    Alternate headline:

    “Marjorie Taylor Greene confirms she is hiding Republican crimes or scandalous behavior.”

    Been hearing this for days, and it’s just such a weird self-own at this point. It’s bizarre enough that I can’t decide if this is meant to scare them into submission or what? That’s the only angle that makes sense.

      It’s a threat. She’s telling them to not release the report, or else.

        Yeah, but why her own party? Like if one comes out, she’s just going to blow up the rest? It’s just such a weird take.

          Because Gaetz is her bestie and she knows he’s in danger of not getting the votes to get confirmed. The hardcore trumpists will absolutely use blackmail to get what they want. And they don’t want to lose face by having a trump pick get defeated early on. But yeah, she should have leaned on them privately, not in public. She’s not the smartest.

    Wasn’t QAnon supposed to be all about protecting kids from evil pedophiles in the government?

    But as soon as an actual child molester is nominated to a government position they’ve got his back all the way.

    A comment like that should get her on a stand, under oath.
