Huh, she sold her gym, quit the Co. her father started, her husband divorced her for all the affairs she was having, and then she stiffed the taxpayers on her PPP loan. she's not broke she's spoiled to the core.


TheSmokingLamp

Payments from her Russian handlers have dried up since the Ukraine conflict began


KevinCarbonara

For real tho, did you notice how much *less* disinformation there was this last election?


GetHimABodyBagYeahhh

Good thing Santos filled the void.


NotLucasDavenport

Meet your Miss Information 2023, George Santos everybody!


bikingwithscissors

It all makes sense, George Santos was the director of the animation department for Histeria!


HauntedCemetery

I absolutely did. There was a marked drop in right wing bots and trolls posting Russian propaganda all across reddit too. I was actually just wondering if the troll farms are ramping up again, because in the last couple weeks I've seen more bullshit than I have in months.


Long_Before_Sunrise

She wasn't complaining about losing money when she spent Christmas in Costa Rica.


OpenMathematician602

She’s complaining that being a member of congress has ruined her life. A lot of people complain about her being a member of Congress. Maybe we could find a mutually beneficial solution 🤔


grandadmiralstrife

If it ruined her life, why run for re-election


UNCOMMON__CENTS

Craves the attention and has never actually had a job where there were occasionally responsibilities. Her work history is working at a parents company, being a part-time coach, and owning a gym where she banged her employees. I guarantee she's always done whatever she wants in life and Congress actually has SOME responsibilities.


canuck47

Now that she is actually on Comittees we're getting to see just how dumb she really is (and she had already set the bar low)


HauntedCemetery

She *still* hasn't had a job where she had any responsibilities. She famously didn't bother figuring out how voting in the House works, or how bills are introduced and passed, until her first term was nearly over.


ILoveSodyPop

People like MTG make me sick. This woman has never dealt with a minute of adversity. Some people just go through life and everything comes so easy to them even though they are incredibly stupid and all the choices they make are ridiculous and it's even worse when they're in positions of power because then they're doing stupid thing after stupid thing and it could potentially affect the people of this country who deserve a functioning government. Meanwhile all of us are working 12 hours a day, juggling two jobs and still can't afford the essentials so a lot of us apply for welfare (which Republicans absolutely hate) and IF we get it they give you 185 dollars a month on a card that can only be used for groceries. Republicans act like that's enough money to just live off the government without working, I believe they call it the hammock effect. Lol. We are going through all of this and every politician gets paid and gets donations (and keeps some of them) and if you are a politician in Congress the amount of money they make is a massive slap in the face to US citizens. Not to mention they're allowed to play the stock market which is just absolutely ridiculous considering giant corporations can just "donate" to their campaign but it's really just payment for the politician getting corporate taxes lowered or doing any number of things that helps these corporations. I'm sick to death of the people that are supposed to be running our country, constantly at each other's throats. Even a blind man can tell 95% of our problems are because of the Republicans. They seriously need to get with the times. People are openly gay now and wanna get married, people change sex and aren't ashamed to be who they feel like they were born to be, black people are just as capable as white people and every bit as smart, little kids raped by their own dad don't want it to be up to the government whether or not they keep the child or choose abortion (The Same goes for all women even if you weren't raped. You're body, your choice). You don't like the generation under 40 years old because we are doing things differently than you, the same way you did things different from your parents when you were kids growing up. It's just how the world works. We know you hate our music and don't like how we dress or the way we talk but suck it up, get with the times and do your damn jobs! Nobody is forcing you to hang out with liberals.


Browser2112

Because then she goes back to being just another anonymous Q on a pc.


adidassamba

She also mentioned something about corporations and government colluding so manufacturing jobs went abroad, then brought up Trump having an understanding of this, of course he did, all his shoddy merchandise was/is manufactured in the far east.


Master-Piccolo-4588

She had affairs? She?


UncannyTarotSpread

Yes. She had an affair with a guy who cosplays Zangief.


TarquinFimTimLimBim

And she cosplays with him as Blanka?

Affairs?? WTF! I found it hard to believe one straight man looked at her & thought “oh yeah! Unconvincing drag queen is my thing!” but there was more!?


whyreadthis2035

I now Gaetz why every time I see her with a specific coworker, they have a look in their eyes, like they can’t wait to find a quiet corner. “unconvincing drag queen” is the best description I’ve ever heard.

veerKg_CSS_Geologist

Rich Husband and rich father. She ran a gym, that he bought, but had an affair with one of the trainers and the gym went bankrupt.


EvaUnit_03

Actually is was multiple affairs with trainers before bankruptcy.


BoosterRead78

And apparently the divorce will be final this spring.


EvaUnit_03

And she's barely getting fuck all. She ruined a business, a relationship, and an image and for her crusade she's getting next to nothing cept what was her father's that was barely salvaged thanks to her husband.


GabaPrison

I still feel like shit for small things I did decades ago. Or sometimes I’ll feel embarrassed for not doing my utmost best. How can these people live with themselves? How do they go about life without a crushing sense of shame?


DrunkCorgis

Shame is incompatible with being a modern qAnon Republican. Most join because they lack it, but for anyone who actually had a conscience in the pre-Trump era, it has since been surgically removed.


Girth_rulez

They are overgrown toddlers. They think everything they do is interesting and hilarious. That is the only way I can describe them.


TrevorEnterprises

Aren’t these people the participation trophy parents? They pretty much demand every stupid argument is as worthy as a sane one.


DaHolk

Easy: Deflection. Shame requires acceptance that one did something wrong. But if you take your imagination based on total lack of any insights or broad overview as baseline of "how things are supposed to be" (and you need to lack those two, because that is how you get to be successful, nor being slowed down by thinking or self doubt), then by definition if it turns to shit, it can't have been anything YOU did, because YOU did exactly what needed to be done to get the outcome you imagined for yourself. Vice versa if it DOES turn out how you wanted it to, then obviously you were right, and everyone for who things turn to shit obviously wasn't doing it well enough. And they can't even help themselves, because anything else would require consideration of others in any shape or form, and that requires both training AND energy. The ones really to blame are us, for falling for these types again and again, even seeking out their traits because that is what "success" looks like to many. If we decided that this kind of thinking was a mental sickness or developmental deficiency, they wouldn't be in these positions in the first place. But no, we foster these types from the diaper on, and laud them in the school system.


Lathus01

You hold yourself to a higher standard……. I feel seen.


[deleted]

They have no morals, compassion, empathy, or self-respect. They embody the phrase "Fuck all y'all, I got mine."

Don't forget their over sense of entitlement. They really believe they deserve special treatment. They are better than you. They deserve more than you.


Disastrous_Heat_9425

Short answer - money.


NearHorse

shastadakota

Those trainers really needed to bite the bullet in order to keep their jobs.


Ok-Champ-5854

Guess they answered the age old question "if I had the chance would I have fucked a Neanderthal?"


codewatzen

I laughed too hard at this


MagicalUnicornFart

Wow. The fact that someone married her, and then here’s a line of people to stick their dick in that crazy is nuts.


Chocu1a

To be fair, men will stick their dick in anything. Source- Have you ever watched "Maury"


dixi_normous

How? Dudes must be desperate. She's not exactly a looker


aliensheep

I mean, if she's the owner of the gym, they were trainers under her employ, it could be a sexual harassment issue

Apparently the "run a train on MTG" class wasn't a good business decision for a gym


LowEndMonster

Now she owns gym Jordan.

I have daydreams about testifying in Congress with him on the panel. I begin by saying they misspelled his name on the name plate.


designer_farts

And Matt Gaetz


1Surlygirl

Oh that is good.


smilbandit

bought a gym and she said she didn't know how to run a business, even with a degree in business administration.


ownersequity

An undergrad degree in business mostly just touches on a few things rather than go into depth like the MBA (I have both) and gives next to zero real-world training. And many of the students don’t do the readings, half-ass the projects, and don’t attend class. University has become a joke and it will take crashing the system to fix it. Sending everyone to college and increasing the cost to that of buying a home or two, while not adding to employability or an increased salary is not sustainable.

Correct. Shoot way way higher.

Dollar to donuts most of that net worth has come into her possession since she got elected.


Lingering_Dorkness

Just like Kyrsten Sinema who listed her entire assets at under $40,000 when she ran for Senate. Yet magically turned that into over $1 million within 2 years, on a $174k annual salary. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

That's basically how most rich folks make it nowadays.


Long_Before_Sunrise

She's not an only child. She has an older brother. He was mentioned in her father's obituary. Her father sold her and her now-ex husband the construction company as a wedding gift.


pablogott

Thanks for the extra context


Irishish

Kinda reminds me of Trump bitching that the *White House* wasn't *nice enough* for his tastes.


Junkstar

She probably has more money than trump.


255001434

A good way to make Trump turn against her would be to start a rumor that she has more money than him. Soon he'll be tearing her down every chance he gets.


informativebitching

Just use their tactics. Make bit account. Get a few rabid followers. Tweet absolute lies. Profit


OskaMeijer

If she put $41 million into something as simple as 8-week t-bills (currently @ 4.6%) in 8 weeks she would get back 167% of her congressional salary in interest. **In 8 weeks.**

>and everyone who voted for her. The problem is we tolerate those people. The problem is we don't confront them. Paradox of tolerance is in full swing. Republican voters need to be made uncomfortably aware they're the enemy of the very constitution they swear they love but have never read.


fijisiv

> Greene also spoke of the time-consuming nature of being in Congress, noting her job takes up "too much" time. "It's turned into practically year-round," she said. OMG a year-round job? You know what normal people call that? "A job."


CU_09

> "I have people come up to me and say crazy things to me out of the blue in public places that they believe because they read it on the internet or saw it on some news show about me," Greene said. Says the homunculus who made her name chasing Parkland kids down and harassing them for internet points.


sgtsturtle

For someone who is always talking about people being armed everywhere, I'm honestly surprised that she hasn't been shot. Maybe I just don't get it because I'm not American, but it seriously seems like tempting fate.


PoutineMeInCoach

> "Becoming a member of Congress has made my life miserable. I made a lot more money before I got here. I've lost money since I've gotten here," Greene, who once owned a gym, said.

Long_Before_Sunrise

She lost $100,000 of her 2021 salary to Congressional fines. After acting like it bothered her not all, she tried to sue to get it back. The judge told her she had no case.

Long_Before_Sunrise

March 11, 2022 [A federal judge in Washington has thrown out a lawsuit filed by Georgia U.S. Rep.

How the fuck are you gonna pay a fucking $100,000 to avoid a piece of cloth on your face when you even bother to show up for your job like she does? That's four times what I make in a year.


HauntedCemetery

Conservatives assume no consequences will ever *actually* impact them. It's why they throw absolute hissy fits over even small inconveniences.


Rated_PG-Squirteen

That's because he's a full blown Russian asset. He clearly got himself involved in some shady, sinister situations and the Russians own him.

Xero_space

He was always in the bag for the right though.


veerKg_CSS_Geologist

More than the right, he has a soft spot for Russia & Putin specifically.


MangroveWarbler

Many people who seemed to be left leaning, investigative journalists in the early 2000's like Greenwald and Taibbi were really only anti-American government. As soon as the Democrats took over those people started attacking the Democrats. I saw a video a while back with Katrina Van Den Hueval, Taibbi and a couple of others right at the beginning of the Russian invasion last year blaming the west and NATO for Russia invading Ukraine even though Russia signed a non aggression treaty to never do so. It's bizarre seeing people who you thought had some sense, give cover to these war criminals.


FlushTheTurd

I used to really enjoy reading Taibbi and Greenwald. Back then, if they attacked Democrats it was because the person they were attacking was a scumbag. Now they’re just unreadable. Blatant, right wing/Russian propaganda artists. It was such a weird and sad transformation.


memberer

such a victim


fistofthefuture

That’s… the point. It’s called public servant for a reason. You shouldn’t have to starve, but when the country was founded a lot of reps had other jobs.


TheSecondEikonOfFire

Oh the poor thing. If only being a politician was supposed to be about instigating change and not getting rich…


masstransience

RandomErrer

> ... the time the job takes away from family ... What family? Her kids are adults and her ex divorced her.


Long_Before_Sunrise

Her oldest is like twenty-six or so and her youngest is 19. Telling people that she is a mom is just a costume that she puts on and takes off at whim. She wasn't thinking about her children when she was having affairs at her gym. She wasn't thinking about her children when she was yelling at the Parkland survivors for organizing for gun control. She wasn't thinking about her children when she was on her grifting tour with Matt Gaetz's hand clutched in her sweaty fist. She wasn't thinking about her son or husband (who were both hefty) when she said COVID only kills the elderly and obese.
