Crazy Train
Marjorie Taylor Greene followed conspiracy threads long enough to find herself immersed in a legitimate one.
Marjorie Taylor Greene followed conspiracy threads long enough to find herself immersed in a legitimate one.
She established herself as a public figure online, publishing on conspiracy-related articles on a pair of websites, prior to QAnon’s rise. During the 2020 election, Greene’s campaign jumped from the 6th GA Congressional district to MAGA Country (14th-GA), a more favorable district with a retiring incumbent. Greene has always supported Trump’s lie that the 2020 elections were illegitimate, she proved openly anti-Semitic and anti-Muslim in words and deeds during her first term, and demonstrated her commitment to not doing anything about mass shootings when she posted a video of herself firing an AR-15 out of a helicopter, reminiscent of strafing a rice paddy.
The media and the public have taken note that Greene has been separating herself from Trump for months now, over the Epstein files. She has long made it her mission to expose the Deep State, and lo and behold—Jeffrey Epstein acted an awful lot like an international arms dealer, taking audiences with Presidents and Princes, exerting influence and with each effort put forth, making himself more influential.
All the while, trafficking in minor girls. The last shared American moral value, perhaps—opposition to the sexual exploitation of minors.
All conspiracy theories are moral in their foundation, which is why the moralists like Greene and Nancy Mace stood out as early MAGA proponents for disclosing Epstein file contents.
The Conspiracy Theory
There’s a conceptual difference between a “conspiracy theory” and a “conspiracy” — it is whether the teller believes it to be true.
Over the past 96 hours, we have seen the vote to reopen the federal government (with no guarantee of preserving ACA subsidies) when 8 Democratic Senators (none of whom are up for re-election in 2026) crossed the aisle (with or without the coordination or participation of Democratic Senate Minority Leader and anti-Mamdani Activist Chuck Schumer). Then Adelita Grijalva was sworn into Congress and became the 218th signature on the petition to hold a vote on disclosing the contents of the Epstein files. That is scheduled for next week.
There was also a release of a handful of emails from the Epstein files, where we discover that Trump lied about having nothing to do with Epstein after their “falling out” over the “stolen” teen “masseuses.” They were hanging (and banging?) into Trump’s first term. Then there’s the 2018 note from Epstein’s brother (not Epstein’s mother, of Welcome Back Kotter fame) alluding to photos Putin might have of “Trump blowing Bubba.”
Tsuris is Yiddish for “troubles.” A careful reader will catch that “Bannon” was spending the prior afternoon with Jeffrey Epstein.
Substitute teachers can attest Heywood Jablowme shows up on classroom attendance sheets in schools across the country, despite no person actually ever having been given such a moniker. “Bubba” could be Epstein associate Bill Clinton (Epstein once commissioned a painting of Clinton wearing the same blue dress as Hillary Clinton wore when meeting Bruce Springsteen), as we all recognize that to be one of his nicknames. Word is, it was also the name of a horse once owned by Ghislaine Maxwell—which does not paint a better picture.
Regardless, just because there’s a blowjob reference being made doesn’t mean it actually happened. Statutory rape happened. We know that. The files will make it clearer who was involved.
Trump threw up a Hail Mary, making a big deal out of Democrats, calling the Epstein files a “hoax” (tantamount to a confession, based on his repeated use of that particular word to describe material facts that implicate him in wrongdoing), and siccing Pam Bondi—who created this mess with her outright denial there were files—on everyone to be found in the files, but Donald Trump.
Trump is desperately offering cover to Republicans, who now may claim they voted to keep the Epstein files sealed will be because there is an ongoing criminal investigation taking place and we do not want to corrupt the evidence, like we are FBI Director Kash Patel releasing obvious AI-composed “confessions,” and photos of “ANTI-ICE” written on a bullet casing, within hours of shootings.
Reports are Marjorie Taylor Greene sent a text to Trump on November 14, asking him to release the Epstein files. This was his public reply:
I prefer the brevity of “I am not a crook.” — R. M. Nixon.
