QAnon Rep. Ripped After Referring to Herself as 'the Face of the American People'

QAnon Rep. Ripped After Referring to Herself as 'the Face of the American People'

Even before her swearing-in to the House of Representatives earlier this year, far-right congresswoman and prominent conspiracy theorist Marjorie Taylor Greene of Georgia had achieved national infamy.

Greene was among the first sympathizers of QAnon elected to Congress. The QAnon conspiracy web hinges on the belief that former President Donald Trump was sent by God to expose a covert network of satanic cannibal pedophiles secretly controlling the United States government.


In 2017, before her election, Greene uploaded a video to social media praising the QAnon movement, saying, "there's a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to take this global cabal of Satan-worshiping pedophiles out, and I think we have the President to do it."

She'd been in Congress less than a month before she was stripped of her committee assignments, following an onslaught of videos and social media posts, in which the Congresswoman claimed school shootings were secretly coordinated by top Democrats to weaken public support for the Second Amendment and in which she expressed support for the execution of Democratic House Speaker Nancy Pelosi.

Greene has continued to embrace extremism since the censure. She's suggested shooting volunteer liaisons going door-to-door with information on lifesaving COVID-19 vaccines. She's said the only way to regain "freedom" is through "the price of blood." She's fully supported the characterization of Democratic Congresswoman Ilhan Omar of Minnesota—one of the first Muslim women elected to Congress—as a suicide bomber.

And yet, Greene continues to warn that she and other far-right members of Congress aren't the "fringe" of the GOP, but its base.

Greene repeated that talking point yet again in an interview with white nationalist Steve Bannon, but this time Greene broadened the sentiment to apply to all Americans.

Watch below.

Greene said:

"I'm happy to be the face of the American people, and I'm happy to continue to come up to Washington, D.C. and tell this town and the people here exactly how real people feel."

"Real people" felt Greene wasn't representative of them at all.






They had some idea of who Greene could represent though.



It won't be until next November that the people of Georgia's 14th District will decide if they want Greene to continue representing them in Congress.

It's already scary to witness a younger person go through a life-changing medical diagnosis, but it's especially jarring to see a medical professional, who presumably knows best about how to care for themselves, go through the same.

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.

Kid Rock Dragged After Offering Massive Discount To His MAGA Festival Due To Abysmal Ticket Sales

Musician Kid Rock has hitched his wagon to president Donald Trump for quite some time now, and it seems he too is in the "find out" stage of that particularly exercise in FAFO.

It seems that when the president you form your entire personality around craters to a catastrophic approval rating even for him, your ship starts to sink too.

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."
