Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) made clear on Saturday afternoon that she has no intention of taking her own life after making the case for the release of the Jeffrey Epstein files.
The controversial conservative lawmaker appeared to be making the case that a “foreign government or powerful people” would attempt to silence her permanently to halt her efforts and, should she be found dead like the convicted pedophile in his jail cell, there needs to be an investigation.
Anything to stay in the news cycle.
Jewish space lasers are coming for you Marjie.
So she really drank the kool aid and now they can’t handle her and lost control?
The only ones who would harm her over this would be other Republicans. I wish she would let that sink in, because she’s spent her career propping them up.
Israel.
On a completely unrelated topic, I wonder if she’s looking to redo the windows on her house?
Why not ask her man Trump to protect her from those threats?
Shame.
Is this the first time a sitting member of the U.S. Congress has said something like this?
It’s entirely performative, she’s not a threat, she doesn’t have enough power or knowledge about anything, nobody cares, she just wants her base to think she’s some kind of political John Wick.
Conservatives thrive and subsist entirely on narratives and feelings, so this kind of performance is what keeps them going. We can’t stop it, we can’t make them start using their minds instead of their movie-brains, so we have to start learning to perform in different ways to swing their fickle, wandering attention spans and toddler-like emotions where we want them.
in public, but the have all been threatened by Miller’s Brownshirts.

Who cares about shameless attention seekers like MTG and Candace Owens?
This is just media friendly paranoia designed by their publicity teams for public consumption.
Exactly, she want to sound influential, but she’s not important enough to eliminate. In fact, she’s so untrustworthy for both sides, that she’s more valuable running her mouth, since everything she says sounds so moronic, nobody on either side believes anything she says.
She’s just a really stinky fart in the wind.
Yeah I don’t care about them either but if MTG is keeping the topic of Epstein Files in the news, then I’m not mad.
I have no idea who candace owens is, and id rather keep it that way i think, but this isnt about MTG as a person.
This is about someone who is “on their side” who has been consistent about releasing the epstein files. About sharing truth and knowledge (presumably) regardless of who it takes down, and now shes being threatened to be permanently silented. If she’s offed, im not going to shed a tear for her personally, but the message thats being sent is a damning one.
The message was sent with Epstein himself.
lived like a tool and might die like a tool
But it’s only an issue in the news because it has become a political fight and it should not be one.
Like religion, or medicine?
Still, as much as I dislike her, I appreciate that she’s taking a stand on this issue.
I don’t trust her, but I also don’t trust the people she’s claiming she’s afraid of.
I don’t think she’s faking the fear. Plenty of people get swept up into the fascist machine because of fear for acting out. Eventually your just forget who you are
well the last republican mouthpiece that broke and called for the epstein files was kirk, and you see how that went for him.
Like the end of the SA leadership: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Night_of_the_Long_Knives
This is one thing that she’s actually been very consistent about.
Three hours later, she hinted that she fears for her life.
She wrote,” I am not suicidal and one of the happiest healthiest people you will meet. I have full faith in God and Jesus Christ is my Lord and Savior. As a sinner, I am only saved through His grace and mercy. With that said, if something happens to me, I ask you all to find out which foreign government or powerful people would take heinous actions to stop the information from coming out. Not only about this issue, but because of the truth that I have been speaking. The People understand what I’m saying.”
Meanwhile Candace Owens seems to be implying today that Charlie Kirk’s accused assassin is also at risk of being Epsteined
I hate to say this bc of all the insane conspiracy theories I’ve heard these two spout, but I feel like there is a decent chance these both might be legit concerns, but they’ve cried wolf (or Jewish space lasers) so many times in the past, nobody is taking them seriously now.
MTG will be fine but that kid who killed kirk… Would fit better into the MAGA narrative dead than alive.
But he’ll fit MUCH better as an example. They’re not gonna throw away an opportunity to publicly execute him to show what happens if you dare to attack one of theirs. He’s in custody, they’re already spinning the narrative that he was brainwahsed into radical leftism, they’re not gonna just knock him off. He’s a pocket ace if they play their cards right.
It’s very convenient that the guy who supposedly shot up the ICE facility is dead.
Hey, he hated ICE so much he killed… detainees. Wait.
Hey, he wrote “anti-ice” on one bullet with a sharpie, that’s pretty much a signed confession.
/s for those who need it
Dead men
tell no talesdon’t deny they belong to antifa.
Nothing will happen, but if MTG does it offed because of the Epstein files. Then we are in interesting times.
I’m sure it will be blamed on the libs.
I’m not so sure honestly. MTG is a true believer I think or is at least better at playing one than other Republicans. She has repeatedly said things that would have a MAGA republican posting on twitter a few hours later groveling to the god king for forgiveness but stuck to her guns.
To be clear I really really don’t like jewish space lasers lady but I think she is an actual Qanon believer and not a LARPer.
Unironically I’m also in this boat. She’s a good gague for the cultists.
'We are all afraid’: Murkowski says fear of retaliation from Trump administration is ‘real’
Remember this from back in April? I just thought she meant they might try to sabotage her re-election…
Already ending up like stallin’s people huh, WHO COULD HAVE CALLED THAT SHIT ON DAY ONE
“Those dastardly Clintons have killed again!”
It’s legit. We’ve heard of senators, congresspersons and judges saying the same things for months, in the MSM, no less. Take. Her. Seriously.
Of course they are legitimate concerns. Epstein was a warning, they can get anyone anywhere. They got Kirk, and they can get anyone.
another martyr in the making?
are they recycling the nutjobs while they are not needed anymore?
well Charlie Kirk didnt work for them so maybe try another? a woman this time?
the message was sent long ago.

I would take this as the moment they fell in line:
The train carrying members of Congress to a Republican retreat in West Virginia last month struck a garbage truck that had entered a railroad crossing after safety gates had come down, according to a new report released Wednesday.
Authorities identified the person killed as Christopher Foley, 28, of Louisa County, Va., one of two passengers inside the truck. The other passenger, still unidentified, was airlifted to the University of Virginia Medical Center with critical injuries.
The truck’s driver, also still unidentified, was transported to a hospital with serious injuries, according to Madeline Curott, public information officer of the Albemarle County, Va., police department.

The driver of the truck was transported by ground in serious condition. President Donald Trump had said Wednesday afternoon that the driver of the truck had been killed.
Marshall later told MSNBC that he first tried to help the deceased victim but “couldn’t find a pulse, so we started CPR and worked on that person for several, several minutes, and [it] just didn’t go real well for that gentlemen.”
First link is broken.
Thanks. Fixed. It’s just the link to my original comment containing that same text.
The same people who got Kirk killed?
With trans bullets, no less.
