MTG is a one woman hit parade of stoopid lately.
"We've already warmed one degree celsius and do you know what happened since then?" Greene said Monday on Right Side Broadcasting. "Here, let me tell you. We have had more food grown since then, which feeds people. We are able to producing fossil fuels, keeps people's houses warm in the winter. That saves people's lives. People die in the cold."
“This earth warming and carbon is actually healthy for us,” Greene said. "It helps us to feed people, it helps keep people alive, it helps – the earth is more green than it was years and years ago, that's because of the earth warming, because of carbon."

New President - New Gutter. I am going to pledge my allegiance to Donald J. Trump and for the next 4 years I am going to be an even bigger asshole than I already am.
Marjorie Taylor Greene defeated John Cowan in the Republican primary runoff for U.S. House Georgia District 14 on August 11, 2020. You must be asking yourself, "How stupid must John Cowan be to lose to MTG?" Well, he is a neurosurgeon. https://www.linkedin.com/in/john-cowan-1641b6a2/

The problem was that he wasn't stupid enough. The GOP seems to celebrate stupidity and look down upon intelligence and education.

But Ben Carson has proven that a superior intellect is not a prerequisite for becoming a neurosurgeon. Maybe Dr Cowan pushes anecdote to data?
Or perhaps it’s an indication of the collective (lack of) intellect of the electorate?
He's just an example of the difference between "intelligent" and "smart".

All because we don't agree with his political stances?
I think Ben Carson is an example of, just cuz you have the brain power to do things like be a neurosurgeon, doesn't mean you can't still be ruined by shitty ideology.

No, because he believes that the pyramids were built by a guy from the Bible to store grain among other stupid things.

Yep. Most of the republicans I know look down on a college education.
Because the proposed laws weren't crazy enough yet, executions!
The Trump-endorsed Republican candidate in South Carolina’s 4th Congressional District called for the arrest and execution of those who advocate for LGBTQ+ rights and the protection of trans children.
During an appearance on The Stew Peters Show, Pastor Mark Burns was asked by host Jane Ruby to commit to voting for transphobic laws that target LGBTQ+ children and their parents and ending what she called “this war on children.” Burns went much further than committing to voting for legislation.
“Not only will I vote to make sure that those parents be held for child abuse because there’s no such thing as trans kids, only abusive parents, period,” Burns responded adding that trans-supportive parents are unnaturally influencing their children’s development.
“I want to make sure that those parents are being held accountable,” Burns continued. “We should start putting some of those parents in jail for abusing their child’s minds, and especially in the school system. Any teacher is [sic] teaching that LGBT, transgenderism, flurries [sic], the groomers, any sexual orientation communication in the school system should be immediately terminated but also be held for abusing young children. Our children should not be born to be indoctrinated. That is 1922 Nazi Germany all over again.”
The comments by Burns echo Republican leadership who have called LGBTQ+ people and allies "groomers" as well as calling gender-affirming health care for trans youth "child abuse."
Burns said the underlying goal of those he called “the LGBT transgender grooming our children’s minds” is to destabilize the country. He said that parents and teachers discuss LGBTQ+ issues with children are a "national security threat" to the U.S.
“That’s why when I’m elected, I don’t want to just vote. I want to start holding people accountable for treason to the Constitution. I am going to push to reenact HUAC,” he said, referring to the House Un-American Activities Committee.
HUAC was the 1938 committee created by U.S. Sen. Samuel Dickstein to investigate the danger of Nazi sympathizers and agents infiltrating the country. It was later used during the Cold War to look for communist infiltration. In the Senate, Sen. Joseph McCarthy held similar hearings in what became known as the Army-McCarthy hearings.
“We need to hold people for treason, start having some public hearings, and start executing people who are found guilty for their treasonous acts against the Constitution of the United States of America,” Burns concluded. “Just like they did back in 1776.”
If MTG is gonna top that, she is going to have to really bring some fucked up crazy.

No Republican running for any office can publicly admit to “believing” in evolution. What would be your impression of a surgeon of any type who questions evolution? The professed political position of Republicans is anti science. I have no respect for anyone who is anti science. Regardless of political affiliation.
