I'm not even a fan of hers but what she said is fine. It's not her job to support either Zelensky or Putin. It's her job to support the people who elected her and the country she serves. That's it.
We need more of this mindset, not less. We need to be done sticking our heads in everyone's business, but I do see why the post stuck out to you as looking messed up, since it could be read as a really beta msm-type stance.
Just like Trump and Hydroxy in 2020, she can't just support Putin/Russia. Must maintain optics to not lose normies (and would surely stir the BSMSM fake news hornets nest). I thought the other things she said were legit.
A part of sorting out America is getting rid of the US-funded bioweapons labs in Ukraine, which were the first targets of Russia's military op.
We (here) all know that Russia isn't murdering people. It's been continuously revealed that the Azov battalion is responsible for the atrocities that are occurring in Ukraine. I'm betting MTG knows this too (I don't see how a US Congressman would have less access to accurate info than an Internet forum)...so why would she say such a thing?
What MTG is doing is sewing further discord by tailgating onto the fake news narrative that further targets Russia, which can be very damaging when the American people are crying out for Russian blood, undeservedly.
A part of healing America is to recognize that we have largely been the villains over the past few decades. A large part of how we fix ourselves internally is how we behave and interact with other countries around the world.
I don't think MTG is corrupt but ultimately, end of the day she has a career to protect, in a system that you simply cannot be a true renegade - at least not yet. And she has gone much further than other nominally 'patriot' R's in exposing congressional shittiness.
Don't get me wrong, fren...I am a fan of MTG. She is out there saying out loud what a lot of us have been screaming into the ear of a tone deaf Republican establishment. There are a lot of positive things that MTG has done for America, so credit where it is due.
I concede that there may perhaps be more going on the background that we are privy to, requiring her to stand with the narrative for now.
That's why I love GAW, it's the best forum I've ever found aligned with my way of thinking. We can agree and disagree, debate and use dialectic.
With MTG, one of the main things I'm impressed with is that she's gone public about how bills were being passed in congress with a minimal number of senators present, without them being read, and taking a verbal 'yay' or 'nay' count. She's been in there since insisting that bills get read in full and that the votes are recorded. So whatever her intentions are, at least she's done that for due process' sake.
Not sure you can verify he ain't there fren, if we're gonna be honest with ourselves.
Putin is not what the media claims he is, and they have the motivations wrong. However, Putin ain't no saint, and the enemy of my enemy is my friend. So dressing him to be a saint ain't gonna change that.
As we've all seen, nobody involved in this is completely innocent, and it ain't black and white. I'll take Putin's grayish white right now and appreciate it. But I'm not so self deluding that i cant see black spots here and there. He never claimed to be playing 100% paladin.
Like I said, I'm OK with it for now, sounds like you are too, what does that say about us?
Look at her stock trading history. Bought $15k or something like that in defense.industry stocks BEFORE Russia went into Ukraine. She is paying herself.
Not sure if she has always been controlled Op. or if they just added her to their team or if she is trying to play both sides.
First and foremost, I don’t think elected officials should be able to trade. That being said, 15k is closer to zero than real money and we shouldn’t be distracted by what is essentially to those people, chump change. I for one am still trying to separate the signal from the noise
personally don't buy defense stocks, but $15k on defense stocks was a no brainer. possibility of war was headline news for a month before the invasion.
i support a ban on trading for elected leaders, but the way you worded your first post with 'BEFORE' in all caps implied that she must have had foreknowledge which was what i was responding to.
I am not sure about MTG, however, not many US politicians are calling out Ukraine as Nazi's. She is playing politics here. You don't have to support putin to be against supporting Ukraine.

I haven't seen any evidence but it is told that MTG invested heavily into Energy and Military stocks right before Russia invaded Ukraine. Maybe just a Larp Lefty trying to Dis her.

I do not support Marjorie Taylor Greene. Opportunist.

Playing Devil's Advocate, she's taking neither side and saying fuck that shit, let's sort out America.

That's a very balanced counterpoint. Cheers 🙂

We'll see how this all plays out.
I agree man! I find that rational discussion and debate is great fuel for gaining better and more well-rounded knowledge.

Thats the only way the rest of the message will reach normies.
So lying, like a democrat? You should NOT justify this behavior.
Technically she can say she doesn't really know whats going on with Russian forces.
She didn’t say that. She said he was murderous.
Maybe thats what she believes. Maybe she is playing her role, like everyone else in this Movie.

I look at the fact that she can influence policy directly resulting in her.making more money.
She is profiting from her position. That is why I think she is taking the stance she is taking.

Politicians love to hear themselves talk.
Anxiously awaiting Marco Rubio's hot take on Ukraine.
I haven't seen any evidence but it is told that MTG invested heavily into Energy and Military stocks right before Russia invaded Ukraine. Maybe just a Larp Lefty trying to Dis her.
The same one that got her to endorse the WORST candidate in the Ohio Senate race?
No one paid her. She is simply a politician who is on the right side speaking her opinion.
Optics, disinfo is necessary
So she’s a liar? We should vote for a liar? I’m in her district and she’s not doing well.
Just playing her part.
Hahaha remember when everyone on this forum thought she was the best thing ever?
