I'm pretty sure she got into politics to be "famous." I suspect she has a reality TV deal, and THAT'S why she's leaving Congress...
A lot of the people lamenting Marjorie Taylor Greene’s departure from Congress—and celebrating her as some kind of principled maverick—are going to end up eating their words when she reemerges in 2028 to help lead a pro-groper, pro-Fuentes “America First” faction of the GOP.

Last night was a thumping from coast to coast. Across the country, voters rejected chaos and cynicism – and chose leaders who are focused on the cost of everyday life.

Donald Trump promised lower costs. Instead, his policies are hiking energy prices and squeezing working families.
While billionaires and fossil fuel companies reap the rewards, Trump is dismantling clean energy projects while Americans are left paying more just to keep the lights on.
