It’s a known fact that most fentanyl abusers started using because of Democratic presidents. They use the Jewish space lasers to get people addicted.

And to be fair, that’s often how law enforcement figures how much they aren’t catching.

Which means that as they get better at enforcement, and catch more smugglers, the smuggling problem gets worse, and so they need more money for enforcement to catch all these additional smugglers.

It absolutely is a deceptive use of statistics, but I don’t know that MTG gets credit for originating it.

I wonder Perry Taylor Greene will come out with a memoir. He might as well cash in.

Incidentally, this was my outfit for a Purim play when I was young. I’m pretty sure I could have been arrested in the Bible Belt for this get-up 😉

So she leaked (allegedly) confidential information that turned out to be utter bullshit. Sounds about right.

I assumed, but thought some context would help. Although I’m still not clear on whether she was dumb enough to reveal actual confidential information on top of all the other dumb things she did in connection to this story.

So, what do we or officials think it was actually for? Weight for the end of a rope that would be thrown? Sinker/anchor for holding something in water? It probably had some totally innocuous use (but probably not literally for sack hackeying).

Rope weight would be my guess.

From the article:

> Greene wrote: “If the device in question was just filled with sand then why would Chief Ortiz tell me during his testimony that he was briefed about it in a SCIF and couldn’t comment on classified information, then turn around afterwards and tweet a picture of it claiming it was filled with sand?”

I have to wonder how what she uses for a mind actually works. Perhaps (now, I’m just guessing here), Ortiz told her during his questioning that he was briefed about it in a SCIF because he was asked a direct question concerning it and, being classified information, he could not comment on it, because what he testified to was, you know, the truth. Afterwards, perhaps, the photo and composition of the object was declassified (some people are said to have the ability to do that with just their mind), Ortiz tweeted that information so people could understand that, contrary to MTG’s babbling, there is not evidence that Mexico is trying to bomb the US and that “The Biden Administration” is not hiding it from the American People.

I’ve just found this sooper secret photo of the actual bomb maker! Perhaps Empty Greene can get in front of another committee to share this devastating evidence!

Exactly, it looked like a cartoon bomb. Real life bombs don’t look like that. At one time they did (well over a century ago), but even then that was something that would likely have been fired from a mortar with a slow-burning fuse. Not something smuggled in for terrorism.

In MTG’s crazy world, cartoons are real and the scary foreigners are trying to kill us with:
