Visit t mobile.com as Marjorie Taylor Greene continues to rip into Donald Trump and take the MAGA base with her away from Donald Trump, Trump is even saying that he might not be MAGA anymore. Instead he's calling it to Publican or te publicans. Trump said there's a new word for Trump Republicans and it's not MAGA anymore. We shall be called to Publican or TP Blue to publican Ser. That's what he was posting. And Marjorie Taylor Greene has been doing post after post going after Donald Trump. And as we've heard that a lot of MAGA Republican Congress members are now considering resigning from the House of Representatives, Marjorie Taylor Greene responds in public and she goes fact check. True, but it's worse than even most people inside the D.C. bubble know when you talk to real Americans outside of the wicked snow globe of of Washington D.C. she keeps on ripping Donald Trump and taking that MAGA base with her and now it's the top publicans or tea publicans. She goes Myself and many of my colleagues came courageously roaring into 2025 with legislation that matched what the 2024 mandate was. She goes Executive orders are temporary. Q memes have not obliterated the deep state and my colleagues constantly trying to pass loyalty tests instead of demanding what is right won't help Americans pay their rent or stop corporations from buying up homes, buy their groceries, provide good paying jobs and stop foreigners with visas from stealing their jobs. Stop American tax tax dollars from funding foreign wars and causes or rebuild the value of the dollar. She goes on to say passing effective legislation that gets signed into law is permanent and actually solves American problems. And then she goes on to say that Trump is now part of the Uni Party. She goes what is a convincing message for 2026 and likely 2028? It will be the American people asking candidates, what tangible thing have you done for me and how did it? Or will it make my life better? She then went after Maga Repub Republican men because you had this guy Cernovich who's a Trumper. I guess not MAGA anymore. Tell her you need to serve out your full term. In response to her saying, oh, I haven't suffered enough for you while you post all day behind a screen, Do I have to stay until I'm assassinated? Will that be good enough for you?

[G]

Shit.

[F]

Posting on the Internet all day isn't fighting. Get off your ass and run for Congress. I fought harder than anyone in the real arena, not social media. Put down your little pebbles and put your money where your mouth is. Then she goes after Republican men. She goes, typical of Republican men, telling a woman to shut up and get back in the kitchen and fix me something to eat. F you. And the sweetest, most Southern drawl I can enunciate, F you Republican men. Marjorie Taylor Greene says, I've been trying to tell all you men, and she puts that in quotes, that our kitchen pantry is empty with spider webs, our house has been ransacked, the windows and doors are broken and busted, and the greedy rich bastards have twisted your minds into a sick state that you all continue in the party. The two party toxic political system that acts like college football playoffs yet is burying you and your children and their children and their children in a pine box in a shallow grave. Get off your ass and fix your own food and clean up the kitchen when you're done. She then goes after Donald Trump's closest ally, Mark Levin, who went after Tucker Carlson. Do you see the infighting taking place here? Mark Levin says the Kitarl sin litmus test. Going forward, I'll insist that every Republican who wants our votes declares if they stand with or against lunatic Tucker Carlson. To which Marjorie Taylor Greene says to Mark Levin and he goes, I'm Mark Le man. That's how he talks. She goes, this is not delivering America first results and you will be the end of the Republican Party. Or should we say the to Republican Party of the publicans or whatever Donald Trump is calling it now. Alex Jones says he's out. Bye bye to maga. Here's what he says. Play this clip.

[H]

I am seriously inches away from not supporting Trump anymore because I am not going to watch him commit political suicide.

[F]

Tucker Carlson says that he's out to MAGA and Republicans. Play the clip.

[I]

And in the Republican Party, which is almost to the point where it's just useless and I'm going to have to oppose it because they're just, I hate them too much but because they're such betrayers. But anyway, they're pop in the Republican Party. It's like, you a socialist.

[F]

Are you from Mandani?

[I]

No, not really a socialist. Just I don't want any more dollar stores. I don't want high density housing in my neighborhood. I don't want any more fucking strip malls that nobody goes to. No more karate studios and vape shops. Like how about now?

[F]

Ooh, socialists.

[I]

You don't believe in the free market because you bribed a fucking county commissioner to build more garbage.

[F]

Then you have Ben Shapiro spiraling. He was in this conference and he was like, he, Nick Fuentes is the worst. All of his people are losers. They are losers. The infighting is crazy right here in Magaland. Here's what Ben Shapiro has to say. Let's play this clip right here.

[E]

Actually coincides with traditional Americanism. And that gives you something to do. If you listen to Nick Fuentes, you are likely to be a loser. He is a loser. He is a basement dwelling, ridiculous loser who spends his days ranting on the Internet to a bunch of other basement dwellers. Don't be one of those people. You don't have to be that. You can actually go get a job, you can get married, you can have a girlfriend. You can actually make something of yourself in this world. And it was really funny. There's one point where actually Tucker made some sort of disparaging reference to Fuentes about this when he was doing an interview with another delightful person, Candace Owens. And in the middle of this interview, he sort of made a disparaging remark about Fuentes. And Fuentes went right back at him and said, you know, you're insulting the basement. While I was Tucker, those are your people. Like you said they were your people, but actually you scorn them. Here's the thing. Nobody should scorn people who are unsuccessful in life when they don't know better. But it's our job to teach them to know better.

[C]

You hear that? That's the sound of nostalgia meeting something brand new. I've always loved soda. It's one of those small joys from childhood. I can never quite quit. But let's be honest, the sugar crash and the guilt, not so great. That's why I'm obsessed with Olipop, the new kind of soda that actually supports your health. Their latest collab is so fun.

[F]

And meanwhile, Donald Trump is going to try to qanon meme his way out of he's been posting Slayer of the Deep State. Time to obliterate the Deep State Donald Trump Q and he keeps posting this account like Deep State Slayer woman for Trump. Right? At the same time, Donald Trump posted that a New York Times female reporter was ugly on the outside and the inside. That's a week after he called another reporter from Bloomberg piggy. And he said, be quiet, piggy. And then he called the New York Times reporter ugly. By the way, I had the opportunity to ask Democratic leader Hakeem Jeffries what he heard about these resignations taking place in maga. And if it's true, and he confirmed that he's hearing a lot of MAGA Republicans may be resigning soon. Let's play this clip. Let's play it.

[A]

Donald Trump and Republicans are completely falling apart. They've been a total failure from the beginning of the year, broken their core promise, which was to drive down the high cost of living costs are going up, housing costs out of control, childcare costs out of control, grocery costs out of control, electricity bills through the roof. And now they continue to refuse to extend the Affordable Care act tax credits, meaning they're going to make health care unaffordable for tens of millions of folks. At the same time, they're unleashing this incredible extremism on the American people. Donald Trump is deeply unpopular. They got wiped out in elections all across the country, up and down the ballot from New Jersey to New York to Virginia to Pennsylvania to Georgia to Mississippi to California and at all points in between. And now you've got Republicans who are ready to get out of town before sundown. And I think these reports that Republicans are going to follow Marjorie Taylor Greene to the exit, these are all consistent with some of the things that we're hearing in the United States House of Representatives when we're on the floor.

[F]

Now to remind you as well, Marjorie Taylor Greene has gone on the offense against Donald Trump in public. Let me just play for you this clip right here.

[G]

Even America first policies, that's why I campaigned for President Trump and have supported him as long as as I have. And I do support him. But I want all of my colleagues to come through in action in supporting America first policies. And I think the American people showed that on Tuesday, you're not going to convince them to go to the polls and vote by bailing out Argentina. And you're not going to convince them to go to the polls and vote by continuing to fund foreign wars and foreign countries and foreign causes. You're going to get them to go to the polls and vote when you show up to work and actually fix the problems that they face every single day.

[J]

And so, you know, one thing that the president said there, and I'm sure a bunch of your constituents and bunch of people, you know, in Georgia shop at Walmart and go there. The president keeps talking about the Walmart Thanksgiving meal where they put everything together that you buy for the holiday, that it's less expensive under him than it was under President Biden. But actually, when you look at it, it's because it has fewer items in it. And they're the great value brand. They're not. They're generic store brand. They're, you know, name brand.

[G]

Right.

[J]

Do you think that he is getting good information from those around him or what do you think it is why he keeps repeating something that's not true?

[G]

Well, I think every president, no matter who they are, are basically in a cone of information by the people that they have working for them and are around them. So that could be the case here. And certainly I'll give credit to Walmart for offering lower prices. American definitely need that. And I'm sure the President was proud to talk about it.

[F]

And then Donald Trump's response was that nobody cares about Marjorie Taylor Greene. He calls her Marjorie Trader Brown and says that she is completely irrelevant. Here's what Trump says. Let's play this clip right here.

[J]

Her life could be a danger because of the rhetoric.

[H]

Her life is in danger. Who's that?

[J]

Marjorie Taylor Greene.

[H]

She says Marjorie Trader Green. I don't think her life is in danger. I don't think, Frankly, I don't think anybody cares about her. Okay, what about you?
