Quitter

I immediately lose respect for anyone who quits an elected office early to run for another office, thus triggering both expense and inconvenience for taxpayers. I was proud of Rep. Marjorie Taylor Green when she finally saw the light and stood up to Trump and his bullying. But, rather than continue the fight she simply quit her job, almost without notice. She signed up for an obligation to citizens of Georgia and now she is an expensive letdown.

Finally had enough

It’s not surprising that Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene would resign. Democrats spent years attracking her for pretty much anything and everything she did.

Poor MTG

So why be in Congress? Rep. Margaret Taylor Greene had a net worth of $700,000 before serving. Now, a few years later, she has more than $25 million made through her government position, and more so through her construction business and stocks. Thankfully, she is resigning right after locking in her congressional pension for life.

Epstein

It is a shame that a dead pedophile, human trafficker, sexual abuser Jeffrey Epstein dominates the news cycle when there are so many worldwide and domestic issues before the American people. Makes you wonder just what are our priorities.

It’s the Democrats

There sure seems to be an overwhelming number of Democrats who have suddenly become so incredibly concerned about the Epstein list, now that there is a Republican in power. It’s a real shame they weren’t so concerned when President Biden was running the show.

A new meaning

Heard a good one today. GOP: Guardians of Pedophiles.

Better off

Without lying to you, I’m much better off than when President Biden was in office, and so are you, whether you admit it or not.

Getting along

All I read in here is baseless. House divided? You must have missed Mayor Mamdani and President Trump’s meeting

Opposite of legal

“Insurrection“ needs to drink some coffee or use his dictionary. The seven Democrats did not call for military members to refuse to follow “legal“ orders, but “illegal“ orders, in compliance with the Uniform Code of Military Justice.

Try it

I guarantee you if you disobey an order, you’ll find yourself back on the streets with a dishonorable discharge in hand that will follow you forever. A fool listens to fools.

Illegal orders

Of course military members should refuse illegal orders. That goes without saying. But making a video and pointing it out and suggesting that the opposing party is complicit is a bridge too far.

Divisive figures

Advocates division? You must mean Barack Obama, a worthless president who had a chance to end racial division. He just made it worse, along with his entitled and ungrateful wife who still shrills on the internet, and the clueless and impaired Joe Biden, who opened the border and forced destructive woke culture upon us.
