Tweet from Marjorie Taylor Greene;

Republicans will need to refuse to appropriate any funding to Merrick Garland’s Special Counsel and defund any part of the DOJ acting on behalf of the Democrat party as a taxpayer funded campaign arm for the Democrat’s 2024 presidential nominee.

4. I'm thinking what's wrong with her is that she's about to get caught.

I don't know if she was the pipe bomb planter, but I'm betting her grubby fingers are all over the place, too. Got to deflect and distract in order to protect herself, Dear Leader, and all of his other toadies. Anything to keep it from coming out that she was an accessory. That, and she's just a fucking criminal nutjob.

all your bluster and threats are pointless since your party couldn't take the Senate and, well, Dark Brandon is firmly ensconced in the White House. Sure you will conduct all sorts of bogus investigations, but in the end, you and the rest of the GQP traitors are nothing more than annoying, tiresome little gnats buzzing around the body politic.

but she is right. Trump infected and destroyed our entire government starting with the DOJ. If we don't have laws (because Trump and his minions are above it) why just pretend we do and have a DOJ that sat on its ass forever. Give the savings to rich people for Pete's sake.
