Greene’s stance contrasts sharply with her previous actions, including attempts to block an ethics investigation into former Representative Matt Gaetz, who faced similar accusations. The timing of Greene’s comments and her past actions have prompted criticism on social media.
At a rally outside the Supreme Court preceding oral arguments in *US v Skrmetti*, Marjorie Taylor Greene faced significant backlash for her anti-transgender remarks.

Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, appointed by Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy to lead a new House subcommittee on government efficiency, plans to target programs perceived as wasteful, including NPR, despite its minimal direct federal funding. Greene’s proposed cuts reflect a misunderstanding of government budgeting, according to experts, who note that the plan to eliminate programs with lapsed authorizations is overly simplistic and inaccurate. This approach ignores the complexities of funding and the actual allocation of government resources. The initiative’s focus on eliminating perceived waste, however, has already generated significant online attention.

Greene’s actions are a direct response to a pending House Ethics Committee report on Gaetz detailing allegations of sexual misconduct. This internal battle highlights deep divisions within the Republican Party as it prepares to control the White House, Congress, and the judiciary.

It suggests an intriguing strategic dynamic, perhaps a calculated attempt to shake up the existing political landscape.… Continue reading
