To be clear to set the record straight on my support for the Massie Epstein discharge petition.
I stand with girls and women who are sexually abused and raped.
Period. Every time. At all times.
For me, it’s not about a pissing contest between political parties or political enemies.
The Epstein rape and pedophile network must be exposed.
The women and their attorney have said over and over that Donald Trump did nothing wrong and he was the only one that helped the women. That is factually true.
Also, the Democrats who had power for the past four years never did a single thing or showed they even cared about these women who were victims of Jeffrey Epstein. They could have exposed the entire thing while they had power but never lifted a finger to do so.
If anyone is implicated, then they have the right to clear their name.
Just as millions of Americans have had to do when falsely accused of a crime.
I’ve had to do that many times and even had to defend myself against lies and pay massive attorney bills to do it.
For example, I was wrongly accused of insurrection and actually had to sit on a witness stand, in a Georgia court of law, and defend myself and clear my name.
Release all the Epstein information by any means possible.
And return the focus to helping Americans.
I hear daily about how Americans can’t afford to pay their health insurance monthly premium, can’t afford rent, can’t afford to buy a home, can’t afford to pay for care for their aging parents, and can’t afford life in general.
The obsession over the Epstein files and fighting about it should not be happening and needs to end.
But it’s only an issue in the news because it has become a political fight and it should not be one.
My name is staying on the discharge petition and I will dive into the Oversight committee investigation just as I do with every investigation.
And to be clear once again, I stand with the women, and the women who were raped at 14.

Isn’t Marjorie potato head correct on the issue of Gaza? I support her on this issue. Just because I disagree with her on lots of other issues doesn’t mean she is incorrect about the Epstein files and Gaza…
The people do understand, these are not left or right issues
Edit: also it feels weird to say it but please don’t wish death on people. Dehumanizing each other is how we get here.
Yeah she’s either paranoid or being threatened and the latter seems quite likely
She is more principled than Biden, Obama, Bush, and all the other corporate republicans and democrats, including newsom, Buttigieg, Kamala, and Hillary.
As much as I would love to make fun of her I’m not gonna do it because of these two issues she has expressed policies I agree with… there’s actually a few other things where she aligns with progressive values as well to be honest but I would have to remember them… damn it it’s a couple of other things lol
Oh shut the fuck up. She has spent the entire time hurling abuse and slurs and lies and general shittery.
When someone shows you who they are, believe them the first time. -Maya Angelou.
On these two issues, Epstein and Israeli governments corruption fraud abuse tinkering in us politics and the ongoing genocide in Gaza, MTG is correct
And no, I will not shut the fuck up but thank you for offering
Would you prefer MTG as president right now over Obama, Biden or Harris?
Well, wait… Obama can’t run
But at least Obama gives awesome speeches while he fucks you over. Oh, I guess privatized mandatory health insurance is so fucking amazing lol, he does get Obamacare which they are still fighting to dismantle.
But you see now with Trump how much of a pedestal the president gets. Obama was weak as fuck.
Him and bush and clinton and the folks before him chose to commit literal war crimes rather than help the American people
So you’d rather Obama over MTG?
No, between the two, Obama can’t run because he has already served two terms. But not saying I would vote for potato head green though
The question was would you prefer MTG as president right now over Obama, Biden or Harris?
Biden or Harris couldn’t be president right now because Trump is and they’re pretty low on the list of presidential succession.
If we are talking about presidential succession I don’t think MTG is anywhere near that list.
If we are just talking in theory, I would prefer that neither of your options were president 😝
…
No wait, the speaker of the house is next after Vance 😭
I also would not prefer the minority leader of the house Jeffries 😭
….
Okay I don’t think our country has any real leaders but we can agree to support the representatives for supporting the policy issues that we agree with, when and if they do so for those specific policies
(Edit: that’s how you get bills passed that you support in My country)
You don’t want neither of the four options?
Honestly? I think there are three options
Neither of the four would be great
In your hypothetical:
Obama can’t run because he’s already two term
Biden has dementia (it may actually be the effects of cancer fighting drugs for his health issues, but he can’t be president. He also literally called strom Thurmond a friend back in the day so… no)
Harris literally hugs billionaires thinking this is good campaign strategy, and she has no personality, yes, I saw her on Saturday night live, she chose an excellent Vice president though I would actually consider voting for in the future
MTG, hell no haha, too kookie
Edit: and no, knowing what I know about Obama now I would not vote for him, even if he was able to run according to the constitution
Edit: Obama may have been the first to refuse Netanyahu into the White House for a particular meeting though, but because the house was so aipac they invited him there instead if i remember correctly
Obama is a real person one sec ill post the video here

I guess it is pretty hard to answer that question so I don’t blame you for dancing around it.
If you do end up answering I’ll answer the JD Vance vs MTG question you posed.
Preference is not the same as a choice. I would prefer neither obviously
Between Vance and MTG, who would you support for president, my counter question haha
Her motivation is primarily antisemitism, not care for Palestinians.
Antisemitism accusations are really running dry at the moment, I suppose you want to compare the current, ongoing genocide in Gaza to Potato Head Greene’s comments about Jewish space lasers?
Good luck with that, hoss
The antisemitism arguments are also running dry because the Palestinian people are Semites, same and equal to the people of Israel.
No, she's a literal, actual antisemite. There are enough decent people calling out the horrors in Gaza. You don't need to defend this piece of trash.
I will as long as you refuse to respond to the actual policy issue that she is referring to instead of attacking her for receiving death threats,
You make yourself sound like a terrible human being for attacking her when she is literally saying that she is living in fear for expressing her first amendment rights
Your antisemitism arguments no longer hold water as I explained earlier. Mtg is against giving weapons and spending any more god damn federal funding on Israeli weapons to continue their ongoing slaughter of innocent civilians in Gaza.
And also, your comments seem to be antisemitic. Do you acknowledge the ongoing genocide in Gaza by the Israeli government?
Lol, "attacking her for receiving death threats". I made one comment pointing out what she really cares about, nothing about the alleged danger the queen of bullshit is claiming.
And she's not against killing innocents. She's against Israel, full stop. Learn to value your allies' values. You roll around with trash, you don't get to pretend you're clean of that shit.
Lastly, I already called out the genocide, so your bs gotcha is as useless as she is. Get some actual points next time.
You sound really upset?
I assume maybe you’re like me and don’t read the original post a lot of times so just an FYI, your antisemitism arguments again at her are fodder for late night television.
You’re trying to deflect from literal genocide by laughing at MTG feeling vulnerable from death threats here.
Prove me wrong bruh
Also I don’t know if you watch the news but most of the fucking world is against the Israeli government right now, including supermajorities of Americans (from both sides of the aisle)
Committing genocide against a foreign and sovereign government and people (as Israel is currently doing) will tend to have that effect.
Well, I haven't "laughed at her", nor have I deflected anything about the genocide. Got anything more substantial to accuse me of?
Then go rally around one of them. Why are you so committed to defending this particular bigot from criticism and deflecting from her well documented antisemitism?
Do you deny that Netanyahu and the current Israeli government are bigots?
Why are you supporting genocide?
MTG has expressed concern and support for the Semitic Palestianian people. Supporting Palestinians is pro-semitic, not anti-semitic…
The Palestinian people are equal to and just as important as the citizens of Israel. I’m sorry if this hurts your feelings. But, your personal feelings don’t actually matter when it comes to the facts.
No.
Where have I done that?
She's lying.
Never said they weren't.
Now answer my questions.
🥱
Figures.
Which policy are you referring to is antisemitic that she has voted for as a US representative?
It does figure.
I don't know, I am generally a pacifist, but I absolutely wish death on ICE agents and I feel zero guilt for it. I firmly believe they are a net negative stain on the world and offer no redeeming qualities.
There’s some people I wish didn’t exist, but here we are. I promise, it doesn’t do you any good to hold hate in your heart for these guys, although I hear you.
Words are very important, there’s a difference between saying I wish death on someone versus I wish they would stop spewing their hate and acting on it… the first thing that comes to mind is the Mario and Luigi guy. I wish corporations were not considered people according to the citizens united case so we could get money out of our politics… but it’s not cool to go around randomly shooting people I suppose…. Same with the Kirk killer. That guy was vile, but he didn’t deserve to die like that.
I guess I just think that what we are arguing about is more of a symptom and not the actual problem.
Don’t make fun of someone for receiving death threats, in general specifically, but especially if it’s about a policy or specific issue you literally agree with them on.
Hmm, okay, you are right and articulating it well. Appreciate you.
