    Did her propaganda checks stop clearing and now she’s going scorched earth on everyone on the right? Another “broken clock” take

    Most of the Fox News audience already knows this. Pretty sure that’s most of the appeal for them.

  3. It’s really fucking galling that this psychopath is often the sole voice of reason on the right nowadays.

    I know it comes from a bad and self serving place, and it doesn’t change the horrors of everything she does in the past. That frankly makes it worse.

    Keep in mind, people: you don’t agree with MTG, she’s just finally starting to agree with you.

    She can say that *now* because she has nothing to lose.

    Before that, she was towing the company FOX line and lies.

  6. Me she contributes to a majority of their content and headlines while in office. She’s complicit.

    This kinda feels like when the Cardassians switched sides in the Dominion War of Deep Space Nine at the last minute.

  8. I’d really love to see a serious, in depth interview with her.

    How did this all come about? Take us through her start, where she was screaming in public at school shooting victims and calling them liars, to swearing absolute, full allegiance to the most extreme sides of the right, and nearly dropping to her knees to worship Trump. Then take us through the progression that she’s come to now, where she realizes school shootings are a thing, that the right isn’t great, that Trump isn’t great, that Fox is propaganda, etc.

    It really would be interesting. And I wonder – would there be anything for us to learn here? Like… if SHE can come around to at least some form of sanity… maybe there’s hope for our MAGA uncles and grandparents and all of them?

    What was it that caused her shift, how did it happen?

    And before anyone says it, NO, this is not the normal “hey, they toed the party line while in office and shifted after.” This clearly is MUCH more extreme than that.

  9. It’s like when two shitty people break up and they start insulting eachother and “telling the truth” about eachother… like we didn’t *already know* they’re both stains on society. Nobody is tricked.

    No shit . When they were getting sued they said they were an entertainment station instead of news.

    i mean sure, but what is her angle? the only people who she resonated with are fox news junkies, trumpers, QANON folks.

    does she have an end game here or did she actually just find a bit of humanity ?

  12. Bitter-Whole-7290 on

    She is still trash no matter how much she wants to act like she’s against maga now.

  13. AdLongjumping9249 on

    Qanon dipshit finally realising the call was coming from inside the house all the time.

  14. She is very late to the party. And only got there because Trump did not trust her to be in his inner circle.

  15. I think we may need to learn how to extend grace to people who made wrong decisions they now regret and recant. MTG is giving us a chance to work on how we do this.

    Some of them will be dead-enders and should never be forgiven. But not all.

    Until she publicly apologizes to David Hogg, I’ll never believe she has really changed her views.

  17. You know how in every war movie there’s always a scene where a soldier changes sides and they walk through camp and some soldiers are like “That’s MTG. She was Trump’s right hand woman during the second election. Killed 3,000 Mexican families all by herself. I hear she’s on our side now”

  18. Valuable-Ordinary-54 on

    Equally freaky is that she was responding to this tweet from Ann Coulter:

    “Watching Fox News assure viewers the Iran war is going SUPER well and Trump is a total stud is like watching the same network assure viewers that Dominion Voting Systems rigged the 2020 election and Trump was the winner”

    Says the peddler. Who could believe anything out of her mouth? Change of heart? About time. But your credibility is shot little one, go live your life.

    The most broken clock lol. She’s absolutely right but really could’ve used that energy ten years ago. Would be interesting to see what she considers a good news source these days.
