Context

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.

How did she think America got into the situation it's in now? She thought all this bullshit has been genuine?

[-] DragonTypeWyvern@midwest.social 15 points 11 months ago

She's a Nazi and she thinks Israel killed Kirk for being one of the other conservatives pushing for the release of the Epstein files.

Honestly can't say I'd be particularly surprised to find out Epstein was running a compromat manufacturing ring for Israel, it just wouldn't be a Jewish thing, it'd be an inevitable result of oligarchy and making security exceptions for fascist states thing.

[-] Serinus@lemmy.world 4 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago)

She might not be a Nazi, actually. And that might be the reason for the death threats.

She's an idiot for other reasons, including being a maga true believer.

Wait, she's definitely an anti-Semite, even if she's coincidentally right about Gaza.

I meant she's not a Forth Reich American Nazi that wants fascism here (and is decidedly pro Israel).

Sorry our historical rerun has a few lines crossed.

[-] ChicoSuave@lemmy.world 3 points 11 months ago

She doesn't think.

[-] DancingBear@midwest.social 21 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago)

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.

[-] reallykindasorta@slrpnk.net 10 points 11 months ago

Yeah she’s either paranoid or being threatened and the latter seems quite likely

Her motivation is primarily antisemitism, not care for Palestinians.

[-] DancingBear@midwest.social -5 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago)

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.

[-] ech@lemmy.ca 10 points 11 months ago

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 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.

[-] DancingBear@midwest.social 4 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago)

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.

[-] AlecSadler@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 points 11 months ago

Hmm, okay, you are right and articulating it well. Appreciate you.

[-] sin_free_for_00_days@sopuli.xyz 13 points 11 months ago

She is a stupid, uneducated, attention needing, nutjob. The fact that she is on the right side for an issue doesn't change that fact. I can't think of someone - no matter how deplorable they may be - that I disagree with 100% of the time, just like I can't think of someone I agree with 100% of the time.

[-] obsidianfoxxy7870@lemmy.blahaj.zone 12 points 11 months ago

"I am not suicidal" without any prompting is such a suicidal thing to say.

[-] BCsven@lemmy.ca 26 points 11 months ago

I assume because she keeps asking for the Epstein files to be released that she has been threatened with "suicide"

[-] DancingBear@midwest.social 9 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago)

I would agree with your assessment, it’s either that or gaza

[-] Ilovethebomb@sh.itjust.works 8 points 11 months ago

The implication is she's concerned someone will kill her and make it look like an accident.

[-] BanMe@lemmy.world 2 points 11 months ago

The only thing missing is manic laughter written in between sentences

[-] Sterile_Technique@lemmy.world 8 points 11 months ago

She isn't suicidal because, as usual, she does what's worst for this country.

[-] TuffNutzes@lemmy.world 6 points 11 months ago

Her and Nancy Mace, MAGA mental illness on full display.

[-] rising_man@lemmy.world 3 points 11 months ago

She got the russian money but didn't deliver, so the FSB thinks about a window accident.

She knows it and warns us.

[-] MrFunkEdude@piefed.social 1 points 11 months ago

That first sentence makes my brain itch. So many grammatical errors. I can’t tell if she’s happy or not?

[-] KelvarCherry@lemmy.blahaj.zone 1 points 11 months ago

Typical Smug alt-right contrarian figurehead LARPing for their persecution fetish; but it seems this somehow got MTG to push against her party a bit... so, win?
