Can’t we split the difference? Let’s all hope she gets bad diarrhea next weekend. ---

In response to the arrest of the man threatening to kill Taylor Greene, [I’ll just say:](https://www.businessinsider.com/mcgovern-blasts-marjorie-taylor-greene-tweet-nancy-paul-pelosi-attack-2022-10) > These attacks should not happen. They should not happen to ME. Because it’s all about ME. ---

> [@Eric1](#): > > I felt a strange twinge of pity for MTG, though I share no views with her, because some flipped-out dude had threatened her over phone, as she reported to NBC yesterday. If that actually happened, I feel a little sympathy for her. Nobody should be subjected to threats. It is a criminal act, and she should be protected from it under the law. If that actually happened, If. Let’s not forget that she is a) a pathological liar who continually distorts everything, and b) a deeply paranoid lunatic who thinks that people are spying on her through her TV. ---

Yeah, calling for the murder of elected officials is definitely something MTG would be against. Oh wait… [Marjorie Taylor Greene indicated support for executing prominent Democrats in 2018 and 2019 before running for Congress | CNN Politics](https://www.cnn.com/2021/01/26/politics/marjorie-taylor-greene-democrats-violence/index.html) ---

MTG must pay $100,000 fine, says SCOTUS. [She got the fine some time ago.](https://www.businessinsider.com/republicans-andrew-clyde-mtg-fined-100000-defying-mask-mandate-2021-12?r=US&IR=T) She has made numerous appeals against the ruling ever since.

And just to make it clear, the fine was $500 per infraction, and totaled more than $100,000. No more appeals. ---

For clarification, it isn’t that she has to pay the money to someone, but the salary paid to her is reduced by $100,000. She’s going to lose it, 100% certainty. ---

Huh, I thought the new posts in this thread would be about how MTG is currently trending on Twitter, after she called for Judge Engoron to be “disrobed” over the $355 million civil fraud judgment against Trump. Yes, she actually used the word “disrobed”. Well, we all have our fantasies… ---
