Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) made clear on Saturday afternoon that she has no intention of taking her own life after making the case for the release of the Jeffrey Epstein files.
The controversial conservative lawmaker appeared to be making the case that a “foreign government or powerful people” would attempt to silence her permanently to halt her efforts and, should she be found dead like the convicted pedophile in his jail cell, there needs to be an investigation.
Three hours later, she hinted that she fears for her life.
She wrote,” I am not suicidal and one of the happiest healthiest people you will meet. I have full faith in God and Jesus Christ is my Lord and Savior. As a sinner, I am only saved through His grace and mercy. With that said, if something happens to me, I ask you all to find out which foreign government or powerful people would take heinous actions to stop the information from coming out. Not only about this issue, but because of the truth that I have been speaking. The People understand what I’m saying.”
Meanwhile Candace Owens seems to be implying today that Charlie Kirk’s accused assassin is also at risk of being Epsteined
I hate to say this bc of all the insane conspiracy theories I’ve heard these two spout, but I feel like there is a decent chance these both might be legit concerns, but they’ve cried wolf (or Jewish space lasers) so many times in the past, nobody is taking them seriously now.
Nothing will happen, but if MTG does it offed because of the Epstein files. Then we are in interesting times.
I’m sure it will be blamed on the libs.
'We are all afraid’: Murkowski says fear of retaliation from Trump administration is ‘real’
Remember this from back in April? I just thought she meant they might try to sabotage her re-election…
if … X … Then we are in interesting times.
To be honest, I think we passed that threshold some ways back now. I’d say we are pretty deep into “interesting times”.
Of course they are legitimate concerns. Epstein was a warning, they can get anyone anywhere. They got Kirk, and they can get anyone.
Alleged assasins of fascist icons seem to have a weird habit of killing themselves before they can be questioned properly about anything
The only ones who would harm her over this would be other Republicans. I wish she would let that sink in, because she’s spent her career propping them up.
Israel.
lived like a tool and might die like a tool
My instinct is typically to never trust anything that comes out of the bitch’s mouth.
But given her saying this implicates the assholes she typically enthusiastically cheerleads, I’m more inclined to take it as legit.

Is this the first time a sitting member of the U.S. Congress has said something like this?
It’s entirely performative, she’s not a threat, she doesn’t have enough power or knowledge about anything, nobody cares, she just wants her base to think she’s some kind of political John Wick.
Conservatives thrive and subsist entirely on narratives and feelings, so this kind of performance is what keeps them going. We can’t stop it, we can’t make them start using their minds instead of their movie-brains, so we have to start learning to perform in different ways to swing their fickle, wandering attention spans and toddler-like emotions where we want them.
in public, but the have all been threatened by Miller’s Brownshirts.
the message was sent long ago.

I would take this as the moment they fell in line:
The train carrying members of Congress to a Republican retreat in West Virginia last month struck a garbage truck that had entered a railroad crossing after safety gates had come down, according to a new report released Wednesday.
Authorities identified the person killed as Christopher Foley, 28, of Louisa County, Va., one of two passengers inside the truck. The other passenger, still unidentified, was airlifted to the University of Virginia Medical Center with critical injuries.
The truck’s driver, also still unidentified, was transported to a hospital with serious injuries, according to Madeline Curott, public information officer of the Albemarle County, Va., police department.

The driver of the truck was transported by ground in serious condition. President Donald Trump had said Wednesday afternoon that the driver of the truck had been killed.
Marshall later told MSNBC that he first tried to help the deceased victim but “couldn’t find a pulse, so we started CPR and worked on that person for several, several minutes, and [it] just didn’t go real well for that gentlemen.”
You’re implying Trump caused this?
I’m implying trump is capable as has been demonstrated by his exbff pootiepoot.
It seems odd that a truck would pull onto the tracks after the gates were down.
A train carrying half of congress.
And that trump would specifically mention the death of driver.
I believe it is possible, and likely, that he had some part in this, though, yes.
(I actually meant to reply to another comment in this thread about another senator who has expressed great fear of retribution among her and her colleagues. )
Girl you’re not important enough to kill. You think you’re so relevant cause you talk loud, you’re not
Broken clocks and whatnot…
So she really drank the kool aid and now they can’t handle her and lost control?
She brought the Kool-aid with her.
Why not ask her man Trump to protect her from those threats?
On a completely unrelated topic, I wonder if she’s looking to redo the windows on her house?
Anything to stay in the news cycle.
Who cares about shameless attention seekers like MTG and Candace Owens?
This is just media friendly paranoia designed by their publicity teams for public consumption.
is Candice Owens still around?
