On Friday, former Representative Liz Cheney, a Wyoming Republican, rebuked Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene's rant defending Russian President Vladimir Putin. It has been a little over two years since Putin launched a full-scale invasion into Ukraine in February 2022. As the conflict rages on, support for the war-torn country is dwindling among Republican U.S. lawmakers. Greene, a Georgia Republican, has been a vocal critic of additional U.S. aid being sent to the Eastern European nation.

On Friday, journalist Aaron Rupar shared a clip on X, formerly Twitter, of Greene on right-wing host Steve Bannon's show War Room ranting about members of Congress who support additional aid to Ukraine. "This whole thing is the most repulsive, disgusting thing happening and the American people are the ones writing the check," the congresswoman said. "And I absolutely hate everybody here that is doing this. I mean, I seriously hate them for doing this to the American people and paying for the murder and slaughter of people in Ukraine."
Greene continued: "Vladimir Putin has not said he wants to go march across Europe and take Europe, and the reality is Ukraine is not even a NATO member nation. But if you want to know something [U.S. Department of Defense Secretary] Lloyd Austin and the others here more than anything want to send your uncles, your cousins and your sons and daughters to the frontlines in Ukraine because that is the only country that for some weird, sick and evil reason that they care about."
Cheney responded to the video, writing on X: "Once again Moscow Marge is busy deploying her Kremlin talking points. Is she a useful idiot or is she intentionally spreading Putin's lies? Either way it's pathetic and unAmerican." Newsweek reached out to Greene's office via email for comment.

Foreign agents?
Chump even bragged about how the Russians paid him twice as much as the condo was worth, just to have an address in one of his buildings. This is well-known and documented info. I'd think that's enough for DoJ to charge him with money laundering, wouldn't you? Also it was documented that his casinos were frequently visited by Russians.
It's hard to consider her coming over to the good guys (Democrats) but we'll see what happens.
I would pay for the plane ticket.
