I never thought I'd be saying this, but I think it's a bad thing that she's quitting. It is going to show any other Republican that dares stand up to Trump that they ultimately get whacked down.

Am I wrong????

"Take your money and run" to Georgia to run for Governor maybe.

Just like all the other DC Republican Politicians, it has been reported that she used insider information in the past number of years to amass a small fortune. She entered the House worth around 700K? and she is leaving with a reported 25 Million? During Trump's first occupation of the White House, during covid, and these past 10+ months there have been some ludicrous FORTUNES made by the already rich, the wannabe rich, Politicans and the well connected....they don't even try to keep their grifting/looting secret any more.....

WASF

I have no illusions as to this woman and I have not believed her recent change of heart one iota. It would take a very, very long time for her to redeem herself in my eyes. I still remember her treatment of Biden, and the many reporters that she was ugly and rude toward.

But I don't think she would give up a seat now in order to run for Governor. She would want to continue to have the platform in Congress to start campaigning. Just my two cents...

Will I ever cut them ANY slack, that goes for all of them Pence, Cheney, etc

They all were in lockstep, arm in arm, corruptly installing Trump into power, AND keeping him there.....day by day, year by year, for the last 9 years.....
Now they are finally all realizing they created a modern day Frankenstein's monster, and they lost control of him. In fact he is controlling all of them....

I want her out of politics, out of the news, out of sight, out of mind.

he protected her but once McCarthy was ousted and resigned she had no cover ..and when Jasmine Crockett, AOC ,and Jared Moskowitz turned Greene and her crazy talk into comedic punchlines, porn monitor/Trump ass-kisser Mike Johnson wanted her out..

her sudden transformation from Jewish space lasers to advocating for the release of the Epstein files and voicing her disdain for the shutdown prompted Trump to rip her to shreds on his social platform , “inviting” his violent MAGA militia to terrorize her into silence…and just like that she was done…

She starts her presidential exploratory committee on Jan. 6. Bet on it.

She's resigning two days after she's eligible for her congressional pension. Her net worth has increased 10x, so she's made all the money she's going to out of being in Congress,

Now she has time to say "I'm not like all those other politicians. When they weren't working for you, but only themselves, I noped right out of there." She'll travel and do rallies to take her "outsider" message directly to the people. She'll start a podcast. "If only I were president, I could fix this. They don't care about you and your concerns, but I do."

And then, reluctantly, because no one else is looking out for the little guy, she'll agree to run. For you. For America.

Don't get me wrong, she's still a complete frickin' lunatic, and will be still in 2028. Even in that miles long statement she released she couldn't resist talking about Covid tyranny, so yeah, she's nuts. But she got a facelift and better clothes. She's learning how to moderate her speaking style to appeal to non Maga. She's running.

I could see her thinking that she wants to be president.

I hope for her sake that she really has changed.

would have meant a thing. And during her tenure, was there any action on her part to do anything about those things she is suddenly whining about? As to the common people, what did she do to help anybody but herself? She going to give back any of that insider trading money? All she did was enrich herself. I'd love to see how much of her income she has given pack to the "common people".

She is a phony, has always been a phony and will forever remain a phony.

It would be nice if she was able to learn anything that’s all. The chances may be slim.

of a successful businessman down there in Georgia (her dad was some sort of contractor & sold the business to her first husband). She graduated from the University of Georgia, not nearly as dumb as she looks. She lives in an uber-red area and she is MAGA to the core. She wants to be queen of the MAGA, but I'm not sure they'll vote for a woman, even if it's her. At least not for president, maybe for governor or senator.

She's up to something.

Wow! Never saw this coming!

But according to Google AI:

We have seen such a huge turn-around from her in the last few months. I'd like to think she's going to give up politics, but I wonder if she has something else in her sights.

You know, the workers's money (or credit line, rather).

But not necessarily thinking she can win. More likely a revenge candidate to prove she is the MAGA-ist is MAGA of them all, which may pay off handsomely in her post politics life.

She thinks everyone is jealous of her.

1. The Wolf of Wall Street

But someone needs to tell her she's on the Palin career trajectory. She's flaming out.

But the Fascist Felon told her not to run against Ossoff for Senate. I'm betting she announces her Senate run soon. The Repubs desperately want Ossoff gone.

Ossoff should beat her. She's polarizing and outside of her base has high negatives. It would boost Democratic turnout.

She’s the daughter of a big construction company owner. Her ex husband still runs it.

She somehow went through high school and UGA without many people remembering her.

She started a couple Planet Fitness franchises and was apparently openly know to be having sex with a member.

Her first claim to fame is as a QAnon influencer. She filed to run and she put in the work. I’ll give her that.

I was thinking in terms of elections and a new congress being sworn in and that happens on Jan 3rd. Is she really going to take the oath on the 3rd just to resign 2 days later? Then it hit me what I was missing, this resignation is Jan 5th 2026, not post mid term Jan 5th 2027. That still sets up a special vacancy in that seat and a special election to fill it before the mid terms.

and Kemp will just do a special election (although they do have a "run off process", should no one get more than 50%, and that would extend the time to fill)...

There's just about exactly a zero percent chance of a Democrat taking that seat. It'll go to whichever right wing candidate is the bat-shit-craziest.

She’s leaving in six weeks; the next congress isn’t sworn in until January 2027.

I do think his refusal to endorse her, is largely responsible for her apparently turning on trump in some key matters- healthcare (her family needs subsidies) and Epstein rapes.

I don't understand that timeline but what do I understand about her? Nothing.

Link to tweet

has no future in the RethugliKlan party. I was struck by her saying she was not going to be a battered wife. The only women OJ Caesar will tolerate are those who fawn and bow down before him.

I wish her all the worst.

Are you going to pay back the PPP loan you got and had forgiven? Hmmm

Put your money where your mouth is Marge.

Maybe not as vocal or flamboyant, but more MAGA. It's a safe R district.

She went up against him and is now resigning. It would seem to me that she's been threatened by him. Her resignation will NOT incentivize other Republicans to stand up to Trump.

Interested in your perspective, please. Thank you.

So is the entire GOP. When he has to vacate-the repub infighting will be their demise. Not wanting to be around when half of your colleagues already hate your guts and want you gone...that would be my choice in her situation. Who knows what bounces around in her skull. I wish all these freaks would resign. Or rep is Cory Mills. Slimmest repub rep.

Ohio is gerrymandered Gym Jordan is safe.

Ohio is fucked.

That's what people assumed about MTG.

(and here we are)

Gymbo’s lips far firmly attached to various parts of Trump’s anatomy. I think as long as that is the case Gymbo has little to nothing to worry about. His Ohio-Bama district is firmly red. The only thing that might bring him down is some in depth investigation into the Ohio State wrestling mess. Get a spotlight on that and with enough rocks turned over his ass might be grass.

if we could get rid of Gymsuit.

Former Speaker Drinky would be a step up.

Of course, that is a very low bar but then as long as the bar has wine Drinky would be good with it.

her family because of death threats, yes, and with the explicit details of those threats unknown --- the part we didn't see coming but she did -- her description of being a battered wife, blah, blah, makes it not all that surprising. When I heard of this a half hour ago, I thought, yep, there it is.

I bet the death threats are horrific. The Republicans all want to murder each other. Someone from Turning Points (according to Candace) said she was supposed to be murdered - not Charlie but that she and Tucker were on the kill list. Anna of Young Turks says she gets lots of death threats & she is not suicidal and if she’s killed, a certain country has been threatening her & to blame them. Kim Iverson said she’s getting death threats, someone broke into her house while she was home and
she’s not suicidal etc. Even Bill Maher says he has security.

Since Charlie’s death, house member security has been raised from $5,000 to $10,000 a month for security guards (expected to expire today) -but will be expanded Actually, $50,000 for 4 months. Everyone is freaked out after Charlie Kirk assignation.
House members also got $20,000 each to upgrade their house security cameras, etc

This is sick. Podcasters, journalists, representatives all need security now. Charlie Kirk traveled with 6 to 10 security guards and that didn’t save him. When Kirk was on Bill Mauers he questioned Charlie about having so much security with him. Candace said he kept telling her they “are going to kill me”

who are about to be laid off.

We will not be responsible for what may or may not happen. You brought it on yourself.

Oh Happy day!!!!

And a happy new year!!!

She’s still a viper and not to be trusted.

the common everyday POS, unreconstructed QAnon, freak.

his side, voice against him, even a voice for sanity surprisingly once in awhile.

What is in the water over there?

Also, not a good precedent for those who stand up, even just a little.

The mold has to be completely eradicated. And it will be. The only question is when and how far the infestation has to go before everyone stands up to the creep.

But you've painted a bullseye on yourself.

oh. fuck you too

Apart from her use of steroids and who knows what else, I have nothing to base this on. A presidential run, as suggested upthread, is far more likely, but there it is.

line to be Vance's VP when TSF faceplants.

I always thought that MTG was just a stupid woman, but I now see that she’s actually very politically cunning and astute. She sees the writing on the wall and probably knows it’s going to get way worse for Trump and the republicans, so she’s pivoting and positioning herself to run for higher office (probably president) when this over. It’s probably smart of her to get off this sinking ship before things get crazy bad for republicans. She’s a horrible human being and would be a disastrous president, but she’s been making politically savvy moves that may pay off for her. Time will tell.

Good riddance!

It is now estimated to be $22.5 million.

And lifetime health care. She will be back for GA senate and if that fails GA Governor.

Something that Santos was unable to accomplish (5 years and then vested)!

I don’t have links at hand, but did read references to this, and read it via DU I believe.

Signs off on the day she gets her bennies.

Yeah...whatever Traitor Green.

and will be vested and eligible for a full Federal retirement. Not a lot of $$ but it is something.

I suspect Marge is hoping Trump's Republican party destroys itself by 2028 so she can step in as the true MAGA candidate.

That will put a cherry on top of this story.
Poor MGT…thinks she is a battered wife.

Handmaiden! What the fuck did you think was gonna happen? Pa thetic!

She could vote with Democrats for one full year. THAT would be proof to me that she has a change of heart. If not, well then she's the same ol Marjorie Green.

That way they would have had less time to schedule an election to get her replacement. But, this still works out for a short term benefit. Dems should start sponsoring bills to clawback funding for companies that took their tax breaks and either didn't invest it in hiring or capital improvement or who raised prices beyond what was justified by Trump tariff costs. And, they should always phrase it as Trump tariff cost.

There are 3 vacancies at the moment (+ 1 more once MTG leaves), so it's currently 219 - 213.

There is a (D) seat (TX) with a runoff election scheduled in December, an (R) seat with a special election also in December, a (D) seat (NJ) special election in April 2026, and finally MTG's seat's special election some time in February/March 2026 (which might end up with a further runoff election after that if no one gets greater than 50%).

So by the end of January, it could be 219 - 214 (assuming (R)s get the highly contested TN seat), and by the end of April, it would be 220 - 215.

IF (D)s could actually pick up the TN seat, then it would be 219 - 216.

that it ended with a runoff, so that runoff election will happen in December (it's still a blue seat and will stay (D)).

The TN seat is a hope hope hope (it's a (R) district and (D)s are pumping a lot of $$$ into it to flip it). But obviously it ain't over 'till it's over (no counting those chickens)! That special election is also December.

Mikie Sherrill (D-NJ) just got elected governor of NJ and just resigned her seat Nov. 20, and her election won't be until April. And finally MTG leaves Jan. 5, 2026 (and there is a time frame for when that special election will happen).

She will be fully vested.
That’s why she’s been sounding more reasonable.
She doesn’t have to worry about her MAGA constituents.
She’s going to leave the House having done lots of bad, but towards the end, she decided to throw us a few bones.
She will have done her 5 years as of January 2026, she is then fully vested for Federal Employee Gub’mint benefits, free healthcare for life, etc.

Even if she is rich, the motivation to get free healthcare in this country is pretty damn powerful. Not to mention the speaking gigs and the gravitas. Gotta hand it to her. She played her cards well.

But do as much damage to TSF and the Repugs as possible before you leave.

BREAKING: AOC on MTG retiring:

"She's carefully timing her departure just 1-2 days after her pension kicks in and after making millions of dollars insider trading stocks for weapons manufacturers and others while in office."

bailing out of the sinking MAGA ship.

It's all about keeping the TV tuned to the next episode.
Can the Real Housewives of Capitol Hill be on the horizon?
After his Mamdami love fest,who knows?
