Dime store theologian and full-time crackpot Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) says she knows why there was a 4.8 magnitude earthquake felt across the East Coast on Friday and the reason there will be a solar eclipse next Monday.
According to Greene, it’s God telling us to repent.
Yep, she actually said that.
Taking to Twitter, Greene proudly declared, “God is sending America strong signs to tell us to repent. Earthquakes and eclipses and many more things to come. I pray that our country listens.”
As the note from other Twitter users rightly suggests, the eclipse is a regular phenomenon and earthquakes of varying intensity happen daily worldwide. There’s nothing unique, special, or spiritual about them. And they aren’t punishments from a deity.
Ironically, the epicenter of the earthquake felt in New York City was close to failed former president Donald Trump’s Bedminster golf club, which led to endless mockery by others on social media, who also took time to swat down Greene for her attempt to interpret the will of God.
