MTG just loves conspiracy theories
There are many outrageous conspiracy theories out there, and while most of us learn about them and have a good laugh, others take them very seriously. It's concerning, however, when politicians like Marjorie Taylor Greene believe in them and actively promote them.
Her belief in these theories doesn't put off followers

What is even more shocking is that Marjorie Taylor Greene's public sharing and support of these bizarre and sometimes dangerous theories doesn't seem to scare off her supporters. On the contrary, many love Greene BECAUSE she support these conspiracy theories.

 

What theories does MTG subscribe to?

So what exactly does the Georgia state Representative believe? Starting out in her first year in power, Marjorie Taylor Greene, hopped on board the 'Stop the Steal' train and spoke publicly about how Biden's win in 2020 was the result of election fraud.

 

 

Dangerous comments

In addition, Greene spoke out loudly about how she believed the Black Lives Matter movement was a communist terrorist group. Yikes. Unsurprisingly, MTG's comments resulted in her being stripped of two committee assignment for promotion of conspiracy theories and endorsement of political violence.

 

Tame compared to other things she believe

But the whole election fraud claim and her comments about the Black Live Matter movement while terrible are pretty tame compared to some of the other conspiracy theories MTG subscribes to. One of the wildest ones over the years was the claim that Jewish space lasers were the cause of Californian wildfires.

Jewish space lasers caused Californian wildfires

The California Camp Fire in the fall of 2018, among the most destructive wildfires to ever hit California, left the state in crisis. Naturally, the people wearing tin foil hats came up with a wacky explaination as to why the fires occured and Marjorie Taylor Greene ate it up.

 

Space lasers?!

QAnon conspiracy theorists claimed that the fires in California were started by a wealthy Jewish family who used laser beams in space to start the fires. A theory that has been (obviously) debunked.

Greene wrote about the theory on Facebook

Naturally Greene shared her knowledge about the theory on Facebook, stating she believed the Rothschild investment bank created the lasers. "Could that cause a fire? Hmmm, I don't know," she said about space laser beams in her Facebook post. She continued, "I hope not! That wouldn't look so good for PG&E, Rothschild Inc, Solaren or Jerry Brown who sure does seem fond of PG&E."

"Pizzagate"

Next, we really must discuss how Greene fell into the "Pizzagate" lie.  "Pizzagate" is a conspiracy theory that came out in 2016 and was the precursor to QAnon. Those who subscribed to theory made the wild claim that Hillary Clinton ran a child trafficking ring based in a DC pizzeria.

Green promoted the Pizzagate theory

In 2017 Marjorie Taylor Greene promoted the theory on her blog in 2017. As reported by CNN, MTG  shared a link in one of her blog posts that led to a website that claimed that "Pizzagate" was real.

Greene seems to really believe it

In the post about "Pizzagate", Greene wrote, "Shockingly, the website tells about information that was only whispered about and called conspiracy theories."

How could she really believe this?!

It is incredibly hard to believe someone elected into congress could buy into the next one, but Greene certainly did. It almost seems like the more bizarre the theory is, the more likely MTG is to believe it.

 

Ruth Bader Ginsburg replaced by a body double

MTG has publicly spoken about how she supports the theory (which is very popular in the QAnon circle) that Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg had died and been replaced by a body double.

Not the real Ruth

In Februrary of 2019, Greene appeared as a guest on a pro-Trump and was asked her opinion on whether she thought it was the "real" Ruth or a body double regarding a recent public appearance of Ruth Bader Ginsburg.

"I do not believe that was Ruth."

Marjorie Taylor Greene responded, "I do not believe that was Ruth. I don't think so." So if it wasn't Ruth Bader Ginsburg who was it then? MTG definitely believed the body-double theory!

 

QAnon

Now, it shouldn't come as a surprise that Marjorie Taylor Greene buys into the QAnon conspiracy theory. QAnon is a disproven conspiracy theory popular among the far right. Pictured, the QAnon flag

Watch out for Satanic cannibals

The QAnon theory claims that a secret cabal of cannibalistic, Satan-worshipping child abusers controls a worldwide child sex trafficking ring.

Satanists conspiring against Trump?

Of course, apart from abusing minors, the evil group, according to QAnon believers, also conspired against Donald Trump when he was in office.

 

Marjorie spoke about "Q" on YouTube

Marjorie has clearly spoken about the QAnon theories and has even been filmed while doing so. Back in 2017 Greene spoke about "Q" and called him a "patriot" in a YouTube video.

MTG said she wanted those Satan worshippers out!

In the same video, Marjorie also said, "There's a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to take this global cabal of Satan-worshipping child abusers out, and I think we have the president to do it."

Just the tip of the iceberg

Marjorie Taylor Greene believes plenty of wacky things and these theories are just the tip of the iceberg! During COVID she had a hay-day spouting about her weird theories and at other times has even claimed school shootings were staged! But that's a story for another day, when it comes to conspiracy theories and MTG it seems the material is never ending!
