Matt Gaetz's New Nickname For MTG Just Royally Backfired As Critics Turned It Into A Diss

Gaetz tried to bestow a regal nickname on his fellow MAGA Rep.—and Twitter pounced.

Florida Republican Representative Matt Gaetz attempted to bestow a nickname upon his fellow Republican colleague Marjorie Taylor Greene of Georgia only for it to backfire.

Referring to her as the "MAGA Queen," Gaetz aimed to align Greene with the fervent Trump-supporting base.


His post came in response to a report that Greene had announced impeachment charges against a Biden administration official while he testified about the administration's response to migrant crossings along the U.S.-Mexico border.

You can see Gaetz's tweet below.

However, critics wasted no time in taking to Twitter to express their skepticism about the intended meaning behind the nickname, highlighting the contentious nature of both lawmakers.



Both Greene and Gaetz have been embroiled in controversy due to their unwavering support for former President Donald Trump and their baseless claims that he won the 2020 election.

This shared belief has earned them a reputation as far-right firebrands and conspiracy theorists, drawing criticism from across the political spectrum.

Interestingly, earlier this year, Greene publicly rebuffed Gaetz's praise when he congratulated her on securing committee assignments.

Greene had faced previous repercussions for her past inflammatory statements and promotion of conspiracy theories, leading to her removal from congressional panels two years ago. Gaetz, however, commended her for earning seats on the Homeland Security Committee and Oversight Committee.

In response, Greene refused to acknowledge Gaetz's accolades and redirected her gratitude towards House Speaker Kevin McCarthy for granting her the committee assignments she had requested. She also took the opportunity to criticize Gaetz for his role in the House speaker vote, further underscoring the discord between the two lawmakers.

Greene today announced she would officially introduce impeachment articles against President Joe Biden, charging he had abused his power by "endangering the security of the United States and thwarting the will of Congress" in response to migrant crossings.

Fox News host Emily Compagno was criticized after she praised Donald Trump's use of the "f-bomb" earlier this week before condemning Texas Democratic Representative Jasmine Crockett's use of the same word—on the same episode of her show, no less.

Trump made headlines this week after admonishing Israel and Iran for violating a ceasefire agreement he'd announced on Truth Social. Although he claimed the ceasefire had been "agreed upon," Iran fired at least six missile barrages at Israel after it was supposed to take effect.

State Department Slammed After Requiring Visa Applicants To Make All Social Media Posts Public For Vetting

The State Department is facing harsh criticism after it announced that anyone applying for an F, M, or J nonimmigrant visa will need to disclose all social media profiles from the last five years, requiring that all applicants set their posts to public so they can be properly vetted by its agents.

The agency said the new rules are part of a new screening process aimed at identifying individuals who may pose a threat to U.S. national security. According to the department, failure to comply could result in a denial, and consular officers have been instructed to flag signs of “hostility” toward the U.S.—though the criteria for such determinations remain vague.
