But because she is white, evangelical, and a woman--a rich one at that--Marjorie Taylor Greene is not in an orange jumpsuit locked but is instead a member of the House of Representatives in the most powerful country in the world.
Marjorie Taylor Greene was dangerous and vile long before she was elected but because much of her vileness was directed at Muslims, Black people, and Jews, Republicans shrugged and carried on being the craven shits they are, happy to throw weight behind anyone who brings votes.
#ThisIs53: it is not my birthday. I want you to see a 53yo woman. I’m saying “Here is a middle aged woman. Look,”at a time when it seems that every time I look away, my body has changed.
My belly nods at her belly, knowingly; in the way that when you’re the only person of colour in a white space you nod knowingly when you see another person of colour. I see a middle aged, cisgender Egyptian woman, like me. And I nod, knowingly
Earlier this year, I started posting photographs of myself on social media with the caption “#ThisIs53. It is not my birthday. I want you to see a 53 year old woman.”
I wanted to be seen. Not to be told, as I often have, that I don’t “look my age.” That is not the compliment some people think it is. But to say “Here is a middle aged woman. Look,” at a time when it seems that every time I look away, my body has changed.
The predictably-craven Republican leadership initially backed MTG and #LaurenBoebert’s male GOP opponents because party leaders thought the two women were extremists who did not stand a chance in primaries. feministgiant.com/p/a-white-supr…
If Trump could give birth, it would have been to Marjorie Taylor Greene and Lauren Boebert, both of whom are clearly created in his image.
They walk like Trump; they talk like Trump. And they hate like Trump. #LaurenBoebert
The GOP has long been a party of white supremacy, misogyny, Islamophobia, and other oppressions. And GOP women understand the very specific role they play to maintain it. They are also learning that to succeed vs the boys, they must outdo the boys in hate-- enter MT and #Boebert.
I have NOTHING to say to those Orwellian fucks who are suddenly “My body, my choice” to excuse being anti-vaxxers & anti-mask but who never said that about abortion as I say here from May 2020 🎥 @rerutled
