She's still a nasty mean-girl. But she realized she got on the wrong side of a more powerful bully. There was no way she could pull off an about-face on Epstein. Her son's life was threatened. When Trump's gone, she'll be back like a bad penny.

I’ll throw my hat in:

Margorie James Taylor

Thought she wasn’t green

She came out guns blazing

She made such a big scene

But like a plebe at a fraternity hazing

She’s got egg on her face!

Squats in the morning

What is blonde? What is orange?

The sun on red dirt

Oh go fuck off Marge

The adults are in charge and

You've done nothing worthy to note

You've disgraced the chamber

Yet will be remembered

Less trustworthy than a stoat

Insider trading to keep you afloat

Your existence, just MAGA bloat.

(Apologies to proper poets; I'm exhausted, and there may have been Mount Gay rum involved this evening).

I don't get a lot of poetry, but Gary has hit this particular nail right on the head. His poesy has hit me right square between wherever things like this hit people.

Ta, Gary. We own mementos of Marjorie Taylor Greene's insanity: Dissent Pins! They say Secret Jewish Space Laser Corps -- Mazel Tough. My husband and I each own one. When antisemitism and anti-LGBTQ rhetoric started leaking into NYC, beloved Meccalopolis asked me to take mine, along with my rainbow gay pride button, off my jacket. I complied; he was, as always, protecting me. I treasure him, and our Dissent Pins.

Adieu. We may no longer have each other in Congress, but we'll always have the Musée des Confluences in Lyon.

Someone more clever than I described Marge's departure as "The devil went BACK down to Georgia", but sadly, she's probably still skulking around DC. Her boyfran is there, after all.

The sooner we'll stop hearing from/about her, the better.

Well when she dropped a dime on the Jewish space lasers you knew her days were limited.
