Despite her obvious desire to be taken seriously as a political figure, George Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene just can’t help displaying the factors that make her woefully unqualified.
Yesterday, she was at it again. This time she took aim at global warming.
“There is no climate crisis, it’s a fabricated scam that lines the pockets of politicians and their business partners with the zero carbon hoax and carbon credit scams,” Greene whined on X (formerly Twitter).
“Yes the climate changes,” she continued. “It’s been changing ever since God created the Earth and will continue to change.
“But man is not causing the Earth to heat up nor will be able to cause it to cool. Shame on the climate cultists using the tragedy in Hawaii to sell their agenda.”
That human activity is having an impact on the global climate is accepted by every major scientific organization in the field and most of the world’s governments. June 2023 was the warmest since records began in 1850. In fact, the whole year—2023—is similarly shaping up to be the warmest, beating records set only in 2020 and 2016.
Just this week, a study concluded that residents in some parts of California were seeing a dip in life expectancy because of all the wildfire smoke they’re now breathing.
There are questions over the real-world benefits of carbon credit schemes, which some believe corporations use to green-wash their credentials. However, the science behind global warming is unequivocal.
This is not, however, the first time Greene has claimed it’s all a hoax. In June 2022, appearing on a podcast with her now-boyfriend, Brian Glenn, Greene claimed, “We have already warmed one degree Celsius and do you know what has happened since then?”
“We have had more food grown since then, which feeds people. We are producing fossil fuels, that keeps people’s houses warm in the winter. That saves people’s lives, people die in the cold.
“This Earth warming and carbon is actually healthy for us.”

Dr. Greene, Ph.D., has spoken.
Greene seems blissfully unaware that fossil fuels will run out if we continue to use them.
Greene’s tweet prompted plenty of eye-rolls online.
Who had Marge is a climate scientist on their bingo card?

I had Jewish space laser expert, and conspiracy theorist.
The climate REALLY changed when god flooded the earth and drowned every man, woman and child.

Oh wait that didn't really happen either.
Sure. Science was hard for you I see. I’m not going to believe anyone talk about Science that spells Petri dishes Peach tree dishes Marge. pic.twitter.com/X4FrGzRKEU

“Trans cult”
When not trying to educate folk about climate change, Greene returned to another of her pet subjects this week: The supposed evils of trans rights.
Responding to a poll relating to trans people participating in sports, Greene tweeted, “Two thirds of voters don’t want men playing in women’s sports.
“The American people are SICK and tired of the trans cult ruining women’s sports and corrupting our children. The numbers prove it.”
She also posted another bizarre video of herself working out and supposedly displaying “grace.”
“While jealous haters try to undermine and divide MAGA, I choose GRACE ✝️💪😎🇺🇸”

MTG is a dude.
Change my mind.

You just bursted the bubble of every MAGATROLL here! Watching her squat is driving them mad. FYI, MTG has an OF site just for the Log Cabin Queens—she will do tricks for you for campaign donations. Large donations.

I know! “Her” biceps are the clue.

If by dude, you mean not passable drag queen, I agree with you.

Don’t challenge her, she might take a picture of her ugly twat and post it and once seen, can’t be unseen.

Here’s an idea: we have Marge stay in a giant, human-sized “peach tree” dish, without any air-conditioning, during July and August 2024 in Houston, Dallas, Miami, Atlanta, Austin, or Phoenix. She can only pick one, or any parched landscape susceptible to wildfires, or a floodplane surrounded by potential mud-sliding hills, and it’ll be her own private terrarium. Let’s see if this dizzy excuse for a Congressperson claims there’s no climate change or climate emergency then!

I bet she’d go for it, K.

Georgia School District Canceled an Author’s Talks After He Said ‘Gay’

MTG must be so pleased with herself.

Hard to believe that the great state of Georgia, on the one hand, serves as a model of Republican-lead election integrity, while on the other hand a district of Georgia has elected wannabe-Kimberly Guilfoyle MT “get her outta here” Greene to the House of Representatives.
It seems climate change deniers, like the poor, will always be with us. The EU is at 22% of electricity from renewable resources, headed for 100% by 2050. Maybe the U.S. will be able to buy the technology from them.

Nothing graceful, endearing, or charming about her. She may be physically strong but no matter what she does to her face or puts on her back, she is a braying, shrill, totally butch, three toed sloth.
Fname Optional Lname
Who actually listens to her and walks away feeling that they have improved anything in their life? She has never grown out of the high school mentality where she was just pissed and bloated all the popular girls were getting attention. She has been throwing a teenage temper tantrum for 20 years.

If i had one chance to ask her one question.
Marge. What is wrong with you?

I don’t think anyone can deny, her stupid comments are entertaining AF.
It’s a complete car crash, but you can’t help gawking at what you’re reading.

Rather than talk about the “climate hoax”. She should address the fraud of her campaign managers fake charity that enabled him to pocket all but $10000 of $180000 in donations he got for “the people of East Palestine”. The right is awash in stupid, slimy scumbags!
