I m upset : Marjorie Taylor Greene warns the base won t survive unless her feelings are validated

Get the Full StoryMarjorie Taylor Greene has once again positioned herself as the self-appointed spokesperson for the base, warning Republican leadership that if her personal frustrations aren t addressed, their electoral future is doomed. On X, the Georgia representative began by establishing her importance, declaring I represent the base, before launching into her laundry list of grievances. I represent the base and when I m frustrated and upset over the direction of things, you better be clear, the base is not happy. I campaigned for no more foreign wars.And now we are supposedly on the verge of going to war with Iran.I don t think we should be bombing foreign Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene RepMTG May 2, 2025 One of Greene s biggest grievances is U.S. foreign policy, particularly regarding Ukraine and Iran. She rails against the idea of America getting involved in another foreign conflict, warning that we re on the verge of war with Iran and accusing Ukraine of being a corrupt, money-laundering operation. She even questions why America should care about securing Ukraine s mineral rights when we could be mining our own. Greene s critique of foreign intervention isn t entirely without merit there s a legitimate debate to be had about the costs and benefits of U.S. involvement in global conflicts. But Greene doesn t engage in that debate. Instead, she frames the issue in the most conspiratorial terms possible, accusing Ukraine of selling weapons to America s enemies and labeling its president, Volodymyr Zelenskyy, a dictator. The COVID-19 pandemic, a frequent target of Greene s ire, received substantial attention in her digital diatribe. She demanded accountability for the communist and tyrannical acts made by the government during Covid, employing the kind of hyperbole that s become her trademark. Greene claimed there are millions of vaccine injuries and deaths figures that dramatically exceed even the most generous interpretations of adverse event reporting systems, which health authorities have repeatedly explained do not establish causality. Legal grievances featured prominently as well, with Greene bemoaning law fare she meant lawfare and demanding accountability for vicious attorneys and judges who supposedly ruined lives. This appears to reference January 6th defendants and possibly Trump s legal challenges, though the vague wording makes it difficult to determine which specific cases earned her ire. Her Twitter soliloquy concluded with concerns about election integrity, suggesting without evidence that votes are being stolen and that illegals are voting en masse claims repeatedly debunked by election officials from both parties. As a final flourish, Greene issued what amounted to a veiled threat: When you are losing MTG, you are losing the base. And Trump isn t on the ballot in the future, so do the math on that. In the meantime, we can only hope that the rest of Congress has the good sense to tune her out. Because if validating Marjorie Taylor Greene s feelings is the key to saving the Republican base, then maybe the base deserves to crumble.
