Was reading recently, but don’t have a link at hand. It’s a MTG talking point that Zelensky took US aid money to Ukraine and bought two yachts with it.
She’s repeated this claim, alongside other GOP congresspeople, in Congress when campaigning against bills that would assist Ukraine against Russia.
Turns out, the entire story was fabricated by an online newspaper based in Russia out of whole cloth, then QAnon/MAGA picked up on the story on Truth Social, and the Russian disinformation spread to Marjorie Taylor Green who is now vocally using it to support Russia by removing aid from the country they’re invading.
She only has to be smart enough to fool her constituents, who seem to be pretty gullible and unconcerned about how stupid they look when voting for her. Makes liberals cry? Check.
57000 of them voted for her (unopposed) in the primary.
Four democrats split 18000 votes.
Details 3 Republican Senators parroting the Russian disinformation they were fed, as they champion legislative actions to assist Russia in their invasion.
