Georgia Republican Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene found one of her X posts garnering attention, but not for the reason she intended.

On Sunday, Greene posted a photo of dinner with wine for two on the edge of a patio firepit by a backyard pool.

But it wasn’t the poolside dining with an unidentified companion that drew people's interest—it was Greene's caption.

MTG wrote:

"Home is where I reset."
"Going back to work tomorrow."
"Accountability coming."

While congressional accountability would be welcome, it isn't something people associate with a QAnon conspiracy theory peddling Republican Representative repeatedly implicated in the January 6, 2021 insurrection.

And they let Greene know.




Some referred to Greene's previous congressional acts.





Some even commented on her meal.



Greene is currently serving her second term for Georgia congressional district 14.

Her first term was marked by censure by her own party for antisemitic comments and spreading QAnon conspiracy theories. Then House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy removed Greene from all committee assignments after repeated incidents.

In her second term, days after Democratic President Joe Biden's inauguration, Greene filed articles of impeachment alleging abuse of power. She recently filed a request for censure against Michigan Palestinian American Democratic Representative Rashida Tlaib, but the GOP controlled House failed to support Greene's retaliatory efforts.

Greene now spars with her own party almost as often as she incites disputes with Democrats.

In June 2023, the far-right Representative was expelled from the conservative House Freedom Caucus over comments she made about Colorado GOP Representative Lauren Boebert as part of an ongoing conflict.

At the end of October, Vermont Democratic Representative Becca Balint filed a motion to again censure Greene citing her "record of antisemitic, anti-LGBTQ, xenophobic and racist rhetoric and conspiracy theories..." and her "vile and hateful behavior."

Sandra Lee, known as "Dr. Pimple Popper" on Lifetime, is well-known for her bedside manner, medical knowledge and ability to share her knowledge in an accessible way, and, of course, her unique approach to dermatological care.

Rob Schneider Dragged For Criticizing Elizabeth Banks' 'Dangerous Rhetoric' After She Called Out White Female Trump Voters

After actor and filmmaker Elizabeth Banks—who played Effie Trinket in The Hunger Games—called out white women who voted for President Donald Trump, MAGA actor Rob Schneider lashed out against what he referred to as her "dangerous rhetoric."

Those who've read the book and seen the film adaptation of The Hunger Games know that Trinket—known for joyfully announcing, "Happy Hunger Games and the odds may be ever in your favor!"—is a mistress of propaganda for a hostile government that forces teenagers to fight to the death every year to intimidate critics and keep society's poorest and most vulnerable in line. Trinket eventually embraces the rebellion.

Trump's Border Czar Ripped For Hypocrisy After Telling Pope Leo To 'Stay Out Of Politics'

President Donald Trump's border czar Tom Homan was called out for hypocrisy after telling Pope Leo XIV to "stay out of politics" after he clashed with Trump over the widely unpopular war in Iran.

Last week, Pope Leo criticized the war and called on the world "to reject war, especially a war which many people have said is an unjust war, which is continuing to escalate and is not resolving anything."
