That’s insane. Drag shows have been part of military fun for decades. Bob Hope dressed in drag for some of his USO show performances in the 70s. With what they go through, the last thing they need are more restrictions on having fun. Want to help those in the military? How about VFW healthcare, Marjorie?

How about VFW healthcare, Marjorie?

Now I’m trying to imagine Greene doing anything useful or helpful for anyone. I can’t do it. It does not compute. Her constituency sent her to Congress to be vile and cause chaos, so I guess she does that. What a waste of votes.

By not doing healthcare and attacking trans, Marge gets to punch down on TWO groups, so it's a win.

Imagine being in the Military because you wanted to fight for freedom, and then you watch as elected officials try to take your freedom of expression away first.

Why do I get the feeling she wants to ban women from the military too.
