QAnon Rep. Gets A Brutal Education After Not Appearing To Realize How Public Schools Are Funded

Far-right Republican Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene seemed to forget U.S. tax dollars cover a majority of public school funding when she lambasted President Joe Biden's speech about education.

In his first joint address to Congress on Wednesday night, President Biden introduced the "American Families Plan." If passed, the plan would subsidize child care, offer paid family and medical leave and provide free universal preschool and two years of free community colleges for those who want it.


Greene slammed the proposal's education plan and hawked it as yet another conspiracy theory.

The Georgia Congresswoman—who was relieved of her committee assignments by the House of Representatives in response to her dissemination of false information and conspiracy theories and harassment of school shooting survivors—tweeted:

"Federally funded school from age 3 to 20 doesn't sound like education, it sounds like indoctrination. All at your expense. By force in the form of taxes."

Greene seemed to have forgotten local, state and federal taxes largely fund public education—which was something she touched on an hour before when she supported parents who were vehemently opposed to mask-wearing mandates in schools.

She said at the time:

"Taxes pay for the schools."

Yet, she conveniently forgot about the concept of public school funding when bashing Biden's plan—which would help decrease the costs of raising children; attending school and seeking higher education; and acquiring health insurance for a vast majority of Americans.

Twitter was relentless in their mockery of Greene.











Class dismissed.

AG Pam Bondi's Brother Blames 'Rabid Partisans' After Getting Absolutely Walloped In DC Election

MAGA Republican President Donald Trump has often bragged about his overwhelming victory over Democratic Vice President Kamala Harris, claiming he won by a landslide. But while he did manage to finally win a popular vote in 2024, something he lost in 2016 and 2020, it was hardly a landslide.

About 90 million eligible, registered voters didn't bother to vote at all in 2024, while Trump garnered only ~77 million votes, VP Harris received about ~75 million—a difference of only ~2 million which is less than the population of Trump's hometown of Queens, New York City.

Kristi Noem's Past Views On National Guard Come Back To Bite Her After She Backs Trump Amid LA Protests

California Governor Gavin Newsom called out the hypocrisy of Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem after sharing a clip from last year showing she'd once criticized the Biden administration for considering deploying the National Guard when Democrats suggested it as a response to Texas' immigration crackdown at the time.

That's noteworthy because Noem has made an about-face, defending President Donald Trump's decision to deploy the National Guard to Los Angeles amid ongoing protests in response to his administration's immigration raids by claiming he'd taken this drastic step "for the safety of this community ... to keep peace."
