She has made it her mission to serve as the Republican Party&#8217;s Chief Apologist and Asswipe for Donald Trump. And no one can dispute her allegiance to that assignment.<\/p>\n<p><strong>SEE THIS: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.newscorpse.com\/ncWP\/?p=57920\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Adam Schiff Shames the GOP for its \u2018Willingness to Debase Themselves in the Service of Trump\u2019<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>On Sunday Greene spoke out on behalf of her Dear Leader to praise a court ruling that she thinks prohibits President Biden and the Democrats from responding to the flagrant disinformation that is dispensed by Trump and his GOP propaganda machine. Her remarks in a <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/RepMTG\/status\/1700925240673546520\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">tweet<\/a> referenced the decision by the 5th Circuit Court of Appeals that actually narrowed a prior ruling.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><strong>Greene:<\/strong> &#8220;The Communist Democrats abuse their power and violate the rights of Americans in order to achieve their agenda. Their ends always justify their means. We cannot continue as a free society with Communists controlling our government.&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>It has become routine for Trumpy Republicans to exhibit their idiocy by proudly demonstrating that they have no idea what the words <em>&#8220;communism, socialism,&#8221;<\/em> and <em>&#8220;fascism&#8221;<\/em> mean. They regularly misuse these terms in attempts to insult Democrats and President Biden. However, if you were to ask them to define the terms, it is sure bet that they would not be able to. Just the fact that they think that fascism is synonymous to the other terms is proof of their flaming illiteracy.<\/p>\n<p>What&#8217;s more, there is nothing that remotely aligns the Democrats views about this court ruling with communism. To the contrary, Democrats are staunch supporters of free speech and a free press, which Trump maligns as <em>&#8220;the enemy of the people.&#8221;<\/em> And <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.newscorpse.com\/ncWP\/?p=56302\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">only Trump and the GOP have ever actually threatened to <em>&#8220;shut down&#8221;<\/em> social media<\/a><\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>If Greene is looking for a prominent politician who embraces communism, she need look no further than her mango messiah, Trump. His infatuation with Russian war criminal, Vladimir Putin, and his love letters with North Korean dictator, Kim Jong Un, and his admiration for China&#8217;s Xi Jinping, show who the true commie lover (or at least totalitarian tyrant) is.<\/p>\n<p>For the record, the court <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.usatoday.com\/story\/money\/2023\/09\/08\/biden-administration-coerced-facebook-court-rules\/70800723007\/\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">decision<\/a><\/strong> that Greene is celebrating is a conservative appellate ruling that strikes down part of an even more conservative ruling that prohibited the Biden administration from interacting with social media. It was triggered by requests that federal agencies made to Facebook, YouTube, and Twitter to consider taking down disinformation about COVID and election integrity. These were clearly requests &#8211; not demands &#8211; that anyone is entitled to make, even the government. In fact, the government is duty bound to make such requests when dangerously wrong data is found to be circulating.<\/p>\n<p>The original ruling was preposterous and overbroad, as the appellate court stated. But even the appellate court&#8217;s mitigation was out of line, and their decision is likely to be appealed as well. The Department of Justice responded that it <em>&#8220;will evaluate its options,&#8221;<\/em> and elaborated saying that&#8230;<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>&#8220;This administration has promoted responsible actions to protect public health, safety, and security when confronted by challenges like a deadly pandemic and foreign attacks on our elections. Our consistent view remains that social media platforms have a critical responsibility to take account of the effects their platforms are having on the American people, but make independent choices about the information they present.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Greene&#8217;s inability to coherently assess the legal complexities of this issue should not surprise anyone. Some of her own colleagues don&#8217;t respect her. On Sunday morning, GOP Judiciary Committee member, Ken Buck, was interviewed by Jen Psaki on MSNBC about Greene&#8217;s obsession with impeaching President Biden. Buck smacked her down as <em>&#8220;absurd&#8221;<\/em> saying that&#8230;<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>&#8220;Marjorie filed articles of impeachment on President Biden before he was sworn into office more than two and a half years ago. So the idea that she is now the expert on impeachment, or that she is someone who should set the timing on impeachment is absurd. The time for impeachment is the time when there&#8217;s evidence linking &#8211; if there&#8217;s evidence &#8211; linking President Biden to a high crime or misdemeanor. That doesn&#8217;t exist right now.&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Buck: Marjorie filed impeachment articles on Biden before he was sworn into office..
