MTG Says She’s Sick Of Being In Congress: ‘I Don’t Want To Have Anything To Do With Politics!’

Poor Marjorie Taylor Greene! The Republican congresswoman from Georgia is pouting because she got elected to Congress and now claims she doesn’t want to have anything to do with politics.

Appearing on Steve Bannon’s podcast, “War Room: Pandemic,” Greene lamented what she said was her fellow Republicans in the House’s refusal to obstruct everything President Joe Biden does:

“The stupid Republicans that just won’t push the line and won’t cross the line and won’t go far enough, because they’re scared! Because somebody might stand up and challenge them, or someone’s going to write a bad news story, or simply whatever it may be!”

Greene even went so far as to accuse Republicans of being the problem the country isn’t going the way she wants it to, i.e. to the extreme right and eager to to install Donald Trump as dictator for life:

“It’s not the Democrats that are screwing you, it’s our own party. And that is what happened, just like you said, Steve, after the Tea Party wave back in 2009 and 2010, when we took over and things that were supposed to be better, the Republican Party turned around and failed us!”

Those failures, Greene continued, are why she ran for Congress in the first place, but now, she complained, “I don’t want to have anything to do with politics!”

Here’s some free advice for Ms. Greene: If you’re so disillusioned with the way things are in Congress, you should refuse to run for reelection next year and completely remove yourself from the political realm. That means no speeches, no podcast or TV appearances, and no seeking the limelight.

Just like her political hero, the failed, one-term former president, Greene cannot live without attention being paid to her at all times. She’s a malignant narcissist and a pathological liar. And since we know how Republicans love liars and megalomaniacs, they’ll probably make her their presidential nominee in 2024.

Lauren Boebert Issues A Press Release Saying She Plans To ‘IMEACH’ Joe Biden

Is Rep. Lauren Boebert (R-CO) the dumbest member of Congress. If she isn’t, then she’s at least a close second place to her buddy Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA), who spent Friday attacking Democrats on the steps of the Capitol before Rep. Debbie Dingell (D-MI) told her:

“Try being a Christian! And try treating your colleagues decently!”

And now we have Boebert issuing a press release to the media in which she called for the removal of President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris, announcing she would file an article of impeachment against them.

Problem is, in the press release, in BIG BOLD letters, impeach is spelled “IMEACH.”

In case you’re wondering, the rest of the release was also absurd:

“Joe Biden willfully abandoned his duty as President of the United States and violated his constitutional oath to ‘take care that the laws be faithfully executed’ by failing to ensure the national security of the United States and its citizens. Joe Biden and Kamala Harris handed over billions of dollars of American-made weapons to the very scum of the earth that we spent $2 trillion fighting. The Biden regime is not being held accountable. There have been no resignations, no indictments, no investigations, no congressional oversight, no outcry from the mainstream media, and no apologies—so I’m stepping up to hold Biden and Harris accountable by filing articles of impeachment for giving aid and comfort to America’s enemies and colluding with the Taliban.”

However, Boebert’s claptrap about articles of impeachment was overshadowed by her failure to proofread her press release before she shared it with the world.

Twitter quickly gave Lauren a lesson in mockery:

Marjorie Taylor Greene Just Took The First Step To Running For President In 2024

In a sign that she may seek the 2024 Republican presidential nomination if failed, one-term, twice-impeached former President Donald Trump doesn’t run, Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) will appear later this month at the Iowa State Fair, which is virtually a prerequisite for any candidate seeking the White House.

Jennifer Jacobs of Bloomberg reports:

“Marjorie Taylor Greene, the Republican congresswoman from Georgia known for espousing debunked conspiracy theories, plans to appear this month at the Iowa State Fair, according to people familiar with her plans. The gathering is a traditional platform for White House aspirants.

“It’s not yet clear whether Greene will speak at the event on Aug. 19 or just attend it. The Des Moines Register this year isn’t planning to organize a Soap Box, which politicians in the past have used to raise their profiles for a national campaign.”

On Tuesday, Greene attacked two of her House colleagues for daring to call for a continuation of the eviction moratorium which was first put into place when the COVID pandemic hit in the United States.

According to Greene, Reps. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) and Cori Bush (D-MO) had been protesting on the steps of the Capitol and turned it “into a homeless camp.”

Today, Greene took to Twitter and blatantly lied that the COVID-19 vaccine had caused pregnant women to have miscarriages, but provided absolutely no proof of her specious claim:

Greene is also fervently loyal to Trump and travels the country with accused sex trafficker Matt Gaetz (R-FL) in a pathetic effort to overturn the 2020 election which Trump lost to President Joe Biden, who also received the most votes in U.S. history.

If indeed Greene runs for the GOP nomination, she could actually win. The party has devolved into that level of insanity and idiocy. But if she does become the Republican presidential nominee, she’ll likely lose by a bigger margin than Trump did.

Lauren Boebert Says She’s Like Moses Because She’s Fighting Communism For God

According to Rep. Lauren Boebert (R-CO), she’s a lot like Moses from the Bible because God has given her “perseverance” over communism.

Speaking Sunday at the Turning Point USA Student Action Summit (a.k.a the Trump/Hitler Youth Brigade), Boebert said proof of God’s blessing is the fact that her restaurant, Shooters Grill, is still open:

“I put my faith and trust in God and I said if I commit my actions to the Lord, my plans will be successful. And now Shooters Grill has been open for eight years.”

Oh, and Boebert also proudly declared that despite her endless self-promotion, what she does isn’t the least bit about her or her massive ego:

“And this has never been about me. This is about liberty, this is about freedom, the American dream. This is about you. And that’s why this movement is not slowing down. And that right there is where boldness becomes perseverance.”

Is it the same “movement” that helped failed, one-term, twice-impeached former President Donald Trump lose by over 7 million votes? If so, the so-called “movement” may want to rethink its place in the political world.

The reason she is able to persevere in Congress, Boebert told attendees, is because God is involved in every decision she makes:

“When I have a bold idea, I am able to persevere because that idea is usually bigger than me. And I know if it’s bigger than me, God has to be involved!”

When was the last time Boebert had a bold idea other than shooting off her mouth and proving her own massive ignorance and bigotry? And no idea of hers will ever be big because it came from her incredibly small brain.

That’s when she made the comparison to Moses, which should have been enough to at least get a loud rumble of angry thunder from the heavens:

“Right after God said that to Moses, he said, why are you crying out to me, tell the people [to] go forward with what is in your hand

“So I’m telling you all now, be bold, persevere, and go forward with what is in your hand right now.”

What did Boebert have in her hand when she said that? A microphone, her favorite weapon of self-aggrandizement and grifting. She’s a typical Republican: In it for herself, and to hell with everyone else.

Before she left the stage, the Colorado congresswoman let the crowd know that her similarities to Moses have allowed her to “take on” Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) and Cuban communists.

It’s a wonder Lauren didn’t slip and fall on some of that bullshit she left standing knee high on the stage from her verbal diarrhea.

Here’s the video:

Lauren Boebert Terrifies Her Fellow Republicans By Calling For An End To All Federal Benefits

Rep. Lauren Boebert (R-CO) may have cost Republicans any chance of winning the 2022 midterm elections, and she did it by saying out loud what many in the GOP have been dreaming about for decades.

Boebert decided she wanted to make a point about the federal government offering to help Americans, so she went full-tilt and said conservatives want to eliminate all federal benefits, telling attendees at the Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC):

“We’re here to tell government: ‘We don’t want your benefits. We don’t want your welfare. Don’t come to us with your Fauci ouchie. Leave us the hell alone!'”

The very idea of cutting Medicare and Social Security is considered to be the the proverbial “third rail” of American politics and has consistently proven to be political poison, especially for Republicans.

It’s especially ironic that Boebert would rail against welfare since she loves to brag that she was helped by federal and state programs:

Now that she’s getting her salary and benefits courtesy of American taxpayers, however, Ms. Boebert wants to leave the neediest among us high and dry. In other words, she’s a typical conservative: A hypocrite.

HuffPost notes that in recent years Republicans have chosen to shower the rich and big corporations with corporate welfare:

“Boebert’s party has no problem cranking up benefits for the wealthy. Under the Trump administration’s tax cut — pitched as a boon to the middle class — 60% of the benefits went to the richest 20% of Americans, with the largest cuts as a share of income going to the top 5%. Corporate taxes were slashed 40%. 

“As for the Paycheck Protection Program during Donald Trump’s administration, most of the aid went to bigger companies, with just 5% of recipients scarfing up more than half of the $525 billion that went out the door.”

Boebert’s remarks were met with harsh reaction on social media:

Let’s see if Lauren Boebert actually believes the bullshit she peddles. Let’s see her return her congressional salary and benefits to the U.S. Treasury. Willing to put your money where your big mouth is, Lauren?
