“Why did you drag us down here?”
Under the second Trump administration, however, Greene has increasingly emerged as a rogue voice of dissent within the Republican ranks.
Over the past several months, the congresswoman has blasted the GOP for effectively bailing out the Argentine economy, striking against Iranian nuclear facilities, providing ongoing aid to Israel and, amid the ongoing government shutdown, refusing to take action regarding the expiration of Obamacare subsidies at the end of this year, which may see insurance premiums more than double for some families come January.
Greene has also fervently lobbied for greater transparency in the White House’s handling of recent developments in the Jeffrey Epstein sex trafficking case. With her Republican colleague in the House, Thomas Massie, and their counterpart across the aisle, Democratic Congressman Ro Kanna, she has helped helm a growing push to have the Justice Department release new documents on the late pedophile’s crimes.

We’re down in Wonderland!
Look, I’m no fan of Rep Greene (R-GA), even if she did give me one of my favorite conspiracy theories of all time, but these days she’s starting to come across as the most sane of her caucus – and actually making sense when it comes to criticizing the ways of the GOP.
And that’s gotta be a bit scary for everyone in D.C.
Especially if she goes independent. The failure to release the Epstein Files may actually cause the unimaginable.
