Marjorie Taylor Greene’s recent attack on Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez for being unmarried at 35 is a truly bizarre spectacle. It reveals a startling level of insecurity and projection, especially considering Greene’s own marital history. The irony is thick enough to spread on toast. Greene, herself not currently married, seems to believe that a woman’s worth is somehow intrinsically linked to her marital status.
This isn’t just some fleeting political jab; it’s a glimpse into a worldview that’s deeply rooted in outdated societal expectations. It suggests that Greene feels a profound need to measure herself against another woman, using marriage as the yardstick.… Continue reading

Nancy Mace, a congresswoman who’s gained notoriety for her aggressive attacks on transgender individuals, recently canceled her attendance at a town hall meeting, citing safety concerns. This decision, however, has sparked considerable outrage, with many viewing it as a blatant display of hypocrisy and cowardice. After all, isn’t it ironic that someone who readily dishes out verbal abuse and, some would argue, actively contributes to a climate of fear and hostility towards a vulnerable population, would suddenly claim to be a victim of threats herself?
The claim that the town hall was unsafe, that it was being orchestrated by “left-wing extremists and paid agitators,” feels hollow in light of Mace’s own aggressive rhetoric.… Continue reading
