you do not and should not hand it to MTG under any circumstances
it is useful for us, politically, that she's broken with Trump - because "Rs in Disarray" is a good narrative
but she herself is still a vicious antisemite and transphobe and nobody progressive should lose sight of that

Should also add that right before she quit, Marjorie Taylor Greene passed a bill through the House to ban gender-affirming care for minors. She is not a moderate. She is still super right wing. She just felt Trump no longer could accomplish her goals.
“Our side has been trained by Donald Trump to never apologize and to never admit when you’re wrong.” Read the inside story of how Marjorie Taylor Greene went from zealous Trump cheerleader to his loudest Republican critic: nyti.ms/3Lbzi88

I don't even know what to say about this. Like, this guy Adin Ross makes money off self-hating antisemitism? Why would any NFL player who wanted to protect his ability to make endorsement money go on this guy's show?
On a livestream yesterday, Puka both:
- Said that the Refs throw flags that they know are bad to brag to their friends in group chats, and
- Told Adin Ross that he'd do a "covetous jew" celebration on his next TD score
Suspend him tbh
