Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.) 'We can't live forever'

During an interview with right-wing network “Real America’s Voice,” Greene claimed that the media and public health officials are over-hyping the number of people that have been hospitalized with COVID-19.

She further said that while the media “tries to tell us” that hospitals are “slam-packed with COVID,” that simply isn’t the case.

"Everybody needs to get back down to common sense and remember that, you know, we're human, we can't live forever, we're going to catch all kinds of diseases and illnesses and other viruses, and we get hurt sometimes,” she continued.

Greene is in the middle of a weeklong Twitter suspension after tweeting that the vaccines are “failing.” The Georgia Republican defended her stance that the Food and Drug Administration shouldn’t approve a vaccine, and that vaccines shouldn’t be mandated.

She should tell the Republicans to not go to the hospital if they are dying of Covid, since if we all got to die sometime, why pro-long the inevitable. Medicine is just hippy liberal witchcraft anyway - if God wants them to live, then they will live.

I checked...it is. I love how they deign to call themselves the "Real America" network. Because, you know, we're the real Americans, as opposed to those soyboys and cucks on the coasts.

As I said in another post tonight about the execrable Laura Ingraham and the POS small-business-tyrant she had on her show, these people are just asking for it. If they keep this up, they're going to find themselves on the bad end of another Bastille Day.

She does not believe the consistent promise of her scriptures promising ever after life.

I think what she means is we can not be humans forever; clearly many of her team are setting up for continued life as beasts, not humans.
