Summary

Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene asked her MAGA followers to send money to her 22-year-old son via Venmo to "buy him a beer."

Critics slammed the request as a "grift," noting her estimated $21.93 million net worth.

Social media users across the spectrum questioned why a wealthy congresswoman would solicit money for her adult son.

After the uproar, Greene deleted the post. The incident followed reports that she made significant Treasury trades before Trump’s tariff announcement, prompting further scrutiny over her financial conduct.

yes, yes that does in fact piss me right off.

Unfortunately she is merely one in a very long list of complete shitheads with wealth/power they don't deserve, and I can't be angry at that many people all the time. There aren't enough hours in the day.

    what, don't you keep track of these things somehow? I'm supposed to remember all the rich/powerful assholes in the world deserving of loathing, with just my memory? I can barely remember what I had for dinner last Tuesday.
