Will Someone Please Send a Globe to MTG's Stafffers?
Ok, maybe everything's been packed up as Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene prepares to leave office. But WTF? Can't you hire people with a basic understanding of world geography?
WASHINGTON — Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, R-Ga., slammed the Trump administration’s capture of Venezuelan leader Nicolás Maduro, saying on NBC News’ “Meet the Press” Sunday that the operation was part of “the same Washington playbook that we are so sick and tired of that doesn’t serve the American people.”
Greene argued that President Donald Trump and his administration “campaigned on Make America Great Again, that we thought was putting America first.”
“I want to see domestic policy be the priority that helps Americans afford life after four disastrous years of the Biden administration,” she told “Meet the Press” moderator Kristen Welker, pointing to policies to prioritize jobs, housing and health care.
Her comments come as lawmakers grapple with the operation that captured Maduro and his wife and brought them to the U.S., with lawmakers’ support largely falling along party lines. Greene has previously opposed Trump administration policies that she argued contradicted “America First” principles.
In Sunday’s interview, she said that “we don’t consider Venezuela our neighborhood.”
“Our neighborhood is right here in the 50 United States, not in the Southern Hemisphere,” she said.

While I agree with her sentiment about Venezuela but for different reasons, a quick look at the globe would reveal that the ENTIRE country of Venezuela is NORTH of the equator and therefore in the NORTHERN Hemisphere.
You'd think her staffers would have reviewed the talking points with her about that.
