Marjorie Taylor Greene Likens Dems To Hogs, Wants Help Shooting Them Dead

Far-right Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.) on Tuesday launched a competition to join her hunting for feral hogs in Texas. In a video shared on Facebook, the extremist lawmaker likened Democrats to the wild animals that tear up farmers’ crops.





There follows a montage showing Greene shooting at a pig from a helicopter, then posing on the ground with what is purportedly its corpse with the chopper in the background.

She couldn't actually HUNT if her life depended on it. And those feral hogs in Texas, they aren't running around through open fields during the day. They come out at twilight and night. Other than the very occasional sighting. That was staged.

She was a part of the insurrection and it looks like she will get away with it.

Experts believe that use of anabolic steroids can contribute to paranoia, depression and violent outbursts known as "roid rage."

I also believe she was/is on HGH as well. Her facial features have grown since adulthood to where she looks neanderthal. I saw pics of her when she was in her early 20s. Definitely a difference in bone structure.

Someone burned it down a while back and they just can't get over it. Even my Russian friends have pretty much forgiven the Germans.

...is absolutely no accident. It's a clear nod to white supremacists. I don't even think she cares all that much about how wild hogs are hurting farmers. This is an opportunity for her to let her base know she still has their back.
