Sounds good to me?
Just make them all public all the time! That'll show those fucking libs.
As a liberal I would be so fucking owned by this
I don't care if they are Republican or Democrat. If they are criminals, they should go to jail. Release the Epstein files and send Bill and Trump to jail.
Thats the thing I don't think they get.
"Ok, well our guy will go to jail, but so will yours!!!"
"That's fine."
"But then we BOTH lose!"
"This isn't a MAD doctrine situation. This is supposed to be more like a scorched earth situation. No corruption left behind."
And I don't think they grasp that.
What they don't grasp is that we'd send our guy to jail: because they won't.
That's the difference.
When a corrupt democrat is exposed they're expelled (bye bye Cuomo)
When a corrupt republican is exposed they're re-elected.

Let me stretch first. Don't want to pull anything.
I'm kinda with you... Like, let them fight?
I think she meant this as a threat to get the party in line, but i can't see any way this doesn't blow up in their faces. If the leopards are eating leopard faces, will they notice mine..?

This argument reveals that she thinks both sides are playing the same game. Progressives don't support corrupt leaders. MTG does.
Then who is supporting Nancy Pelosi?
Quip aside, let's bring on the sunlight.
Honestly don't know anyone that likes Pelosi.
I don't know why anyone likes neoliberals.
She's a model one.

I vote blue with my nose held as always for harm reduction, but neoliberals like Pelosi are why so many actual leftwing people that want a society walked away, they have no party that isnt enthusiastically part of the root problem of maintaining crony market capitalism at society's catastrophic expense.

Deal
Edit: no takebacks
Don’t threaten me with a good time.
The amount of cognitive dissonance I got from reading something MTG said that I actually agree with was nuts
I feel you. I have this new super bitch of a boss, but she wore cute pants one day in September and it left me conflicted. I'm still pissed off about it.
As in the pants were cute or she was cute in them cuz it's completely okay to like a pair of pants and not enjoy the person who's in them.

"For my Republican colleagues in the House and Senate, If we are going to release ethics reports and rip apart our own that Trump has appointed, then put it ALL out there for the American people to see. Yes.. all the ethics reports and claims including the one I filed, all your sexual harassment and assault claims that were secretly settled paying off victims with tax payer money, the entire Jeffrey Epstein files, tapes, recordings, witness interviews. But not just those, there's more, Epstein wasn't/isn't the only asset. If we're going to dance, let's all dance in the sunlight. I'll make sure we do," the lawmaker said in a post on X.
Interesting, she's going the Madison Crawthorn route. Remember what happened to him? They dished up all the dirt they could find on him and hung him out to dry. This sounds noble of her, but she's using this as a threat to try to force them not to go after Gaetz, her pedophile buddy.
That is what the FBI does.
That and get paid by Russians to ruin the body politic by telling the USA that there was no trouble between Trump and Russia right before election.

The tweet in question to save you the click.
The replies are hilarious. Everyone is 100% in favor of this idea, but the MAGA dipshits don't realize she's literally only doing this to protect a pedophile sex trafficker.
So, MTGs plan is to call out the entire Republican party as corrupt and rally her supporters to air their dirty laundry to the public. Truly fantastic, MTG. Please don't let anyone talk you out of it.
Am..Am I agreeing with Marjorie Taylor Greene?
Is..Is Marjorie Taylor Greene making smart, intelligent, good points?
We really are in bizarro world.
When Democrat politicians fuck up, other Democrats will absolutely call for, and get, resignations. Even things that boil down to consenting adults in privacy can result in resignations when it's seen to compromise a politician.
When Republicans fuck up, the party circles the wagons and goes full defensive. They will absolutely fight to resist any calls to resign, using any tactic they can think of to keep their latest pedo/pervert/con man/criminal in power. Only if the evidence is incontrovertible, and the outcry impossible to ignore, will they ever consider resignation, and as we've seen with Gaetz, that's not even necessarily the end of their career.
MTG is exactly the kind of brainlet to think that Democrats work the same way Republicans do. She thinks "Release all the Ethics reports" will make Democrats back down, or at least intimidate them. A party agreeing to release ethics reports relating to their own people is utterly unthinkable to her.

I don't think this is as stupid as it sounds. With some exceptions Democratic voters tend to punish their representatives for corruption, but republican voters never do
So you're saying she's betting that while republicans will have significantly more corruption, democrats will be the only ones punished because their voter base is the only one that actually cares? Honestly, you could very well be right about the result of a hypothetical universal ethic report release, though I'd be surprised if MTG was smart enough to think 2 steps ahead like that.

Ok.
Do it.
The overwhelming problem is that the Dems tend to hold their members accountable while the republicans absolutely DGAF and happily keep literal criminals in their ranks.
She’s basically acknowledging there’s plenty of dirt, but the only offenses they’ll care about is their opponents’.

Even a broken clock is right twice a day...
She's trying to extort her fellow Republicans into not releasing the report, not realizing that the public is saying, "HELL YEAH!" at the suggestion. What's sad is it might actually work, and they won't release anything.
...yes
Does she think this is a burn? It’s absolutely what should happen.
For once I agree with this ghoul.
fuckin do it. don't threaten me with a good time.
edit word
Y'all are missing the implication of this. These comments think it's the public she's talking to here. She's talking to other Congress people with skeletons in their closets.
makes popcorn
What? Can't a man just make popcorn without it IMMEDIATELY being assumed to be a statement reflecting the imminent surge of corrupt behavior all coming to light across the entire GOP side due to MTG's own suggestion?
Are you saying I'm only making popcorn because I will treat this as an entertaining movie watching the cockroaches skuttle?
..........I mean, you're right, but daaaaamn. Why you gotta out me like that?
