Greene Grift?
Marjorie Taylor Greene is basically useless. What exactly does she do for the movement, besides talk? She's got zero notable legislation, besides voting no on the Trump impeachment and yes on challenging 2020, as well as multiple failed attempts at impeaching Sleepy Joe. That's it. She's an elected official, and yet she provides nothing besides annoyingly generic talking points.
I, too, had high hopes for her after the censure, thinking that maybe we'd finally have a based, politically incorrect congresswoman (bar Paul Gosar), but what has she done, as of late? Apologize for an accurate comparison? People like her and Lauren Boebert seem to not understand that what made Trump so great was his provocative, unapologetic attitude, and apologizing to the unforgiving left defeats that whole purpose.

- Well, duh. After disenfranchising 700,000 Americans by striping her of her committee assignments, she has little to do other than speak to the American people, fundraise, and work the floor during important votes. It was the so-called "Democrats" who supposedly believe in equality who disenfranchised her constituents. Adam Schiff and AOC should take note how she was treated when the chickens come home.

- MTG is the one who stymied The Squad, exposed the DC Gulag (compelling its warden to taken down her own postings), and became the most effective congressman despite being stripped of all committee assignments (which she'll get back after the midterms). MTG is immensely popular among her constituents, and is sought-for by other candidates campaigning elsewhere. Seems to me she should be the Conservative of the Year 2021.--Andy Schlafly (talk) 14:43, December 31, 2021 (EST)
- Striped of her committee assignments, she's been fighting with one arm tied behind her back, and has built a national constituency. In the new Congress, we should make her Chair of the Rules Committee, and make all the communists who voted to disenfranchise her district come and genuflect before her if they want any of their bills introduced.

Feeding at the hog trough
IMO, most people don't understand the significance of being stripped of committee assignments. A vote on a committee is how members bring home the bacon for their districts, and trade with members on other committees for legislation to divvy up the pot. So her (and Gosar's) constituents have not only been denied equal representation, they don't get their share of the pork, either. It's the voters who get punished, not the member. Meanwhile, unlike most freshman members, MTG gets a good look at how Congress really works, and how D.C. operates. She's gotten a two-year crash course that took Pelosi & Steny Hoyer 7 or 8 decades to accumulate between them. RobSLet's Go Brandon! 15:59, December 31, 2021 (EST)
