This sounds like a joke, but I promise you it is real:

The reason why Congress has not yet agreed on aid to Ukraine and Israel is, Marjorie Taylor Greene is flooding the house floor with fantasy amendments, including:

  1. Requiring members of Congress to sign up for fighting in Ukraine

  2. Requiring Ukraine to “close all bio-laboratories” (A conspiracy theory created by Vladimir Putin)

  3. Introducing “space lasers” to protect the US border

Obviously, none of these amendments will be adopted.

@_ohcoco_ I wonder what she has ever delivered for her voters back in Georgia, if anything at all.

Interesting
Sort of a variation on the filibuster concept.

@randahl

call a cop, have her arrested for contempt of Congress & move on with your day, there, done!

i'm astonished that there isn't a single GOP who has the spine to Do Something about her disruptive & at times criminal behavior on the floor of Congress-- wait, i take that back, all GOP are doing something-- they're going along with her betrayal of Ukraine & the US so they may continue taking donations (payoffs) from Russia

next question!

@randahl There is no way she is not funded by Russia. It seems so incredibly obvious 🤯🤯

randahl OP ,
@randahl@mastodon.social avatar

@tvachr I am pretty sure, if the FBI had proof, Marjorie was a Russian asset, she would be behind bars now.

So… maybe we should consider alternative options, like her simply having a political overlap with Russian political positions, or her knowing how much attention she can grab by taking the position of the enemy, or something else.

@randahl @tvachr

i am pretty sure the FBI has proof & doesn't care

after all it is no secret where Mike Johnson gets his funding, is HE behind bars? https://www.newsweek.com/who-konstantin-nikolaev-money-mike-johnson-1870600

nobody's coming to save us, there are GOPs in the FBI as in everywhere else & the good investigators are probably completely overwhelmed with 45's crimes

@randahl You're probably right. It just seems so absurd

randahl OP ,
@randahl@mastodon.social avatar

@tvachr she is not that different from Danish former member of parliament, Marie Krarup, in my opinion. Less intelligent, and even more annoying, but very similar in her affection for everything Russian.

tvachr ,
@tvachr@mstdn.social avatar

@randahl True. Krarup is not as loud in her communication but similar in many views.

    The legislative version "flooding the zone" with crap.

    To paraphrase another on masto: "In would be considered a useful idiot. Here in the US she's just an ."

    @randahl Ye gods what a madcap fascist jackass she is.

    Space lasers at the border. Great. Let’s fry holes in desperate children’s heads. That’ll learn’m.

    randahl OP ,
    @randahl@mastodon.social avatar

    @Shufei I especially like, she wants an “iron dome” at the border for shooting down… I don’t know… refugees in hot air balloons?

    @randahl it’s the legislative equivalent of throwing sand in the works. She’s a traitor to our republic and a threat to global democracies.

    randahl OP ,
    @randahl@mastodon.social avatar

    @mckra1g her voters must be people who do not follow politics closely.

    Why isn’t she under investigation?

    randahl OP ,
    @randahl@mastodon.social avatar

    @Blinxeto She might be. If there is an FBI investigation into possible foreign interference, that would be classified, and we would not know before the person was arrested.

    They need to prioritize.
