That our highest levels of government spend time engaging in high school drama should be terrifying to all Americans.

It has been for awhile now. That's why we should vote out who is spending time talking about eyelashes rather than issues.

Would be nice if her district actually did that

Vote in high-schoolers, you get high-schoolers.

This is drag queen dozens, not high school drama.

She’s up for reelection Nov 5, 2024. If she loses then her last day will be Jan 3, 2025. Georgia please elect someone better. It’s a very low bar.

Sadly, they won't. This kind of belligerent stupidity is exactly what the majority of voters in her district love to see. The arseholes who vote for her are gleefully fucking over the entire country because they think this kind of shit equates to "OwNiNg tHe LiBs!!1!"

I don't think it's hopeless-- her numbers are down overall since her first term:

Greene ran for re-election after winning a legal challenge to her eligibility based on her alleged involvement in organizing and promoting the 2021 United States Capitol attack, based on the Fourteenth Amendment to the United States Constitution, which bars people who have engaged in insurrection from serving in Congress. While Greene won by a comfortable margin, this was the worst showing ever by a Republican in the 14th district, and the best performance of a Democrat in this district, being the first time since the district was created that the Democrat received more than 28% of the vote.

So while a dem is never getting that seat, it could be an indication that she's losing support overall from her base, who just might be tired of her shit and want a more competent republican to fuck them over instead. Most of the people she beat in the 2022 primaries sound at least a little more impressive than part time crossfit coach and conspiracy nutjob, so maybe someone else will have a chance in November.

GOP primary 2022:

Eric Cunningham, sales executive
James Haygood, farmer
Charles Lutin, physician and veteran
Jennifer Strahan, CEO of J. Osley & Co.
Seth Synstelien, educator

Started the fire then acts like everyone needs to calm down.

It's called gaslighting and she's a bitch for doing it

You can see her smile to herself as well. She realized she successfully baited them. To her audience, nothing else matters in that conversation; she "won."

Fucking childish bullshit. Like come on. You literally represent people's interests for their lives.

I'm Canadian and have watched Parliament meetings, it's like watching a bunch of angry kids yelling insults at each other. It's such a shit show
