Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:

- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning

She’s just going to push her own brand of awful. Don’t think for a second that she’s grown a conscience. Probably going to make a run for prez, hardline dictator instead of stupid dictator.
Leopards? My face? -MTG
She should be humble and quit.
And get replaced by someone else who is loyal to trump.
Glad to hear you have had this epiphany, no matter how you came to it. I'll be the first to say "good for you!" if you prove your sincerity by dropping out of politics and donating the substantial monetary gains you made via your influence and insider knowledge to worthy charities, preferably those helping people you harmed by your toxic influence. Then, having proved that you've really changed, you may legitimately continue speaking out against political hate and violence as a penance.
It’d be nice to have a remindmebot. Anyway, this is her voting record. I won’t say that this is my conclusion, but it’s possible that she’s just scared of being assassinated after Kirk. We’ll see whether she’ll manage to actually do something positive within a few months.
She learned this lesson, but is she actually a better person? Is she rethinking all of her odious stances and actions? I'm ready to applaud someone becoming a better person, even if she still has work to do on herself, but I'm also skeptical of any politician who sees the writing on the wall and makes a strategic course correction.
This is huge.
I understand everyone’s hesitation, but this is still huge.
My fingers are crossed that she means it.
My fingers are crossed that she means it.
She hasn't meant one fucking word she's spouted off into her dumbass base since she started in politics, and her actions in defending Trump and his administration put the same amount of blood on her hands. The number of people who died from mishandling of Covid, the number of US citizens who will die without healthcare options, the number of people who will die from the US abandoning science and the WHO, and of course the number of people who will die from the ending of USAID will be in the millions and millions.
No great president can turn it all around. Even if the best person for the job takes over tomorrow, it will take decades to undo the damage.
Fuck her. Fuck forgiving the worst people. Fuck people who get all the power in the world and use it to hurt the most vulnerable among us. She is the same as all of them.
Cool add her to the list of people who I'll wait for to resign and make reparations for the harm and suffering and death her lies and ignorance and hate caused. Any day now, right.
Why do you want them to resign when they could use their position to make things better?
Because nobody should trust what she says until her actions align with her apology and not more lies from someone who is just trying to hang on to the wealth and power they gathered by being a terrible person.
What makes you think her replacement will be any better?
What makes you think she is telling the truth now after years of lying to acquire wealth and privilege? If she is actually sorry then there will be actions taken to correct the awful things she's done and not just apologies. Thinking she's the only one who can fix it is a continuation of narcissism and hubris that led to the apology in the first place. The district she represents has around 800k people last census, none are qualified and have a better moral compass demonstrated by a voting history seems a long stretch.
Hey, better late than never, great that you finally realize the damage you've done.
However, not everyone deserves redemption.
Bullshit.
I'm torn. I'm not sure I believe it, but I also don't think she is capable of premeditated deceit. I hope I'm wrong, but i expect it to last as long as an idf cease fire.
Leopards, faces and what not.
@vegeta okay. Well done Marjorie. It's an admirable sentiment to express. But a lot of damage has already been done and I wouldn't be surprised if most Americans would feel it hard to trust that promise. But let's see how the next few years pan out. It should never be too hard to rebuild trust, but you have your work cut out for you, Marjorie. Best of luck.
