to read the names provided by the Epstein survivors on the House Floor. Because we all know Trump is never going to release all the names, especially his.

(12,412 posts)Also, think shes serious about ACA subsidies and covering more people. While the latter may be due to her family needing coverage more than anything, Ill take any support that gets us closer to universal coverage.
Not gonna vote for her even as local animal control, but Ill support her on important issues that few if any trumpsters care about.

Both failed.
Now THERE is a great voting history!
Reminds me of when I supported George McGovern and when Nixon left in shame, I pulled out my McGovern pin and wore it with another custom pin that said TOLD YOU SO!

(3,833 posts)But I'll be 81 in a couple of weeks so I am authorized to be cynical.
I think she's getting ready to run for Senate from Georgia. One of the current senators from Georgia -- Jon Ossoff, Democrat -- came in second to the Republican candidate in the 2020 general election then won by one percentage point in the runoff. I suspect Greene thinks she can beat Ossoff without Trump's aid in 2026.

(952 posts)The more exposure of who Trump is in with the better. The same with exposing the DOGE lies and the foreign based MAGA influencer accounts.

(2,301 posts)have had all the documents and everything else the confiscated from Epstein's house and sex resorts for months and months.
I seriously doubt that it all hasn't been censored beyond belief already. Or will be as redacted as Mueller's presentation. Remember that?

(800 posts)I'm not sure I can ever get over the Jewish space lasers and gazpacho police, not to mention the tantric sex guru and insider trading, but if she were to do as you suggest I might be able to grudgingly respect her, like I do with Liz Cheney.

(4,746 posts)For any kind thoughts. She was ruthless with her hatred for the system when she came into office. Shes made millions on the backs of the people. No thank you!

(6,480 posts)highly questionable, and she likely would risk a flurry of expensive and time-consuming defamation lawsuits.

(21,162 posts)And, I suspect the survivors would verify her list and also be her guests in the House.

(3,496 posts)Shes still MAGA.
Shes still devoted to Trump.
Shes still a liar.
She can be neither believed nor trusted.
Joinfortmill
(21,162 posts)And, regarding believing her if she does read the names of the perpetrators, it's the survivors we'd be believing.

Abstractartist
(446 posts)In my opinion, I believe all who think she has good intentions are sadly mistaken. She says she is resigning ok maybe so, but she plans it to be the date she that she is eligible for congressional pension 🤔. I believe she is an arrogant, racist, MAGAt that wants nothing to do with anyone without white skin . She will not sail away, she will be back to f with the democrats, and everyone else besides herself.

(447 posts)Hardly much of a motivation for somebody whos a multimillionaire already. Contrary to what I seem to read all over the place here, members of Congress do not draw a pension equal to their salary. Its a calculation based on years of service and their base pay which she cant begin collecting until shes 62.

(21,900 posts)It would be stupid to resign before your pension kicks in. It's logical and smart.

(22,177 posts)Start at the top. (TSF's first then go from there.) They (TSF's cult) will try to getn her, i'm sure of that.
Jilly_in_VA
(14,371 posts)I kinda still do, but I have mad respect for her on one thing---she has her feet firmly anchored on the Constitution. MTG may be pretty crazy, but she's a populist and she also knows the folks she represents...at least I think she does. So if she decides she's going to read the names of Epstein survivors or those on the List, more power to her. If she thinks she's going to run for VP, well, she could be this generation's Sarah Palin. I don't think she'll run for Senator, at least she said she wasn't planning to, or governor either. It's hard to tell what's in that bleach blond head. Only time will tell, but we have a couple of months to find out. It could conceivably happen the day before she's scheduled to leave.
J_William_Ryan
(3,496 posts)And we should continue to think that way about Cheney.
Cheney is in full support of the fascist Trump agenda; Cheney believes in the Trump message, she just doesnt like the messenger.
Greene is the same a dishonest Republican; just as reprehensible, just as wrong.
Joinfortmill
(21,162 posts)Your description of her and her reading the names of the perpetrators on the floor of the House.
This seems personal to her for reasons we don't yet know or may never know.
