tactic.”
She then went on to attack Neocon power
trip funding of the Military-Industrial
Complex proclaiming: “Get ready. War is coming. I’ll fight against it the whole way and
inform you all every step of the way. But I’m going to need help.”
While Greene was sounding off about the U.S. aiding the war against Hamas, the conservative side of the Wall Street Journal blamed Iran for the attack, in a way that one reporter said was similar to the: “Destruction claims that Iraq had WMD's from Geo. W. Bush and Dick Cheney (remember that).”
Meanwhile, Donald Trump Jr., warned that Hamas is coming to the
United States and urged Americans to buy AR-15’s
quickly to defend their families.
My 2 Cents: I wonder how much crazier Taylor Greene and the cult Trump
types can get – a hell of lot more, I’m sure.
Will it matter at the ballot box in 2024? Probably not, at least not with cult-hooked and ill-informed MAGA types wild-eyed and glued to Trump himself … but we will have to wait and see.
However. I do have faith in the voters, but just to be sure, hang
on tight. It might get a lot nastier and downright uglier along the way – bet on it.
Thanks for stopping by.
