QAnon Rep. Ripped For Claiming Infrastructure Bill Is Beginning Of 'Biden's Communization Of America'

QAnon Rep. Ripped For Claiming Infrastructure Bill Is Beginning Of 'Biden's Communization Of America'

The Republican pearl-clutching over Democratic President Joe Biden's infrastructure bill reached a new level of absurdity this week, when QAnon devotee and Georgia Republican Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene declared the legislation communist.

According to Greene, fixing the very roads and bridges and airports she herself uses regularly to shuttle between Georgia and Washington is the opening act of Biden's supposed "communization of America."


How exactly do bridge repairs equal communism? Who even knows, Greene included, since she offered no explanation for her objections to the bill.

Greene's accusation came via a newly released ad in which she attacks everyone from Biden to Democratic Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez with enough hysterical mistruths to last the rest of her term.

See the ad below.

In the ad, Greene lashed out at her Republican colleagues as well as Democrats for siding with the bill.

"Nineteen cowardly Senate Republicans joined Chuck Schumer and the Senate Democrats to pass a so-called infrastructure bill that's really the first step in Biden's communization of America."

It's a patently absurd assertion, and not only because the United States is the most right-wing developed country on Earth. The bill's provisions, which address repairs to bridges, roads, airports, railways and utility systems have nothing to do with communism and everything to do with, you know, basic safety and keeping the economy moving and whatnot.

Who exactly Greene and her ilk expect to take care of these things if not the government is unclear. Of course, the bill does include provisions that address climate change, God forbid--no true Republican would ever stand for such Stalinistic tyranny!

Speaking of climate change, Greene went on to characterize the infrastructure bill as a shot in the arm to what she called "AOC's pro-China Green New Deal," a wildly inaccurate characterization of Ocasio-Cortez's proposals. She then claimed the bill offers "amnesty to illegals" and "destroys American energy independence," both of which are total fabrications.

On Twitter, Greene's ludicrous ad went over like a lead balloon.











Biden's "communization of America" passed the Senate 69-30, and must now pass the House, where Democrats hold an eight-seat majority.

TikToker Hilariously Identifies Exact Brand And Shade Of Eyeliner J.D. Vance Wears In Resurfaced Video

Casey, an eagle-eyed TikToker who posts videos under the username @mamasissiesays, had social media users buzzing in a resurfaced video from last year investigating whether Vice President JD Vance actually wears eyeliner. At the very end of the video, Casey even shared that she believes she found the exact shade he prefers.

Casey posted the video amid intense rumors about Vance's eyeliner use. An investigation by Slate implied that Vance’s long eyelashes and hooded eyelids likely create some conveniently placed shadows. His wife, Usha Vance, confirmed to Puck News that his look was “all natural,” and admitted that she's "always been jealous of those lashes.”

Single MAGA Women Complain That D.C.'s Conservative Dating Scene Lacks 'Masculine' Men—And We're Cackling

Social media users pounced with jokes after MAGA women spoke to the Washington Post and the New York Times about the lack of "masculine" men in Washington, D.C., which is hilarious for a party pretty much obsessed with the way "real men" act.

The notion that masculinity is being attacked–namely by the left wing–is a popular one among Republicans such as Missouri Senator Josh Hawley, who once accused "the Left" of hurting "the future of the American man" and went on to claim the "deconstruction of America begins with and depends on the deconstruction of American men."
