Marjorie Taylor Greene's been on a tear, expressing a great deal of displeasure and anger about things that Donald Trump and MAGA Republicans have done recently.
She is pissed that Donald Trump entered into a minerals deal with Ukraine.
Notice that this minerals deal was being talked about before all of the time, but now nobody's talking about this minerals deal at all. It's because President Zelensky of Ukraine totally outmaneuvered Donald Trump and
the things that Donald Trump was trying to shake down Zelensky with. Ultimately, Donald Trump
didn't get and Zelensky worked out a great deal for Zelensky and frankly, for the free world.
But you notice that MAGA is not talking
about that. Well, Marjorie Taylor Greene's pissed about that. She's pissed at the other MAGA
Republicans in the house. And there's a civil war brewing within the MAGA Republican ranks.
Let me just show you what's going on here. And then I want to also talk about Marjorie Taylor
Greene's market manipulation and what her stock trades are showing, in my opinion.
Here's what Marjorie Taylor Greene just posted. We don't want the rare earth minerals in Ukraine
that will bind America to never-ending spending and military defense. We have plenty of our own
rare earth minerals we can mine right here at home, creating American jobs and wealth.
But the federal government needs to allow it. I'm not sure she really has an understanding of
anything, yet alone the way rare earth minerals work. Also, it's probably not a good idea to
attack Canada and Donald Trump continuing to use war language against Canada when there is a huge amount of rare
earth minerals in Canada.
Also, we should reflect upon the fact that Canada has placed a total embargo on rare
earth minerals and its possession reaching the United States, which is critical for components
in most of our electronics.
That's not getting a lot of attention except here on the Midas Touch Network.
Marjorie Taylor Greene then posts the following. I represent the base and when I'm frustrated and upset over
the direction of things you better be clear the base is not happy. I campaign for no more foreign
wars and now we're supposedly on the verge of going to war with Iran. I don't think we should
be bombing foreign countries on behalf of other foreign countries, especially when they have their own nuclear weapons and massive military strength.
And on top of that, now we're told that we have signed a deal for mineral rights in Ukraine
in order to pay us back for the hundreds of billions of dollars that we gave Ukraine.
And they used for money laundering, sold the weapons we gave them to our enemies. And their
leader is a dictator who canceled elections, was involved of the first
impeachment of Trump and campaigned for Biden. Pause. Even when I'm sharing with you Marjorie
Taylor Greene turning against the GOP and attacking the GOP and without saying Trump's name,
also attacking Trump, I got a fact checker because all of these things are absolutely
false. The money's not being used for money laundering. It's been used to defend Ukraine, which stands as a bulwark on the front lines of protecting the
free world from Russia invading other areas in Eastern Europe and then taking Europe. Ukraine
has bravely defended itself and by proxy has defended the entire free world. They're not
selling weapons to our enemies,
unless Marjorie Taylor Greene thinks that our enemies include NATO. President Zelensky is not
a dictator. Vladimir Putin and your dear leader, Marjorie Taylor Greene, Donald Trump is.
And then she goes on to whine even more. She goes, didn't we learn our lesson when we went
to war in Iraq and killed Saddam Hussein because of weapons of mass destruction? Did we ever find any? And did any of that oil over in
the Middle East make us rich? The answer is no. We are $36 trillion in debt today. Pause. Donald
Trump contributed to 25% of that marjorie. You and the MAGAs are responsible for most of that debt,
but I'll go on. So why on earth would we go over and occupy Ukraine and
spend an untold amount of future taxpayer dollars defending and mining their minerals, as well as
potentially putting American lives at risk at war? Why don't we just mine our own rare earth minerals
that are tied up on federal lands that the government confiscated years ago? I also
campaigned on accountability for the communist and tyrannical acts made by the
government during COVID. Yet the COVID vaccine still has FDA approval, even though there were
millions reported injuries and deaths. And this mRNA vaccine is known to have horrific side effects
and does not stop people from catching COVID. Let's pause there for a second again.
Even though this video is showing you Marjorie Taylor Greene attacking other MAGA
Republicans, I have to fact check it. The COVID vaccine is effective. We've seen that in cohorts
where the vaccine's been used versus cohorts where it hasn't been used. It has massively,
massively helped people. And in unvaccinated communities, the rate of deaths and serious issues is at multiples of
multiples of multiples. The vaccine does work. She goes on to talk about how she wants to revoke
the FDA's approval. They spread all of these lies about the vaccine over and over again. And here we
are, April, I mean, May 5th, and she's still doing the same thing, whining about this stuff.
Then she goes on, I also campaign on accountability of the lawfare that was
waged against the American people the past four years. What about all the people that were locked
up in jail and the abuse they went through? And when are those vicious attorneys and judges
ever going to be held accountable for the lives they ruin. Pause there.
Hey, Marjorie Taylor Greene, you are out there calling the despicable and disgusting human
beings who invaded the Capitol, the insurrectionists, the Oath Keepers, and the Proud Boys.
I know you call them heroes, but Donald Trump released them and he pardoned them or commuted
their sentences.
They're out.
These dangerous, horrific humans
are out there running free, but that's not enough. You want to throw in jail the Trump-appointed
judges and the Reagan-appointed judges? And don't get me wrong, there are Biden-appointed judges
and Obama-appointed judges. There's George W. Bush-appointed judges. A lot of those judges in
D.C. who warned Donald Trump not to
pardon the January 6th terrorists who were involved in some of the most horrific act,
the violent offenders, were Trump appointed judges, were Trump appointed judges. But go on.
Then she goes, and I campaigned for an end to waste, fraud, and abuse of the American people's
harder tax dollars, harder tax dollars. You may want to spell check this, Marjorie, but
okay. I believe the Doge mission is one of the most important things happening today in our
government. And yet, where are the rescissions that we should be voting on in Congress? You
lead the Doge committee, Marjorie. You head it. Maybe you put Elon Musk, your other dear leader,
on the committee and ask questions. I've never heard
of somebody ever leading an initiative in our government who's too afraid to go before Congress
and answer questions. But Elon Musk is being protected? I thought you said he's so smart.
Let him testify. Then she goes on and says, and one of the biggest issues in the nation that I
fought for, and early on I was one of the only ones that took
a loud screaming stand against, is the evil transgender assault against our children. She
says she's got to be transphobic and punch down to marginalized communities. Then she goes,
most normal people in this country can't even, I mean, again, could you just, I mean, how rude of
an individual this is, calling most normal people, You think you're a normal person, Marjorie Taylor Greene?
And what is your inclination and people of your ilk that just want to bully marginalized
communities and beat people who are already having to deal with a lot on their own?
But you're a bully.
You're a classic bully.
Your daddy started a real estate company.
You're living off the money of daddy, Marjorie Taylor Greene. Your ex-husband, who you then
went on and really the family values party, didn't you do that? Weren't you out there with
the yoga instructor and then the other guy? But your ex-husband was the guy who was running daddy's company for you.
And so you got to go out there, spread your QAnon conspiracy theories, run for Congress,
the ultimate definition of privilege. And there you are punching down on communities. You really
are a despicable, despicable human being. Then she goes, and look at the extreme nature of our
rogue judicial system. It's so defiant that they're a judge that defy our nation's laws and block the deportations of literal
enemies of the United States of America.
What are you even talking about?
The Supreme Court ruled nine to zero that an individual with zero criminal history,
who the first Trump administration gave a work permit to, who worked in a union, who
has an American wife and three
American kids. You just believe these people should be sent to concentration camps with no
due process at all? I know you don't know what the Constitution is, Marjorie Taylor Greene,
and you prefer to live in a kind of fascist country where you have a dear leader doing
whatever extermination campaigns that you all think is the right thing to do while obliterating equality,
obliterating the Constitution and screwing over. I mean, is that what you are looking for here?
And she goes, when you are losing MTG, they speak about themselves like that. Like if you
are losing Ben, if you are losing MTG, you are losing the base. And Trump isn't on the ballot
in the future. So do the math on that.
I'm not going to show you the other ones, but it's post after post after post after post
from her. But hey, Marjorie, why don't you, didn't you say to release the Epstein files?
Here, play this clip. I support all the lists being released. I want to see Epstein's list.
I want to see the list of the sexual misconduct slush fund. Okay, so release them.

Oh, and Marjorie Taylor Greene, let's take a look at your trading history from Benzinga right here. Look at all the trades you did right before and after Donald Trump's tariffs against the world.
And didn't you buy Palantir, which was about to do a contract with the Department of Homeland Security and you're on the Department of Homeland Security Committee? Did you know about the AI
Palantir contract? Because you've seen while Americans are suffering, you seem to be buying
the dip and picking all the stocks that are making a lot of money, Marjorie Taylor Greene.
Here, play this clip of Benzinga. Play this clip.
It's always popular when Marjorie Taylor Greene makes an appearance. Let's take a look at her
latest trades in the stock market. All right, we're going to make this easy. All of these
were in April. All of these were purchases and all of these were somewhere between $1,000 and
$15,000. We've got Southern Copper, Qualcomm,
Palantir, Nike, Lululemon, JP Morgan, FedEx, Blackstone, Amazon, AMD, more Palantir,
NVIDIA, Merck, Devon Energy, Cummins, ASML, Applied Materials, Apple, AMD, and Adobe.
Go ahead and let us know who you want to see next.
And just take a look at this unusual trading activity right here. Marjorie Taylor Greene bought Palantir on April 8th.
On April 17th, a $30 million deal between Palantir and ICE was announced.
Greene sits on the House Committee on Homeland Security.
That stock has now risen 48%, then 43% right there.
Oh, Marjorie Taylor Greene also bought, what else did she buy here?
Dollar General right before it went up.
Marjorie Taylor Greene bought RH. Restoration Hardware went up 18% since that. I'll just leave
you all with this right here. Someone who Marjorie Taylor Greene is incredibly jealous of, AOC.
Here's what AOC has to say about Marjorie Taylor Greene buying the dip. Let's play it. And we saw it just happen with Trump's corrupt and disastrous and rushed tariff scheme.
We saw Marjorie Taylor Greene buy that dip.
I got one question for her.
How much did you make?
How much did you make off of people's despair?
How much did you make off that panic? How much did you make off of that suffering? No more. We can't accept it.
I hope we see now that it was all about manipulating the markets so that he could
quietly enrich his friends who bought the
dip before reversing it all in the morning. To be clear, I don't care what party you are,
Democrat or Republican. It doesn't matter how powerful one is or the position that one holds.
Members of Congress holding and trading individual stock is wrong. It is corrosive. It is destructive.
And it needs to be banned. So Marjorie Taylor Greene attacking Trump, attacking the GOP,
you see her right there, doing it right there. You tell me what you think about that. What a
mess these magas are. What a freaking mess these people are. Shameful, shameful humans. Vile, vile.
