Turns Out QAnon Rep. Owns Stock In Three Vaccine Companies Despite Her Anti-Vax Rantings

She rails against the COVID-19 vaccines every chance she gets, but when it comes to her finances, Republican Representative and QAnon devotee Marjorie Taylor Greene is putting her money where her mouth isn't.

Recent financial disclosures revealed that Greene has invested her money in several manufacturers of the COVID-19 vaccines she so vehemently opposes—shares of Astra Zeneca, Johnson & Johnson and Pfizer making up a chunk of her investment portfolio. (Not Moderna though—conspiracy theorists have to draw the line somewhere!)


Greene has repeatedly used her platform as a member of Congress to call out so-called "Big Pharma" and spin anti-vaxx rhetoric—including claiming that the COVID-19 vaccine is the "mark of the beast," the symbol of allegiance to Satan described in the biblical Book of Revelation.

Guess she's fine with Satan when he's making her money!

Naturally, this bit of rank hypocrisy drew no shortage of ire online, including from Greene's 2022 Republican primary opponent Jennifer Strahan.


Strahan followed her poll with a second tweet shading Greene for her hypocrisy.

She wrote:

"For those of you wondering, the correct answer is D! Our current representative rails against the vaccine, but owns stock in 3 of the 4 major vaccine manufacturers."

Greene's likely Democratic challenger Holly McCormack called Greene out on Twitter too.

It's nice to see some Republicans and Democrats finally find common ground on something, even if that thing is their distaste for Marjorie Taylor Greene.

According to her disclosures, Greene's shares in the three companies are sizable, with her AstraZeneca holdings valued from $1,001-$15,000, and her J&J and Pfizer holdings valued from 15,001-$50,000.

Which is curious, given that just this weekend, Greene used her platform yet again to denigrate the vaccines and the vaccinated and proudly proclaim her intention to never get the jab during her speech at the far-right Turning Point USA conference Americafest.

See her comments below.

Greene told the audience:

“I’m not vaccinated. And they’re going to have a hell of a time if they want to hold me down and give me a vaccine."

Okay, Marge. Whatever you say.

On Twitter, Greene's latest bit of hypocrisy inspired a lot of distaste.








Following an inquiry from website Indy100, Greene said that she does not do her own investing, and that her portfolio is managed by "a third party advisor." Let's see if her next financial disclosures show her having divested from a cause she has literally called Satanic.

MAGA Senator Slammed After Scolding Americans For Whining About High Gas Prices Amid Iran War—And Wow

Kansas Republican Senator Roger Marshall chastised Americans for complaining about high gas prices and insisted they should consider that their "national security is even more important" than whatever blows are being dealt to their wallets at the gas pump.

Consumer prices are up 3.3% compared to a year ago, largely fueled by a surge in energy costs. The energy index jumped 10.9% in a single month as oil and gas prices climbed sharply. Amid the Iran war and the U.S. blockade of the Strait of Hormuz, oil has risen back to around $100 a barrel, pushing gasoline prices up by a record 25%.

A lot is going on in our world right now that gives us pause, and some of us might feel our hearts breaking under the weight of all of it. That makes acts of kindness, no matter how small they are, more important than ever before.

X user @oatmilkanie shouted out an unidentified child who clearly got the memo when they boarded a plane and discovered that the child had written a note for the next person to sit in their seat, directly on the paper nausea bag that's snuggled in the seat pocket in front of the passenger's knees.

But discovering a whole other room with a creepy door would quickly transform a space from a rental to something out of a horror movie real quick for anybody.
