I am being very uncomfortable with how much Marjorie Taylor Greene is saying the right shit lately. Smells prez-hopeful-y.

Greene: No. I go to the grocery store myself. Grocery prices remain high. Energy prices are high.

I'm shaking almost too hard to type. I entered SLC airport and heard screams and cries for help. I could see people gathered around, watching. I sped over to discover this woman face down on the floor, four grown men pushing her down, while she cried "HELP ME" and pled for her child.

This proposal is outrageous and harmful. The Trump administration needs to stop attacking and terrorizing the trans community. Medical decisions should be made by patients and health care providers, not by the government.
