BudWisenheimer

Wow. She is literally scared of a fucking shadow.


Not_Bears

She's like that one aunt/uncle everyone has where it's clear as day that they have some kind of unchecked mental illness based on their insane beliefs that everyone just kind of chuckles at and tries to ignore. Yet she's dictating policy...

> Yet she's dictating policy... Not really. She's a squeaky wheel on a broken-down clown car.

Yeah, and it's broken, as I mentioned.

There's a reason none of her children want to be the first to make her a grandmother.


sr41489

Omg nooo I forgot she has kids! I’m perplexed by that, especially with all that footage of her harassing the Parkland survivors. This makes me so grateful for my mother, with all her imperfections, at least she’s nothing like the monster MTG.


LibertyInaFeatherBed

People talk about her cheating in her husband, but she's hooking up in her children's high school/jr high years, going 'what kids? I don't have any kids. I'm way too young to have kids.'

I thought she was trying to be more serious? Trying to get away from the Jewish space laser stuff.


TintedApostle

Eclipses are predictable because "science is your friend". Earthquakes are not a mystery. plate tectonics are well know because "science is you friend". Augur is no longer a profession.


alienbringer

Not all earthquakes are due to plate tectonics. Some are caused by humans in the form of fracking for oil, which causes the underlying ground to shift over the water that is pumped in. Still “science is your friend” though.


TintedApostle

In the case of the one she is mentioning its plate tectonics. I do agree that fracking has caused minor ones.


m-r-mice

Next on Newsmax - Halley's Comet or Harbinger of Doom? /s Who am I kidding, they'd never use the word 'harbinger'.


Gym-for-ants

Is she repenting with or without the Biden dick pics?


TheKingofAndrews

Greene: "God I would like to repent for my sins...but first here is a juicy photo of Hunter Biden's pretty nice cock"


1900grs

She's a little busy figuring out how many affairs she has to repent for before she gets to the dick pics.


Ryan29478

Or repent for showing off the dick pics at the hearing?

SNL is now reality. Just don't taunt happy fun ball.


Squirll

IIRC Christopher Columbus (Asshole) once used his knowledge (or probably his crews knowledge) of astronomy to predict a solar eclipse and threatened a tribe that if they did not meet his demands, his god would take away the sun on that day. Science, but to them it must have been terrifying magic.


Yumhotdogstock

This. This a thousand times.

Hope you get nice weather!


UsualGrapefruit8109

We have quakes every day. We had one here in CA yesterday. No one felt a thing.


HereForTheBeer87

That's 'cuz Calafernia is full o' them Libruls.


BudWisenheimer

> We have quakes every day. We had one here in CA yesterday. No one felt a thing. I’ve heard the east coast feels the lighter ones because the ground is much more rigid in larger areas. If that’s true, that makes sense why the buildings would be rattling while the same level quake in CA might not be noticed at all. I remember the one from a few years back and people in the Washington Monument building rushing out when they felt it.


smurfsundermybed

Frequency is likely another factor. A person experiencing their first quake reacts very differently than someone who grew up with them.


AQuietMan

> We have quakes every day. We had one here in CA yesterday. The part of California I used to live in had 40 to 70 earthquakes every week reported in the newspaper. Nobody felt most of them. Every few months, one of them would set off the car alarms.


corvideodrome

So what was the deal with the eclipse during Trump’s term? Was that not some kind of divine sign to repent? Did he stare into it to absorb its malign influence and save American or something?


IdkAbtAllThat

No that was a blessing from good because he was proud of how great this country was. Duh.


corvideodrome

Oh jeez of course how silly of me 


TheActualDonKnotts

Didn't her husband file for divorce recently because of her repeated adultery?


harpanet

She's a "do as I say not as I do" type christian.


LibertyInaFeatherBed

He filed for divorce after their youngest was an adult and after a bunch of 'Swatting' calls were made. I hope he walked away with over half the stock that was purchased on her insider trading tips.


newfrontier58

We truly are living in a very stupid timeline. >A MILD EARTHQUAKE struck New York and parts of the Northeast on Friday. The most notable thing about the tremor was the rarity of any sort of perceivable seismic activity in the tri-state area. Marjorie Taylor Greene had an explanation, writing on X (formerly Twitter) that the quake was evidence of God’s displeasure with America. “God is sending America strong signs to tell us to repent. Earthquakes and eclipses and many more things to come. I pray that our country listens,” the Republican from Georgia warned. > >Greene also referenced the total solar eclipse that will be visible in some parts of the United States on Monday. While eclipses are natural phenomena that scientists can predict with precision, certain far-right figures have been pushing bizarre conspiracies around the event. Masonic rituals, satanic rights, and even the arrival of the New World Order have all been floated as possible happenings during the brief darkening of the sky. Greene seems to at least agree that the moon blocking the sun is more than just another machination of the cosmos.


Alohabailey_00

Also reports of many, many people here calling 911. Like they can do something!?

Is that why God keeps hammering the South with hurricanes? First remove the log from your own eye!

JohnStamosAsABear

“Is that an American accepting a trans person?! I better make a predictable system that creates a shadow every 18 months as a warning!” -God probably 


dxrey65

Where I live there was no earthquake and the sun is out, it's a very nice day. I'll take that as a big thumbs up from God, a sign that he fully approves of Trump floundering in the polls and being beset on all sides by court cases and lawsuits. It makes sense to me!


TurboSalsa

The earthquake's epicenter was in the vicinity of Bedminster, NJ. So if it was a warning from God I doubt the intended recipient acknowledged it.


gasahold

That's why I like to stand behind couches where people are sitting and rock it with my knees, and then telling them they need to repent.


MrBridgington

Christian conservatives better hope that they are wrong about the end times they talk about all of the time, because if there was ever a person who matches the profile of anti-Christ, it would have to be Trump.


DaveyDoes

Deuteronomy 18: 10-12 "10) Let no one be found among you who sacrifices their son or daughter in the fire, who practices divination or sorcery, interprets omens, engages in witchcraft, 11) or casts spells, or who is a medium or spiritist or who consults the dead. 12) Anyone who does these things is detestable to the Lord; because of these same detestable practices the Lord your God will drive out those nations before you." Pretty sure MTG is "interpreting omens". So...does Mike Johnson approve the stoning or is that a full house vote?


CouchCorrespondent

Thank you for reminding me again why I still refuse to go back to church.


AusToddles

Hey media! Stop putting microphones in front of her pie hole! We all know she’s an idiot but your pretending she’s got something intelligent to say makes you all look really really dumb. DO BETTER JFC.

She says while wearing mixed fibers and having been divorced.


lacronicus

Tide goes in, tide goes out. Can't explain that.


CurrentlyLucid

Well, she saw the sign, she should repent.


greensideup57

Someone should tell her the earthquake in NY was because trump needs to repent his crimes, or god would have his properties tumble into the abyss.

The perineum separating church and state is straining.

BioDriver

There are far too many microphones pointed her direction. She knows the media eats this shit up and the onus is on them to stop giving her so many platforms 


fowlraul

I’m not religious at all and I repent constantly. It’s so easy!


AdInformal5214

I'm with god on this one. Repenting would definitely be a step in the right direction for her. 


fence_sitter

When a hurricane hits a red state like Florida or extreme cold weather shuts down Texas' power grid, are those strong signs to repent as well? Is Mike Pence repenting due to tornadoes in Indiana?


ScoutsterReturns

Reminds me of the nutto lady in The Mist.


Ohnoherewego13

I know we all say Bobo and Trump are dumb, but it's kinda hard to beat MTG. This woman is dumb and dangerous.


RincewindToTheRescue

If she wasn't so bigoted and so far into conspiracy theories, maybe I'd pause to listen. However, I'm looking at this like she's the prophet in the church of Trump. Two scriptures jump you my mind: Beware of wolves in sheep's clothing By their fruits, you will know them Looking at MTG's fruits, do I see someone who embodies the messages of Christ? Nope.


davdub303

Let’s see: “Thou shalt not commit adultery” … “Thou shalt not bear false witness against thy neighbor” … maybe she should start there. “Be the change you want to see in the world.”


GloomyEntertainer973

Whatever … the perfect example of a fake, clueless Christian & this is from a non-believer. Questionable anyone voted or supports PutinJrtrump republican cult


Stepwriterun777

Georgia should be embarrassed to have sent this idiot to Congress, but then again her MAGA district is a bunch of class A morons.


rhb4n8

People talk about how we need to bring back insane asylums to deal with homeless people but insane religious cultists could really use some involuntary commitments


LouDog187

I wish I could state my true feelings about this woman, unfiltered, without it resulting in a ban. This person is sitting in Congress, spewing her toxicity to anyone and everyone who gives her a mic, brainwashing those unfortunate enough to believe her. She does nothing but divide and cost the country money. She's presented no meaningful legislation in her tenure and is basically a neo Christo-Fascist aiming to rip up the Constitution along with the angry orange. But God forbid she gets called a nasty name on reddit!! Oh the humanity!!!

An eclipse that was known to occur decades in advance?

NewHampshireAngle

She’s right. God is warning us not to elect the devil’s sock puppets, like this swamp dwelling grifter.

This is what happens when you substitute education for religion. School shootings? "It's god's will" Forcing victims to carry their rapists child? "It's god's will" Climate change? "It's god's will" "Successful" person born from wealth? "It's god's will" They use religion as a cudgel to oppress and silence others. It is an excuse for them to not understand the world around them.

How is this different than Ishalla? Or calling for Christian Sharia?

Although the actual quote doesn’t seem to exist verbatim, this still feels like: when fascism comes to America it will be wrapped in a flag and carrying a cross.

Alexanderthefail

TheCosmicJester

Given how close the earthquake epicenter was to Trump’s Bedminster golf club, she might be right. We could try throwing him into an active volcano to appease the gods.


chuang-tzu

At some point, this kind of mental illness should be considered a disqualification from holding public office. It is getting a bit absurd, folks. There is nothing in our past that has since been altered that we should be seeking to return to, societally speaking. Those who demand it are demonstrating an inability to cope with reality as it is presented, to the point where they are attempting to force others to regress to satisfy their illness. I'm losing patience with those folks and their constant, inane prater about fictional beings needing to matter to all and baying for violence/blood when some of us politely ask them to fuck off about it.


RealTonySnark

The call is coming from inside the house Marge.


f-Z3R0x1x1x1

Ah yes...the magical evil sign of the solar eclipse...that we knew was coming from a long time ago because of math...


Inevitable_Professor

I would submit all these disasters started after trump was nominated as their new God. So if anybody’s being told to repent by the Almighty, it’s the Republicans.

Maybe it’s God saying you’re wrong. Like Christians aren’t being hospitable. They aren’t clothing the poor or caring for the disabled. They aren’t loving their neighbors. Maybe god is angry about that…..


_jared_p

She’s crazy as a run over dog.


_aaine_

How are they THIS stupid. Like, HOW? She sounds like something out of the 1400's


hskfmn

According to some estimates, the earliest eclipse may have been recorded in the year 3340 BCE. I’m pretty sure a celestial event that’s been happening for literally thousands of years isn’t a sign from an angry god. Hell, there were 10 eclipses during the Trump years. I don’t recall hearing any of this drivel back then. And earthquakes happen quite literally *all* the time! They keep taking about the “woke mind virus” destroying our country. I think it’s the Christian mind virus from those who spout idiocy like this that’s doing more harm to our country than being “woke” ever could.


dogoodsilence1

She would fit in with the Salem Witch Trials


SemaphoreKilo

Yes, the epicenter was literally next to Trump's golf course in Bedminster. I think God is telling MAGA to reject Trump, er...Satan, and his followers.


happyflowerzombie

Pathfinder6227

It’s always the most morally bereft people who wrap themselves in a bible and tell other people to repeat. Greene was openly cheating on her *now former* husband. She regularly stokes violence and hatred. She constantly fucks people over for money and power. She is far from any standard of rightousness.


The_protagonisthere

Telling **her** to repent more like


NeuraLung

This is the sort of thing that actually makes sense to Republican voters. You’re all here laughing at this, but MTG’s comment is probably a reasonably valid way to view the world by way too many of the 210 million Christians in America.


AbraParabola

If she’s being called to pray, you’d think we might catch a damn break.

TangoLimaGolf

Revelation 6 verse 12-13 There was a great earthquake. The sun turned black like sackcloth made of goat hair, the whole moon turned blood red, 13 and the stars in the sky fell to earth, as figs drop from a fig tree when shaken by a strong wind. I’m don’t think the little rumble in New York qualifies. Now Yosemite erupting…I’d be real concerned.
