Marjorie Taylor Greene embarrasses herself again

[Faun]

Embarrassed herself....
Nah....you got it all wrong...she distinguished herself you mean.

Her description of the psuedo holy day is aggressive yes....but not at all innacurate.

Soooo you don't like it when she acts just like AOC eh?

Jo

Of course it's inaccurate. Kwanzaa is not a religion.

 

[justoffal]

Of course it's inaccurate. Kwanzaa is not a religion.

Not a religious organization...
The loose use of the word however is really no different than calling a Trump voter a cultist. We allow what pleases us.

 

[candycorn]

Marjorie Taylor Greene embarrasses herself again calling Kwanzaa a " fake religion created by a psychopath ". This woman is beyond just playing ignorant, she is hatefully ignorant with an emphasis on super hatred towards anyone who is different than her white self. 1. Kwanzaa is not a religion, 2. Kwanzaa is cultural holiday to celebrate African-American heritage. Once again she doesn't know what she's talking about. Remember the adage, " It's better to remain silent and be thought a fool; then to open one's mouth and remove all doubt. " This woman should never speak another word for the rest of her life.

It wasn't loosely used. She called it a fake religion. It's in no way a religion in any sense, fake or not. It's a celebration.

It was loosely used the very same way the word cultist is constantly " loosely" used. You're trying to box something for the unrelated purpose of driving a value judgement. The effort is simply too clumsy.

It is a fake Holiday created by a Psychopath.

MJT is a bombastic speaker....I like that myself...her characterization of the annual event is rather aggressive but it reaches her Target audience the same way AOC does by saying of Republican men " they just want to **** me ". Bombast had become the modus operandi of choice these days....lefty only dislikes it when he's not the one doing it.

 

[rightwinger]

Regardless of your hate for the right, she has 1st amendment rights to freedom of speech.

And she is not being prosecuted for what she says

The First Amendment does not say a private company cannot set rules of behavior

Great, then what's fake about it?

 

[Jets]

Rep Greene could care less whether she embarrasses herself or not. Her fundraising tends to climb regardless…

 

[Delldude]

I think she's a psychopath like her little tin god trump.

He he he.......she sure gets all the clowns on the left up in a hissy fit whenever she says something.

That's worth the price of admission.

 

[San Souci]

Great, then what's fake about it?

Kwanza? It is ALL fake. No such thing. Fake like "Blacking" some movies like "The Wiz" and "Blacula".

Well, they kicked MTG off of Twitter so we won't be hearing from her again.

 

[Foolardi]

Listened to her yesterday at about this time on the Charley Kirk
Radio show.Talk radio format.She was direct and full of useful info.
She along with Louie Gohmert took great strides in making sure
they got into the D.C. Jail where around 40 January 6th " Insurrectionists "
are being held.There was another Pol also.Earlier in the year Greene,Gohmert
Matt Gaetz and Paul Gosar tried twice w/o luck to visit the Jail.
So they decided to make an issue of it for good reason.Writing Congressional
Letters to both the D.C. Mayors office and also the D.C. Department of Corrections
and staff.They finally in early December were given a go.
But even then they were hampered.Given a lenghty tour { around 2 hrs. }
and tried to end it w/o meeting a single prisoner.But meet the prisoners
they did as it was roundly appreciated and made their day.Their life.
Being deinied basic common decency and visitation,up till then.
Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene released her Report titled :
" Unusually Cruel: An Eyewitness Report from Inside the DC Jail ".
But to hear her tell it was music to me ears.She was specific,yet
upset and outraged and also rational.What she said Needed to he heard.
It did not lack candor or Emotion.

You have the right to listen to her insanity if you want I'm sick of it, thank God she's off Twitter now if they'll just work on the rest of the crazy loons it would be great. And I know there's crazy people on both sides there's a whole lot more of them on the far right than there is on the far left.

Kwanzaa was created by Maulana Ndabezitha Karenga (formerly Ronald McKinley Everett) who is a black activist. He created the black nationalist movement and clashed violently with the Black Panthers. He was convicted of felony assault, torture and false imprisonment. Somehow this POS got a doctorate in political science and something called 'social ethics.' Karenga created Kwanzaa to "give blacks an alternative to the existing holiday and give blacks an opportunity to celebrate themselves and their history, rather than simply imitate the practice of the dominant society"

So, Kwanzaa represents a segregationist black movement in order to deny the American tradition of Christmas based on a modern racist fairy tale.

More on this POS Karenga...

Criminal conviction and imprisonment​

In 1971, Karenga was sentenced to one to ten years in prison on counts of felony assault and false imprisonment.[16] One of the victims gave testimony of how Karenga and other men tortured her and another woman. The woman described having been stripped naked and beaten with an electrical cord. Karenga's estranged wife, Brenda Lorraine Karenga, testified that she sat on the other woman's stomach while another man forced water into her mouth through a hose.

A May 14, 1971, article in the Los Angeles Times described the testimony of one of the women:

Deborah Jones, who once was given the Swahili title of an African queen, said she and Gail Davis were whipped with an electrical cord and beaten with a karate baton after being ordered to remove their clothes. She testified that a hot soldering iron was placed in Miss Davis' mouth and placed against Miss Davis' face and that one of her own big toes was tightened in a vise. Karenga, head of US, also put detergent and running hoses in their mouths, she said. They also were hit on the heads with toasters.[17]

Jones and Brenda Karenga testified that Karenga believed the women were conspiring to poison him, which Davis has attributed to a combination of ongoing police pressure and his own drug abuse.[4][18]

Karenga denied any involvement in the torture, and argued that the prosecution was political in nature.[4][19] He was imprisoned at the California Men's Colony, where he studied and wrote on feminism, Pan-Africanism, and other subjects. The US Organization fell into disarray during his absence and was disbanded in 1974. After he petitioned several black state officials to support his parole on fair sentencing grounds, it was granted in 1975.[20]

Karenga has declined to discuss the convictions with reporters and does not mention them in biographical materials.[18] During a 2007 appearance at Wabash College, he again denied the charges and described himself as a former political prisoner.[21]

Kwanza is a newly created holiday / celebration. It's just something someone pulled out of thin air. There's no historical context to this faux holiday.

Yes, it was created by an ex-felon. Read my post #238.
