Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene is sponsoring a bill to grant Kyle Rittenhouse the Congressional Gold Medal, the highest honor the legislative branch can bestow.
The Georgia Republican introduced the bill Tuesday following Rittenhouse's acquittal of all charges in the killing of two men during riots in Kenosha, Wisconsin, last year. The bill's summary says the legislation will "award a Congressional Gold Medal to Kyle H. Rittenhouse, who protected the community of Kenosha, Wisconsin, during a Black Lives Matter (BLM) riot on August 25, 2020."

This is foolish and political theater. Kyle killed people and has PTSD because of it. I’m sure the kid has issues because of what he had to do. No, he didn’t have a choice but it’s still a trauma for a kid to kill someone. This isn’t something to celebrate, it’s a tragedy, one that will always be with him. Using this for political brownie points is callous.
Trump-level trolling!
Exactly! This is something that the Dims would do to us.
She is a maestro at trolling the opposition. Well done.
We’re lucky to have her.
As a businessman, How do you ask as a 17 year old kid with a rifle to go protect his business, by himself being looted burned and destroyed by thousands of crazy a##es? I don’t get it.
It won’t pass but that won’t stop Kyle Rittenhouse’ name to be put in the Congressional Record in a positive light.
On the other hand, Marjorie is probably one of the most hated conservatives when it comes to the slithering Democrats.
what has she done about the vote fraud in her own state?
“Good luck getting it pushed through.”
That’s not the point. The question puts folks on record and trolls the leftists mercilessly.
Hysterical and I hope the liberals go into hysterics.
Too much of a stunt. It makes her look silly. Focus on your job, MTG, not on attention-getting.
Wahh-wahh.
“One of the most hated conservatives when it comes to the slithering Democrats”
A badge of honor for sure!
MTG - snatching defeat from the jaws of victory.
Yep. Akin to POTUS Trump awarding Rush during SOTU. The left was buggin’ for months after. Lol!
It makes it look like she’s celebrating two guys getting killed, which is something Rittenhouse himself has avoided.
Call your congressmen and ask them to get behind MTG’s bill. Flood Congress with calls. I can’t wait to call mine! Her name escapes me at the moment but I’ll look it up. She’s a Soros plant. Hailey something, a D.
what has she done about the vote fraud in her own state?

Greene, who describes herself as a businesswoman who has run a construction company and a CrossFit gym, was one of 147 Republicans who voted in favor of objections to the results of the presidential election in early January and has claimed there was widespread voter fraud.
She isn’t well liked by Assistant Democrats either.
Exclusive — Ret. Navy SEAL Jonathan Gilliam on Kyle Rittenhouse: ‘Everything He Did Was Textbook Perfect’

Kyle Rittenhouse’s conduct on August 25, 2020, in Kenosha, Wisconsin, was “textbook perfect,” Jonathan Gilliam, retired Navy SEAL, former FBI agent, and author of Sheep No More: The Art of Awareness and Attack Survival, said.
Gilliam stated, “When he had his weapon and he was confronted by these imminent threats of loss of life or serious bodily injury, he engaged in a proper manner to eliminate the threat. You didn’t see him out there hammering people down, mowing people down. It’s when the threat got too close and it posed an imminent threat … he took action.”
Rittenhouse was not “praying and spraying in a total reaction,” Gilliam added. “If you look at who these people were that he actually shot, and what their actions were, and how he was trying to get away, and they came after him, everything he did was textbook perfect.”
“Even when he was on the ground, he was not engaging people unless they engaged him,” he remarked. “It was perfect.”
Rittenhouse’s control of his firearm was “amazing,” Gilliam emphasized. “[He] held his weapon properly … kept his weapon in his hands when he was getting beat [and] when he was running. He wasn’t sweeping people. He didn’t drop his gun, He held onto it and maintained positive control the whole time with his finger off the trigger.”
Leftist riots would have been prevented had thousands of Americans followed Rittenhouse’s example to defend the peace, Gilliam held.
Videos of Rittenhouse shooting his attackers revealed “great weapon-handling skills,” Gilliam concluded.
