Right-wing Georgia Republican insists she opposes continuing resolution because she does not want to fund the defence of Ukraine

Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene was furious on Thursday after Congress passed a bill that will prevent a partial government shutdown.

Ms Greene told The Independent that she opposed enacting a continuing resolution — necessary to avoid this weekend's deadline to have budgets in place — based on her opposition to US funding for Ukraine in its defence against Russia.

The Democratic-led Senate voted 77-18, and the Republican-led House followed suit, voting 314-108, in favour of the bill.

"I'm voting no to this funding bill, absolutely. I'm not going to vote for the CR," she said.

She then claimed the war in Ukraine was "pretty much over."

She's a Russian asset. She knows what she's doing.

I disagree. She's bought cheap and doesn't ask questions. She doesn't know what she's doing, she's too stupid to understand.

Well, whether she does or doesn't, she is still a traitor and should receive the same treatment either way.

Now, what was it conservatives are always saying traitors deserve? I forget...

She lacks the depth and warmth to be a cunt.

I'm not even sure she has one. She's probably smooth down there like Barbie. That's probably part of the problem. Decades of repressed sexual urges that can't be tamed.
