U.S. Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) is calling for the U.S. Armed Forces to militarily attack Mexico, specifically Mexican cartels, which under international law would be illegal and could be seen as a declaration of war.

The extremist Republican congresswoman on Monday said the U.S. Military should be “stationed at our southern border,” and called for the American troops to “strategically strike and take out the Mexican Cartels,” while specifying, “not the Mexican government or their people, but the Mexican Cartels which control them all.”

“They are international terrorists and criminals murdering Americans everyday with drugs and crime!” she continued, echoing Donald Trump’s 2015 presidential announcement.

“They are making BILLIONS on drug and human trafficking and are terrorizing anyone who stands in their way. Our military is competent and should take them out swiftly. Make an example out of these monsters. The only difference between the Cartels and ISIS is that the Cartels are on our southern border.”

Isn't MTG one of those who called our military woke?

She and her buddies should go down there if they think they're so tough.

2. And here I thought Louie Gohmert was the stupidest member of congress...

Move over, Louie.

Your paper crown of stupid now belongs to Empty Headed Greene.

[walkingman]

6. He used to be but remember when someone leaves

someone else quickly takes their place - these days there seems to be a multiplier (GOP).

[SpamWyzer]

13. I simply

must concur. I too thought Louie was the dumbest GQPer. I was wrong. Shit sinks too.

3. That is where Eloon plans to build his next Tesla factory

Hey Eloon! INCOMING!!!

[COL Mustard]

4. She's clearly posturing to be

T*ump's VP nominee. I shudder at the thought of that ticket.

[Marcuse]

7. I would say she's inspired by Tom Clancy novels but ...

[Skittles]

8. let me guess what HER military service is

zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

[AllaN01Bear]

9. hem. i keep saying that lately.

[Lonestarblue]

10. This woman needs to be put in a straitjacket and escorted out of the House.

She is nuts and obviously knows absolutely nothing about US law,.

[SouthernDem4ever]

11. Go ahead Marj

Gather up your family and all your weapons and head on over there. Just leave all of us normal people out of it.

[DENVERPOPS]

17. LOL

Mobilize a force made up of all your right wing militia followers, and go across the border and go for it.......

[Auggie]

12. What many MAGATs want to hear

[chowder66]

14. Throw her off of the committees, censure her, expel her.

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

15. Do you perhaps mean censure?

cen·sure
[ˈsen(t)SHər]
VERB
express severe disapproval of (someone or something), especially in a formal statement:
"a judge was censured in 1983 for a variety of types of injudicious conduct"

[chowder66]

16. Thank you for catching that.

[Phoenix61]

18. Wasn't she just screaming about Zelensky couldn't have our sons and daughters

but she wants to instigate a war with Mexico?

[XorXor]

19. This lady has such a simplistic understanding of things

Are they incapable of putting more than 5 seconds of thought into anything? I would love to see her be forced to go into detail about what she thinks should be done, how it would work, why it would work, and explain what thinks is happening now.

[MissMillie]

20. If everything MTG says about the problems w/ the cartels...

... has anyone looked into how the cartels are arming themselves?


I realize that this may seem like a bit of a tangent, but she wants MILITARY strikes against a COUNTRY (not the cartels, but the COUNTRY) because the actions of the cartels hurt Americans.

But where are the cartels getting their guns? If the guns are coming from the U.S., would Mexico be justified in ordering military strikes against us?

Is this a silly question?

[dalton99a]

21. Crazy howler monkey jumps, scratches, howls

[News Junkie]

22. She has Israel envy

Attack your weaker neighbor because you're the victim. Mexicans could be our Palestinians. What the hell, OCCUPY MEXICO!!

[twodogsbarking]

23. This from a man named Joe.

24. I think she watched "Clear and Present Danger"

And probbly thrilled when the pilot reported that "the pickle is hot".

That movie was about a Colombian cartel, but MTG wouldn't know the difference between Colombia and Mexico.

[jmowreader]

25. Hmm...

Y'know, Ringling Brothers has resurrected their circus as an animal-free spectacular. There might be the possibility that we could fire Marjorie Three Affairs into Mexico with their cannon.

The only problem with that is it WOULD be seen as an act of war.

However, I'm sure we could find plenty of liberal artillerymen who'd be happy to fire the mission.

Alternately, we could airdrop her out of a PC-12 over cartel-infested territory. "No ma'am, you don't get a parachute. You must be a graduate of the Basic Airborne Course to get one of those."

26. Send Her Kids

I do not have a problem whatsoever with launching an attack on Mexico as long Marjorie Taylor Greene's kids and the kids of all those calling for an attack are put on the front line of the attack.
