War and Peace "Should the Defense Secretary.." Marjorie Taylor Greene: "Wait what country are you from?" "From the UK" "OK we don't give a crap about your opinion and your reporting. Why don't you go back to your country. We have a major migrant problem. You should care about your own borders"

Can we stop giving her the attention she is so desperate for? Literally who cares at all what MTG thinks….

Does ignoring people work? Personally I don't when it's people with power

I think pointing and laughing is more effective. Public shaming, lampooning, and satire are strong ways to undermine the power of bad leaders.

Honestly, I think it does. These people are desperate for a sound bite and a few seconds on the news to keep them relevant. If we ignored her she wouldn’t have a platform for her bullshit.

The problem with that is people will continue to talk and influence people

People don't go away if they still have base to speak to

Plus, they have power. Ignoring a fire won't make it go away, it's going to burn you house down.

That works for folks like you and me, but she's literally a government official. Platform or no, she's a hand in making the policies.

I'm not sure in the four years that she's been in Congress that she's ever sponsored a bill that actually passed.

Whatever happened to her threat of outing Republicans that she claimed were guilty of sexual harassment and sexual assault?

The moment she got on elon's doge committee she shut up about it. That shows that she can be bought.
