Rep. Marjorie Taylor Green (R-GA) is a simple woman who likes simple things. She has conspiracy theories, seeing herself on camera, CrossFit, etc., not necessarily in that order.
In April, Green launched a podcast that combined his passion for intrigue and self-promotion. A recently posted photo has garnered attention as it seems to evoke the Capitol Riot on a big day for QAnon followers around the world.
Images show Mr. Greene being pulled into the Capitol with an AR-15 armed with a drum magazine.
The scenes behind her have a dystopian feel, as if they were taken near the end of the devastating battle in the Capitol.
In another allusion to violence, Green’s podcast is called “MTG Battlegrounds” (not to be confused with MTG Battlegrounds). Magic: The Gathering – Battlegrounds). A sword is also drawn in the logo.
The images Green chose for the podcast were probably meant to be iconic.
But conservatives like Green often use guns to market themselves. Retaining weapons, a leading killer of children, is clearly preferable to promoting support for a trickle-down economy, mass incarceration, and the destruction of social safety nets.
On the other hand, as the liberal Twitter account Patriot Takes pointed out, Mr. Green once said that she could have “won” the Capitol riot if she showed up armed. she also advocated the execution of Democrats And he has a history of harassing both them and school shooting survivors.
A photo of Green arriving at the Capitol dressed as an action movie character sparked both derision and disgust.
“Do they realize how ridiculous this is? If the 80s get a peek in 2023, Republicans will be stunned by their future,” said one Twitter user. I have written.
another commented“Talking horses are energized by Q and ivermectin.”
Several have suggested that Greene should or will be investigated for his role in the Capitol riot.last year she testified We are investigating the riots, but there is no evidence that she is under investigation for them.
In his testimony, Green denied participating in a conspiracy to overturn the election with violence.
“I do not support violence of any kind,” she said. “My words never mean violence.”
However, a picture is worth a thousand words.
