On Wednesday evening, Republican Representatives Marjorie Taylor Greene and Dan Crenshaw got into a bitter fight on Twitter over the Ukraine aide package, and the fight quickly turned to personal insults and accusations. Crenshaw pointed out that Greene was clearly on the side of Russia, while Greene accused Crenshaw of ignoring problems here at home. Farron Cousins explains how both of these idiots managed to be completely wrong about almost everything.

You know, there's not a lot of fun things that happen in this line of work. A lot of it's depressing. A lot of it is very stupid, but this week we actually had a fun moment where two top name Republican representatives started going at each other's throats on Twitter. And those Republicans of course, were Marjorie Taylor green on one side. And in the other corner, Dan Crenshaw representative from one of the most gerrymandered districts in the state of Texas and Crenshaw, believe it or not actually kind of emerged as, I guess what you would call the, the good guy in the fight, even though he's still a radical extremist in my view. And a lot of what he said was in fact, factually wrong, but here is the exchange that started it all Crenshaw was replying to a Twitter troll and Crenshaw said this, uh, investing in the destruction of our adversaries military without losing a single American troop strikes me as a good idea.

You should feel the same. And this is of course, in response to Crenshaw talking about the 40 billion in aid that the United States has agreed to send to Ukraine this week. So Marjorie Taylor green, who was not mentioned in that conversation, picked up on Crenshaw's conversation and tweeted this in response. So you think we are funding a proxy war with Russia. You speak as if Ukrainian lives should be thrown away as if they have no value just used and thrown away for your proxy war. How does that help Americans? How does any of this help to which Crenshaw responded simply still going after that slot on Russia today? Huh? And then Marjorie Taylor green got and she said, sanctions aren't stopping anything, but they are driving inflation and fuel prices. I refuse to vote for useless measures that cause problems, but solve none. While you send 40 billion for your proxy war against Russia, I'm focused on baby formula for American babies.

Okay. A lot of wrong things from both people here, Marjorie Taylor green, of course, being far more wrong than Dan Crenshaw. Although it is nice to see that clearly she's learned the phrase proxy war this week, cuz she said it in four sentences, three times. So good for you Marjorie, you learned a new term, you get a gold star by your name. Uh, here's the thing Dan Crenshaw is out there boasting like ha ha ha. We're toppling our adversary. Yeah. That's really not a good point to be making cuz you are in fact confirming that the United States is somehow fighting this fight, as you say, without having troops on the ground, which yeah, it's great. We don't have troops over there, but if you're admitting that the United States is actively trying for regime change in Russia, that's not a good thing. Yes. Putin is terrible. Putin's a horrible human being. Putin kills his own people. Um, but it should

Not be our responsibility to Deone him. Right? We we've seen that story play out, not just with the United States foreign in policy actions, but with other countries doing it as well. And it never ends well for anybody. That's a bad thing that we do not want. Even if Putin is a horrible human being that shouldn't be in power, but that's not our place. We can't do this. We can't be the world police. But then I have to say this Marjorie Taylor green suddenly acting like cuz Ukraine lives don't matter to you. What, what are you talking about? He just voted for the age aid package that you voted against. They don't matter to you. You've been on Putin side clearly throughout this whole thing. So I don't understand that. And then she says like I'm focused on baby formula and American babies. Oh really? So as a member of the house of representatives, I would love to see the legislation you've put forward.

Oh, oh you haven't done that. I'm so sorry. Here. I am thinking that you actually had power as a sitting member of the house of representatives to do something about the baby formula shortage. But in reality, you're just about it on Twitter. I wouldn't, I wouldn't say that that's focused on, you're trying to use it as a talking point to blame Biden for something he has no control over when
