Perhaps she should’ve thought about that when she was cheerleading the crowd of neocons who are perpetrating all of this.

      Basically, she found out the rest of her party wasn’t actually on board with her personal brand of crazy. The shock of it seems to have redirected her a bit.

      She’s changing her views a bit, but it took her family being personally impacted by the GOP healthcare changes and for Trump to condemn her questioning them surrounding said healthcare changes. She’s making attempts to try to redeem herself I think. If she continues publicly expressing views like this, I’ll commend her for the bravery it takes in admitting, “I was wrong,” so long as all of this shit doesn’t evolve into a political campaign.

      There’s a lot of fracturing and internecine warfare in MAGA land. You can see some of this in Alex Jones struggling to figure out whether he’s still cool with Bannon or not.

      There’s always been a split between the Nazi wing and the Christian Nationalists who support Israel because of their apocalyptic fantasies. You’ve also got the ones who only care about abortion, and the ones with Q and adjacent conspiracy theories. It’s an uneasy alliance.

      MTG is a Q type. Anti semitism is part of it, but it’s more about the insane conspiracy theory world she lives in. She’s not being “reasonable” she just thinks Trump is on the evil Jewish laser team.

      She’s smelling the distrust around Trump (and his Epstein connection) and is now trying to distance herself from the cesspit that she built - maga. I would not trust this person. Remember what she was during 2020-2023. Do not forget.

      She is an antisemite, so she is against Israel because she is against the Jews. Other people are against Israel because of their governments genocidal actions. They are not the same.

      Nope, the Grift simply takes a pivot while reading the gullible market. The Grift must always go on. The market is realizing that Trump is turning into a liability and his best grifting conman days are behind him. As soon as Vance comes onto the main scene it will realign with new conspiracies and views.

        I find that difficult to believe. Does a person who thinks Jews want to surreptitiously start forest fires by putting millions of dollars of high powered lasers into orbit instead of paying a nut job with a match, ever “wake up?” We’re taking about the same lunatic who thinks “they” can control the weather and sent a hurricane only through red districts. The wacko that literally, as a grown ass woman, followed a teenage shooting victim down the street yelling at him for being an actor and faking it.

        I think it’s more plausible that she was hit in the head or something.

    She just brings to light what roles they all put on for their political agenda. They can all be bought or led in a different direction when it suites them. We’ll probably never know her true opinions.

    Timothy Snyder has talked about how anti-Semitism is going to be the weapon of choice for one faction of Trump’s court as they position themselves for the post trump transition. JD Vance will pin all of Trump’s crazy shit on Miller and then try to pin Miller on Rubio. Don’t be surprised if “Israel is responsible for our imperial decline” becomes the post-MAGA “stab in the back theory” of the 2030s… That’s why these fuckers LOATHE progressive anti-Zionist Jews like JVP.

      Don’t be surprised if “Israel is responsible for our imperial decline” becomes the post-MAGA “stab in the back theory” of the 2030s…

      It’s a more rational and evidence-based critique than the “Russia is responsible for our imperial decline” line the Libs have been pitching.

      Only problem is that it still just ends in endless wars, a further decline in standards of living, and… imperial decline.

      How many known Epstein associates have been arrested to date?

      I keep hearing “Release the Files!” I’ve yet to see any New York or California prosecutors going after anyone named. Hell, they’re still subsidizing the businesses and fetting many of the individuals involved.

        I’m not a lawyer, but unless they have reasonable evidence the crimes occurred on their states, the state prosecutors can’t do anything.

        The DOJ has that evidence, they have been ordered to release it and they refuse. Prosecutors can’t ask for underacted files “just in case”

        That’s why people are demanding the files, so people can be arrested.

        I’m honestly surprised how backwards you got it.

            On their states. Please take the full quote.

            Last line is yours, not mine. Also false. They can’t investigate of they don’t even know who’s who. That’s the whole point.

            DOJ has the files and the legal obligation to release them with very limited restriction. Somehow they don’t feel like doing it. That on itself should be a major scandal, regardless of the contents.

            But hey, if you think Epstein was condemned for human trafficking but had no associate or customer, you’re a special case.

              There’s a laundry list of suspects.

              Ffs, the Brits didn’t have a problem going after Mandelson. Even (ex-)Prince Charles.

      She’s still a liar and fraud but she has a functional weathervane that changes with the winds of public opinion. Her problem with israel isn’t the genocide of palestinians, its the jews she hates. She’s the ‘jewish space laser’ lady.

        The Jewish space laser thing was perpetuated by Epstein (a Zionist) and Steve Bannon on 4chan because they were Q.

          The conspiricism of the republican party and its affiliate media is no accident. Its not done by a few bad apples. Its a deliberate framework.

          Similar to how the “deep state” is used to explain away why voting for republicans never improves people’s material conditions, the “jewish space laser” and “weather control” narratives are used to explain how climate change can be ‘fake’ but the increased wildfires and flooding are somehow expected.

          Were they? I’ve never seen any real evidence to support that.

          Post 8chan Q is very probably Ron Watkins, 4chan era Q is less certain but there are indications it was a South African software developer named Paul Furber.

          Not saying they didn’t take their marching orders from Bannin or Epstein, but I’d want evidence of such. And no, the evidence that Epstein played a role in /pol/ existing at all isn’t enough on its own.
