Marjorie Taylor Greene buried for 'fearmongering' about terror attack that hasn't happened

Republican Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene Saturday was accused of "fearmongering" by an ex-CIA official and others when she blamed Joe Biden for a hypothetical terrorist attack.

Greene, who was recently called a hypocrite for saying Biden was scared to debate without noting her chosen candidate Donald Trump has taken similar positions, used social media to push blame on the president for a purported terrorist attack she apparently expects to occur because of the shared Mexico border.

'She's done letting Ron talk': Casey DeSantis mocked for misleading Iowa caucus comments

Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis' wife Casey, who has taken an active role in her husband's campaign, appeared to urge supporters who don't live in Iowa to travel there and try to vote in the caucus anyway, saying on Fox News, “We’re asking all of these moms and grandmoms to come from wherever it might be — North Carolina, South Carolina — and descend upon the state of Iowa to be a part of the caucus because you do not have to be a resident of Iowa to be able to participate in the caucus. So moms and grandmoms are going to be able to come and be a part and let their voice be heard in support of Ron DeSantis.”

According to Florida Politics, she swiftly walked this statement back, clarifying that, "they cannot vote in the caucus process, but they can come and volunteer and they can be a part of it in that way." And the Iowa Republican Party, while not mentioning Casey DeSantis by name, put out a statement on X clarifying, "Remember: you must be a legal resident of Iowa and the precinct you live in and bring photo ID with you to participate in the #iacaucus!"

'Stabbed me in the back': Trump ally spills dirt on why she hates Marjorie Taylor Greene

A Donald Trump ally who has been floated as a press secretary hire in his potential future administration is spilling the beans on her dispute with fellow Trump ally Marjorie Taylor Greene, who many say is seeking to be V.P.

Laura Loomer, herself a failed Republican candidate, has been beefing with Greene for some time. In November, Loomer, a self-proclaimed journalist who has earned herself personal shout outs at Trump rallies, went for the jugular against the lawmaker and her new book, calling it "trash."

Furious Trump slams gag order ruling for stopping him 'telling the truth'

Former President Donald Trump reacted with fury after the D.C. Court of Appeals upheld Judge Tanya Chutkan's gag order against him in the 2020 election case — and he took to Truth Social to claim that it is preventing him from "telling the truth."

"An Appeals Court has just largely upheld the Gag Order against me in the ridiculous J6 Case, where the Unselect January 6th Committee deleted and destroyed almost all Documents and Evidence, saying that I can be barred from talking and, in effect, telling the truth," said Trump.

GOPer's rags-to-riches brag destroyed by admission in his own book

Top Republican Senate recruit Tim Sheehy, who is hoping to challenge Democratic Sen. Jon Tester in Montana, has characterized himself as a self-made entrepreneur who pulled himself up by his bootstraps. But according to The Daily Beast, his biography to voters leaves out some critical details that make that narrative fall apart.

Sheehy, who made waves this month by suggesting all health insurance should be abolished and poor patients should be made to barter with doctors to receive care, is the founder of Bridger Aerospace and, in one speech to voters, said, “When I saw a business opportunity, I took my entire life savings — I didn't get a government loan, didn’t get a government handout—I started a business in my barn and built it from scratch.”

'Marjorie Taylor Greene just bribed Donald': Mary Trump warns of signals from wannabe V.P.

Donald Trump is being bribed by Marjorie Taylor Greene and Vivek Ramaswamy right before our eyes, and the media is missing it, the former president's own niece, Mary Trump, said on Thursday.

Ramaswamy said at the Alabama GOP debate that the Jan. 6 insurrection attempt was an "inside job," implying that it could perhaps be a false flag operation. This ignores, of course, that Trump was still president at the time when the event occurred.
