Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene hangs sign mocking congressional neighbor's transgender pride flag in Twitter spat — Greene hung a sign facing Rep. Marie Newman's office that says, "There are TWO genders: MALE & FEMALE. 'Trust The Science.'”
According to The Washington Post, Rep. Newsman’s daughter is transgender.
This is what Rep. Sean Casten tweeted:
Here are the two videos each member of the House posted on Twitter:
Greene reacted to her across the hall neighbor who was showing support and love for the transgender community (including their families and friends). She put the flag out in protest over Greene's opposition to a LGBTQ rights bill. Greene, instead of taking this in stride, decided to double down with a bigoted hateful message of her own. I call that despicable.
With so many despicable choices it it a tough race to the bottom with the likes of Rep. Jim Jordan, Sen. Ted Cruz, and Sen. Ron Johnson jockeying for their place in the winners circle where the worst gets the blanket of flowers.
Lindsay Graham is difficult for me to place in the race but he’s certainly in contention… hmmm, is he truly despicable... possibly...
Lorena “I will take my Glock to Congress” Boebert doesn’t manage to get quite outrageous enough.
It is hard to take Jokes like Devon Nunes who tried to sue Twitter of a parody cow account seriously. Louie Gohmert merely is pitiful. He must be the biggest embarrassment to No. 48 rated Baylor Law School where he got his law degree. It’s where Leon Jaworski received his degree.
All of them bring up the rear in this horse race.
Mitch McConnell manages to ride astride a strange two-headed horse each wanting to go in a different direction. He’s obviously the most powerful, a thoroughbred if you will, but is he despicable?
