Marjorie Taylor Greene May Have Had Multiple Alleged Affairs, But Those Are the Least of Her Christian Anglo-Saxon American Hypocrisies

On the evening of Feb. 20, 1939, Madison Square Garden was the scene of a packed gathering of the proudly pro-Hitler Nazi Bund with a giant banner of George Washington in the background.
Only recently has footage been assembled of the event in a documentary by Director Marshall Curry, which revealed the event was billed as “patriotic” and “pro-American.” NPR quotes Arnie Bernstein, an author who has written about Nazis in America:
"There's something they tapped into that is part of America," said Bernstein, who pointed to the 1978 attempt by Nazis to march in Skokie, Illinois, the resurgence of the Ku Klux Klan in response to the civil rights movement of the 1950s and 1960s and the 2017 Unite the Right rally in Charlottesville, Va. "Eighty years later, the philosophy is still there," Bernstein said. "All these groups maintain that they are patriotic Americans — and this is the America that they see."
NPR also noted,
One of the main speakers, Gerhard Wilhelm Kunze, the national public relations director of the Bund, pointed to the white supremacy present at America's founding as a nation. "The spirit which opened the West and built our country is the spirit of the militant white man," he preached. Kunze followed the thread of racism that runs through American history to bolster his vision for a whites-only America. He cited anti-miscegenation laws, the Chinese Exclusion Act, Jim Crow policies and immigration quotas. "It has then always been very much American to protect the Aryan character of this nation," Kunze told the audience.
Is there much difference between the political outlook of the American Nazi Party and Marjorie Taylor Greene’s proposed America First Caucus, from which she now is backpedaling until she can fine tune the incendiary language extolling an “Anglo-Saxon” America?
Being the hypocrite that she is, Greene blamed the explosion over her America First Caucus as a mere kerfuffle that the media had blown out of proportion. In contrast to the virtuous civility she claims, she excoriated others in vulgarities for the blowback on her America First plans, according to the Hill:
“On Friday, sick and evil POS [pieces of shit] in the media attacked me with phrases I never said or wrote. They released a staff level draft proposal from an outside group that I hadn’t read. The scum and liars in the media are calling me a racist by taking something out of context," Greene tweeted.
"It’s more proof so-called journalists lie and create false narratives," she continued. "The media are the ones focused on race & use it to divide the American people with hate through identity politics."
She regularly uses profanity to uphold alleged white Christian values, including calling Nancy Pelosi a bitch and indicating that she should be shot in the head on Facebook.
Shockingly, her blatant hypocrisy was revealed yet again when she tried to extricate herself from the American First Caucus firestorm, as the Hill quotes her astonishing “my fingers are crossed behind my back” assertion:
I believe in America First with all my heart and that means every American, of every race, creed, and color.
Yes, she did disingenuously say this after her America First Caucus agenda was “leaked” as a white supremacist manifeso, even if she claims someone else wrote it:
America is a nation with a border, and a culture, strengthened by a common respect for uniquely Anglo-Saxon political traditions. History has shown that societal trust and political unity are threatened when foreign citizens are imported en-masse into a country, particularly without institutional support for assimilation and an expansive welfare state to bail them out should they fail to contribute positively to the country.
BuzzFlash does not normally get into the sexual personal lives of politicians or really anyone, but this 0ctober 9, 2020, New Yorker article appears to nail Greene for gross hypocrisy of being a “Christian” mother:
When, eight years later, it looked like she might be headed to Congress, [Jim] Chambers got on social media and told the world that, back when he knew Greene, she was having “multiple, blatant extramarital affairs in front of all of us.” He added, “I don’t even judge that, until you say the kind of shit she does and claim the Jesus about it.” (Greene, who was baptized at an evangelical church in a suburb just north of Atlanta, in 2011, and speaks frequently about being Christian, has said that she wants to bring “my faith and my family values to Washington.”)
I spoke to one of the men with whom Greene allegedly had an affair. He asked not to be named and told me that he, too, was bothered by Greene’s hypocrisy. He provided me with a screenshot of a text exchange in which Greene acknowledged sleeping with him. “She never talked about politics,” he said. He told me he later learned that she was also sleeping with another man who was not her husband, “while the whole time being ‘super Christian.’ ” He added, “She’s not the pro-family, pro-Christian, strong-business woman she touts herself to be.”
The New Yorker then points out that neither Greene nor her attorney at the time, the mentally challenged Lin Wood, directly refuted the charges.
When it was recently disclosed that Greene has been a Qanon advocate, an exponent of violence against Democrats, and a disseminator of conspiracy theories, Mitch McConnell excoriated her:
“Loony lies and conspiracy theories are cancer for the Republican Party and our country. Somebody who’s suggested that perhaps no airplane hit the Pentagon on 9/11, that horrifying school shootings were pre-staged, and that the Clintons crashed JFK Jr.’s airplane is not living in reality. This has nothing to do with the challenges facing American families or the robust debates on substance that can strengthen our party.”
She responded in a tweet that, "The real cancer for the Republican Party is weak Republicans who only know how to lose gracefully.” This is also the credo of her mentor, Trump. The real political test for her is how hard you are willing to dig in to win. It’s not about policy; it’s about combativeness.
Finally, last week revealed that Greene is not just a cause of deaths with her Trump-inspired hesitancy on vaccination and public health measures, she joined fellow loony Congresswoman Lauren Boebert (R-CO) last week to be one of only two members of the House (415-2 tally) to vote against a national registry of bone marrow donors to match up with Leukemia patients who need transplants. The duo claimed incredulously that the bill would add to the national debt, and that it involves abortion fetus research, which it does not.
So, just add more illness and death to Marjorie Taylor Greene’s account, as she hypocritically vows that she is pro-life when she is causing so many losses.
And that’s why Marjorie Taylor Greene is the BuzzFlash GOP Hypocrite of the week.
So many Republicans, so little time.
