This sounds like a joke, but it’s about Marjorie Taylor
Greene and she has zero sense of humor, so, you know, it must be true [hint: it
is].
After the confirmation vote for Justice Ketanji Brown
Jackson, Large and In Charge Marge was all kinds of butt-hurt and labeled the
three Republicans who voted to confirm—Susan Collins, Mitt Romney and Lisa
Murkowski—as “pro-pedophile” and when talk show host Jimmy Kimmel heard
about that he said:
“Wow, where is Will Smith when you really need him?”
In response Marge called the Capitol Police—the very group she
denigrated after the Insurrection—to report the threat of assault. Luckily, the
Capitol Police have enough on their plate, and they put Marge’s complaint in
the Circular File, and so she took to Twitter:
“You weren’t joking. You hide your misogyny and your racism
behind your ‘jokes’ on @ABC. This was a dog whistle to the violent left to
assault me or worse, and your [sic] already inspiring fantasies of violence
against me. How many new death threats will I get that are your fans?”
And she went on:
“@jimmykimmel your fans called my office today in direct
response to you inciting physical violence towards me. It’s not a joke. You
knew exactly what you were doing. @ABC and their parent company @WaltDisneyCo
should not allow your misogyny & threats of violence.”
Kimmel addressed her TwitRage—first pointing out a misspelled
“your” in one of her tweets—and noted that he gets death threats from her QAnon
minions and that she “is the one who
endorsed fringe conspiracy theories” and “repeatedly indicated support for
executing prominent Democratic politicians.” And then Kimmel followed her lead
and reported her, oh not to the police, but to the Justice League, writing:
“Dear Batman,
I’m writing about a woman who might be a supervillain. Like
the Riddler she believes the world is full of coded messages. Like the Joker
she thinks she is funny, and like the Penguin she is five foot three. Please
check her out. Love to Robin.
Love, Jimmy.”
At press time for this
post, Marge hasn’t sent Poison Ivy after Jimmy … yet.
