Marjorie Taylor Greene's resigning in time to get a pension is a lesson to everyone.
Most Americans don't get *any* pension anymore, but Congress gave itself a pension after only five years of work.
Our "representatives" aren't working for us, they are [barely] working for themselves.

Though I learned the valuable lessons that we are NOT the country we thought we were, and that some of my neighbors are NOT decent people.
Oh and that "American Christian" is apparently an oxymoron.

They’re doing eugenics right out in the open now, largely because Trump, RFK Jr, Dr Oz and the rest of the fascists have been pushing a eugenicist agenda since they seized control.
It’s white Christian nationalism and it’s dangerous.

They need to learn they’re not above the law.
