Far Right Crazies Turns On Taylor Or Greene, How Sweet It Is
Tis the season for joy and understanding, except in the case of Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, R-Ga., or is it Rep. Marjorie Taylor, as the bastion of white Christian America has gotten her final divorce decree after years of allegedly sleeping around.
I do not come to praise Greene or Taylor, but to join in the effort to bury her, politically. There’s fissures in the MAGA world and how sweet it is to see the ultra right wing crazies like Rep. Lauren Boebert, R-Colo. and Rep. Matt Gaetz, R-Fla., acting like a pack of starving wolves who have found a feast. Yes, Greene is on the defense as flesh is figuratively picked from her bones.
Don’t get me wrong. I have no compassion for her MAGA twin and fellow right wing Freedom Caucus member, crazy Boebert, the rabid gun lover who told a church congregation recently that Jesus could have prevented his crucifixion if he had some AR-15s and that Cain canceled Abel with a rock, and not with an AR-15.
Nor do I have any love for Gaetz, the Chuckie lookalike who is under federal investigation for sex trafficking and who feigned boredom and did not have the common courtesy to stand when Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky made a historic and dramatic appearance at the Capitol on Wednesday.
The hostility between such formerly tight political friends stems from Greene’s or Taylor’s push for Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy, R-Calif., to be the next speaker of the house when the Republicans become the majority party in January. Boebert, Gaetz and others think McCarthy is not right wing enough and so have come to devour Greene or Taylor and put a stop to McCarthy’s dreams of being the speaker.
Greene or Taylor has been vacationing this week in Costa Rica and missed personally voting on the $1.7 trillion government spending bill she dubbed the “omnimonster” which includes billions in military aid for Ukraine, something that Greene or Taylor has ridiculed as a waste of taxpayers money. She also did not attend a dramatic, historic address at the Capitol by Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky on Wednesday.
She filed a notice with the Clerk of the House of Representatives on Monday, claiming she couldn’t vote in person “due to the ongoing public health emergency.” I assume the health emergency demanded that she rest and recuperate in Costa Rica. Greene or Taylor voted by proxy against the spending bill, though she campaigned to end the COVID-19 era practice of proxy voting, because too many lawmakers failed to show because they could easily vote by proxy.
McCarthy has vowed to end proxy voting if he becomes Speaker in January so it’s a good thing that Greene or Taylor vacationed in the sun now, while record sub-freezing temperatures paralyzed the nation, and didn’t wait until after January.
Greene or Taylor was vacationing with her kids and her ex-husband, Perry Greene. Their divorce was finalized on Thursday. A Greene or Taylor spokesman said “For the past 15 years, Congresswoman Greene and her family always take a trip together at Christmas time. And this year was extra important.”
Greene or Taylor “not only did her job as Congresswoman, but she also did her most important job: being a Mom. She’s spending much-needed and much-deserved quality time with her children and their father.”
Talk about an amicable split up.
The divorce ended 29 years of marriage with Mr. Greene filing on grounds of “irreconcilable differences.” It was the second time the couple filed for divorce. The first time came in 2012 after Rep. Taylor or Greene allegedly had affairs with two men at a Crossfit she worked at, The Atlantic reported earlier this month.
The Daily Mail reported that Taylor or Greene, 49, had a “brazen” affair a decade ago with Craig Iveny, a “polyamorous tantric sex guru” and the manager at her gym. Taylor’s or Greene’s former boss at the CrossFit gym in Alpharetta, Ga., billionaire Jim Chambers, claimed to the Daily Mail she had the affairs when she worked for him in 2012.
None of it ever happened, insisted Taylor or Greene, who said in a July 27, 2022, opinion piece in the Washington Post that she is a “Christian nationalist” and that the Christian nationalism “movement” will solve school shootings and “sexual immorality” in America. But evidently not fooling around on your husband with a “polyamorous tantric sex guru.”
Greene called news reports of her alleged infidelities “ridiculous tabloid garbage spread by an avowed Communist” as part of the left’s “socialist agenda.” All, fairly routine reactions by the right wing against facts.
Taylor or Greene had been tight and even created two part harmony in 2002 when they chanted “Build the wall” in disrespect in opposition to President Joe Biden during his first State of the Union address. Taylor or Greene also had Boebert’s back when she defended Boebert for making anti-Muslim statements, targeting Rep. Ilhan Omar, D-Minn., a Muslim, who Boebert and other right wingers have sarcastically referred to as a “Jihad Squad” member.
Boebert was filmed telling supporters in Colorado she was getting in the elevator with a staffer when she saw a Capitol police officer running toward them “with fret all over his face” trying to stop the elevator door from closing.
“I look to my left and there she is: Ilhan Omar. And I said, ‘Well, she doesn’t have a backpack. We should be fine,’” Boebert said, sparking cheers. “I looked over and I said, ‘Oh look, the jihad squad decided to show up for work today.’”
But a simmering feud has surfaced after Taylor or Greene also was seriously miffed because Boebert had mocked the Georgian lawmaker’s claims that Jewish space lasers were responsible for California wildfires.
Taylor or Greene said that Boebert was engaged in “high school drama” and was looking for “sound bites.” Ouch.
Another “friend” of Taylor or Greene is Ali Alexander, the leader of the “Stop the Steal” group who helped to organize rallies before the Capitol attack on Jan. 6, 2021. Ali, once a close bud of Greene or Taylor called her a “trailer park hood-rat” for her attacks on Boebert.
It is hilarious to hear right wing Fox News host Mark Levin support Taylor or Greene by tearing into fellow right wingers who aren’t backing McCarthy for the speaker post. Levin came down on what he called, five hardcore conservatives, all “boneheads,” including Gaetz, who are trying to derail McCarthy’s goals.
Levin said that Gaetz is a “very clever debater” who is “utterly useless!” He labeled far-right Rep. Andy Biggs, R-Ariz., as a “phony conservative,” the ultimate insult and branded Rep. Bob Good, R-Va., a “moron.”
How sweet it is.
The cat fight continues and Taylor or Greene has her claws out. Green published a 25-part Twitter rant last Tuesday to criticize Republicans who oppose McCarthy’s bid to be Speaker of the House.
She compared her “friends” like Boebert to “the Never Trumpers [who] were Never Trump just [because] they didn’t like him, & that bad attitude cost our country so much.”
“Sabotaging the country for personal reasons is not brave or righteous, it’s selfish and foolish,” Taylor or Greene said sanctimoniously with more than a touch of hypocrisy.
Taylor or Greene is learning she just can’t trust anyone. Take Stew Peters, a far right conspiracist, media personality and bounty hunter who has spread COVID-19 misinformation. His radio show guest have included such bottom feeders as Rep. Paul Gosar, R-Ariz., former trump chief of staff Mark Meadows and L. Lin Wood, a trump lawyer who was formally sanctioned for his frivolous suit seeking to overturn trump’s election loss. Wood also is under investigation in Georgia for his efforts to nullify the 2020 presidential election. Wood also believes the Earth is flat and that “no planes” struck the Twin Towers or the Pentagon on Sept. 11, 2001.
Sounds like a kindred spirit with Greene or Taylor. But no more.
Peters slammed Taylor or Greene as a threat to national security and said that she will “burn in hell.”
As for Taylor’s or Greene’s personal life, Peters called her a “two-bit whore.” He made the comments on his bogus show that is sponsored by that other far right, conspiracist, the “Pillow Guy,” Mike Lindell.
Peters was a bounty hunter before becoming a radio host. He also was a speaker at the 2022 America First Political Action Conference, where he called for the murders of Dr. Anthony Fauci, director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases and the chief medical advisor to the president (lynched by hanging), and Vernon Jones, a Democrat turned Republican trumper (executed by electric chair).
Even fellow white nationalist and neo-Nazi Nick Fuentes had dumped Greene or Taylor after Greene or Taylor had disavowed Fuentes.
‘I’m over her!’ Fuentes let his sorry minions know on his radio show.
Fuentes and another anti-Semite Kanye West joined trump for dinner at his Mar-a-Lago recently. Trump said he didn’t know who Fuentes was and Taylor or Greene came to trump’s defense, and said she would no longer have anything to do with Fuentes.
Taylor or Greene and other right wingers had participated in March in events with Fuentes and his “America First” political action group. Greene was a speaker as Fuentes gushed in support of Russian’s invasion of Ukraine and the crowd responded with chants of “Putin!”
Taylor or Greene faced severe repercussions in Congress and Minority Leader McCarthy slapped her on the wrist with a wet noodle and said she’d been a very bad girl as he didn’t want to ruffle his far right base.
“There’s not anything that shows good character in her life,” Fuentes said after he was dissed by Greene or Taylor.
“She’s just weak. She’ll go and say something edgy to get attention, and then when the pressure comes, she buckles,” said the brilliant neo-Nazi.
“I’m over her,” he added. “It’s, like, and by the way, you know, she wants to be the face of Christian nationalism — like, she’s a divorced and she’s, like, actively an adulterer. How are you going to be the face of Christian nationalism when you’re a divorced woman girl boss. It doesn’t even make any sense. I’m so glad I don’t have to pretend to support that anymore.”
And a final Christmas note from trump, the self-professed clairvoyant man who makes Scrooge look like a philanthropist.
“Merry Christmas to EVERYONE, including the Radical Left Marxists that are trying to destroy our Country, the Federal Bureau of Investigation that is illegally coercing & paying Social and LameStream Media to push for a mentally disabled Democrat over the Brilliant, Clairvoyant, and USA LOVING Donald J. Trump,” the former president wrote on his Truth Social site.
