ATLANTA — A Channel 2 Action News investigation has found that Georgia Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene and her husband have two active homestead exemptions, which is against Georgia law.

A homestead exemption is a big tax break any Georgia homeowner is entitled to for their primary residence. It is against the law to file for more than one.

But Channel 2 investigative reporter Justin Gray pulled records showing that the Greenes are getting the tax break on two different homes in two different counties.

In a statement, Greene’s office told Gray to mind his own business and called it a “pathetic smear” when he asked them about the homestead exemptions.

5. Surprise, Surprise, Surprise

What a pile of stinkin’ shit. Do other Georgians of any stripe or affiliation realize her underpaying her taxes means she’s cheating them, and they are subsidizing her?

If not, another instance of voting against their economic interests to own the libs.

When oh when will they learn who really has their teeth in them?

Repukes are very close to the point of expecting -- and getting -- a slap on the wrist for all illegal things they have done and continue to do. Maybe not even a slap on the wrist.

14. 4 stories about this ignoramus and her hoods

on DU this week. She ran screaming after AOC. Last year, she was trying to bully AOC. One of her hoods said something to Representative Eric Swalwell about Mr. Swalwell wearing a mask, and one of her hoods told aa reporter to mind his own business.

Real class. I imagine that mtg pees on the floors of the House when no one is looking and flings turds at the walls.

About her harassing the kids from Marjorie Stoneman Douglas High School, either. She’s got a habit of stalking and harassing people.
