Marjorie Taylor Greene Wants Corporations Investigated For NOT Donating To Republicans

During an appearance on Steve Bannon's podcast this week, Marjorie Taylor Greene issued a warning to the corporations that stopped donating to Republicans after the insurrection. The warning was simple: Lawyer up because we're going to investigate you. In Greene's warped mind, NOT giving money to Republicans is apparently some kind of federal crime, and she legitimately wants to haul these companies into Congress and make them explain themselves. This won't go as Greene believes, as Farron Cousins explains.

Apparently there's a new crime here in the United States. I didn't know this crime existed. I didn't know it was something you weren't allowed to do. But according to Marjorie Taylor Green, it is absolutely something that Congress is going to investigate you for not doing, and the crime is apparently not giving money to Republicans. During an appearance on Steve Mann's podcast this week, Marjorie Taylor Green said that she is going to be investigating if Republicans take back the house, they're gonna launch investigations into the corporations that stopped giving money to Republicans following the January 6th capital riot. Now, I'm gonna read what she said in just a moment, but let's make this clear. She wants to launch investigations in the companies that said, We're not gonna give money to Republicans. That's not a crime. Like that's not even a bad thing. That's a good thing. And for the record, before I even read her quote, it's important to remember that near every single company that made the pledge, were not giving money to Republicans anymore.

They all broke it, most of them within three weeks of making the pledge. But nevertheless, green is still about that. So here's what she had to say. Let's just put it like this. You know what they did? After January 6th, Steve, they stopped donating all the lobbyists, all the big corporations stopped donating to a whole bunch of my Republican colleagues that they used to donate to. They said, Oh no, we can't support you because of the big lie or whatever they wanna call it. That's not going to be forgotten by a whole bunch of my Republican colleagues, because that was really ridiculous and wrong. There is going to be investigations coming, and there should be, because the way corporations have conducted themselves, I've always called it corporate communism, sch then went on to say that these same corporations quote probably should get a lawyer, then urge them, urge them after that, stay out of politics and focus on customer service. So now let me get this straight. You're mad that they got out of politics by not donating to Republicans. So you want them investigated for getting out of politics, and your advice to them is get a lawyer and stay out of politics like you want them to do the thing that they did that you think is bad and you want them investigated for, but you want them to keep doing the bad thing. What is in Marjorie Taylor Green's head? I know there's not a brain, so I'm just wondering what is in there?

Is it a little hamster on a wheel and every now and then the hamster gets off the wheel and goes and gets some water and that's when she has these idiotic like brain farts or something? Or is it just filled with rocks and marbles? Like if you shook her head, would you just hear like a sound, like a morra? I, I mean, I genuinely want an answer to that because this woman is not all there, in my opinion. You can't launch investigation. You can't hold corporations into Congress and sit them down and say, Why did you stop giving me money? Me? Do you understand? And maybe I shouldn't even tell her this, but I'm just so like flabbergasted that I have to say this. Like, do you understand how the entire American public is gonna react when you haul these companies in there and you say, I'm mad you stopped giving me money.

The entire public's gonna be like, Hold, hold the hell up like this, this, this is what you're doing. You're literally bringing them into Congress to ask why they're not writing you checks anymore. Congratulations. This is your last term in office ever. Now, having said that, I fully endorse this idea. Like, let's do it. Why not? Right? If Republicans wanna be stupid, let's be stupid. Let's do the dumbest possible things anybody could ever imagine because it's going to cost you everything in the next election cycle. But Marjorie Taylor Green doesn't care. She's not smart enough to think down the road. All she wants, and all a lot of Republicans want is revenge, and that revenge is going to cost them.
