Mr. Snyder wrote two books on nazism. That’s two more books than all the books MTG ever read.

She even whipped out the good old “proof card”. Low effort.

and everything about Margie is set into cement. Whether that cement cracks and falls apart over time is moot. Right now, forget trying to get the woman to acknowledge anything she didn't read online from a fellow lunatic.

https://snyder.substack.com/p/political-warfare-and-congress

The essence of “political warfare,” in the sense defined by the Chinese communist party, is that Beijing uses media, psychology, and law to induce adversaries to do things counter to their own interests.

Political warfare works through you or it does not work. So if you are not willing to think about yourself, you are not thinking about political warfare.

I had the honor of testifying to Congress on the question of Chinese political warfare this past Wednesday, April 17th. This testimony was before the Oversight Committee, which has devoted months of time, money, and attention to an impeachment inquiry which is based on a mendacious claim by a man in contact with Russian intelligence services.

That congressional impeachment inquiry, based on a Russian fabrication, then became the subject of Chinese propaganda tropes, designed to spread the lie that President Biden took a bribe. This false notion, generated by Moscow, can only be spread by Beijing because there are Americans in the middle, American elected officials, who do their part.

I didn't recognize his name at first, so I searched him on Amazon and found out he's the author of On Tyranny, and a host of other books, many of which sound quite interesting. Take a look:

https://www.amazon.com/s?k=timothy+snyder+books&crid=2U8M6I161ZBQA&sprefix=Timothy+sny%2Caps%2C177&ref=nb_sb_ss_ts-doa-p_1_11

He wasn't kidding when he told Marge he's been studying and writing about this stuff for a long time.

I would give anything to see the look on her face after he made that little speech. She always has an air of "All y'all don't know nuthin' compared to me, Marge the All-Knowing."

She doesn't deserve to breathe and especially to breathe the same air as Timothy Snyder.

Here are some quotes from "media sources" for her:

Romans 1:28-32 English Standard Version 2016 (ESV)

And since they did not see fit to acknowledge God, God gave them up to a debased mind to do what ought not to be done. They were filled with all manner of unrighteousness, evil, covetousness, malice. They are full of envy, murder, strife, deceit, maliciousness.

ROMANS 1:28
"Since they did not see fit to acknowledge God, God gave them up to a debased mind to do what ought not to be done."

The Apostle explains that God hands people over to a "debased mind to do what ought not to be done" as a consequence for failing to acknowledge Him (v. 28). If we will not have the Lord at the center of our hearts and minds, then God is content to give us over to our idols.

While Dr. Snyder's response sounded wonderful, I doubt anything more than mtg's speech made it to the right-wing news. As long as she gets in her two cents worth, as caustic as it may seem, and as good as the response is, maggots don't hear a thing except what they want to.
Logic? Forget it!. Well reasoned response? Nope. Own the libtards, and he must be a libtard!!!!!!

... chased the teenaged David Hogg, a survivor of the Marjory Stonemason Douglas school shooting, down the street in D.C. screaming insults at him and accusing him of being a "crisis actor" or some such shit, while recording the entire verbal assault.
And the inbred, web-footed pinheads in her district actually elected her to the House of Representatives, not once, but TWICE!
I have zero respect for their judgement or their character. Now we can see, first-hand, what happens when cousins marry.
