‘I’m like, “[Expletive] you,”’ Marjorie Taylor Greene said about receiving threats from White House officials
Marjorie Taylor Greene has come out swinging at the White House over the Trump administration’s handling of the Jeffrey Epstein sex trafficking case.
The rift between the MAGA firebrand and White House deepened after a Trump official apparently told her that her support of bipartisan legislation ordering the release of the so-called Epstein files would be viewed as a “very hostile act.”
Greene is one of four Republicans, alongside Reps. Thomas Massie, Nancy Mace and Lauren Boebert to have signed on to a discharge petition to force the release of files related to Epstein. If a discharge petition receives the signature of a majority of members, they can force a vote without the consent of leadership.
In what universe are any of these people going to be held accountable??
The safest route for sure is to just follow the pack and not stand out. Unless you think that the average Republican has a serious risk of ending up in prison, in which case you’re more delusional than she is.
I’m old enough to remember when people (including my young and naive self) thought that the Bush administration would be held accountable for illegal torture and spying and all that. Democrats got a supermajority and didn’t touch them, and even continued a lot of the shit they’d been doing. The rule of law simply doesn’t apply to you if the only people who could enforce it against you are these soft, civility-obsessed careerists. It’s pure cope to think otherwise.
