No. Trump said she isn’t in any danger which I don’t agree with.

She can start drawing her congressional pension - in 11 years when she turns 62.

Based on the calculations found at:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Congressional_pension#

she’ll get about $8,800 per year.

- Dr. Anthony Fauci - Rachel Maddow (MSNBC host) - John Bolton (ex-Trump NSA) - Bill Kristol (conservative critic) to name a few. Basically an honor guard of anti-Trump folk.

Not really a question of how much money she needs, in my opinion. Potentially, she spent nearly 5 years earning her pension, most of the time in the good graces of conservatives on this site. I would not give up that pension. Would you? I’m not making this assessment as a fan of MTG. I’m merely pointing out that, whatever my disagreements with her, I don’t fault her for sticking around for 6 or 7 weeks to reap a pension that took nearly all of five years to earn.

Call it simple pragmatism. Now, as to the $20 mill, if any of that crowd reaped it illegally, I see your point. And, I suspect, even if it were legal, it wasn’t ethical wealth.

And waiting till January gets her a nice fat government pension after a whole 5 years of service.

Great point. SO sick of MTG and her drama.

[nutmeg]

Yup.

I think there's something else going on...and it's connected to the Epstein "victims" she was publicly pleading for...."using the justice card.

Maybe she found out that at least two had lied before and that they were all paid half a mil...and this was just a ploy to get more.

Let's see what the future brings.

In the meantime...she's a "lame dame".

"I have too much self respect and dignity, love my family way too much,

Full stop.

Controversial Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Georgia) just got served divorce papers by her husband Perry Greene, who said the marriage was “irretrievably broken.”

The congresswoman has also been accused of having multiple affairs that nearly caused the marriage to dissolve in 2012. The filing also claimed that the pair had been functionally separated for years.

The two married in 1995 and have three children together. She reportedly had an affair with an employee of a gym in Alpharetta, Georgia about a decade ago, and one anonymous source told The Daily Mail that the affair “wasn’t a secret” and everyone suspected Perry and Marjorie’s marriage to be collapsing.

There were also reports that one of these gym employees was a “tantric sex guru,” which is not something you would expect to hear along the name Marjorie Taylor Greene.

Greene has been vocal about her faith and family values as a central...

If her development/construction company employs illegals, their assets should be seized and the owner(s) prosecuted.

She got her “feelings” hurt...says a lot about the “quality” of “representatives” and “leaders” we have these days.

Thanks for a simple agreement. Too often on this site, a reaction is usually volatile and directed at a single element of a reply rather than the full context and meaning. FreeRepublic is my go-to site to see breaking headlines bc so many people are watching the world and eager to post first. OTOH, The quality of discussion and debate is often instantaneous, full-on outrage. Best site I’ve found for truly measured and educational debate is the Conservative Treehouse.

[Jeff Vader]

I’m not questioning her right to the pension, sorry should have made that clear. It’s the other increase in wealth, I mean that’s approaching hillary clinton levels of investment expertise

What the hell does football have to do with it?

[DIRTYSECRET]

Please be advised I have other fish to fry.

[DIRTYSECRET]

O-H. Brandon Aiyuk like MTG was big news. A Friday afternoon ‘dumping’ announcement keeps it out of the headlines.

[RetiredArmy]

There are plenty in congress.
