Rules:

The mods are fallible; if you've been banned or had a post/comment removed, please appeal.
Off-topic posts will be removed. If you don't know what "Leopards ate my Face" is, try reading this post.
If the reason your post meets Rule 1 isn't in the source, you must add a source in the post body (not the comments) to explain this. If the reason is in the source but is tedious to find (e.g. in a lengthy video), you must add an explanation for where it is.
Posts should use high-quality sources (for a rough idea, check out this list), and posts should retain the title (if one exists) from works like news articles, videos, etc. You may (but need not) edit your post if the source changes the title. (If you're only using an excerpt from an article that's otherwise not about LAMF, you can use the quote in the title.) Other types of posts should have a title which accurately, relatively neutrally describes their contents.
For accessibility reasons, an image of text must either have alt text or a transcription in the post body.
Reposts within 1 year or the Top 100 of all time are subject to removal. Within moderator discretion, this doesn't just include reposts of the exact same media but also includes e.g. a secondary source telling basically the exact same story as another that was already posted.
This is not exclusively a US politics community. You're encouraged to post stories about anyone from any place in the world at any point in history as long as you meet the other rules.

As to why it (IMO) qualifies:

"My children are 22, 25, and 27. I will literally fight ANYONE for their future," Greene wrote. "And their future and their entire generation's future MUST be free of America LAST foreign wars that provoke terrorists attacks on our homeland, military drafts, and NUCLEAR WAR."

Hence, she feels her support is threatening her kids.

"MTG getting her face eaten" was not on my 2025 bingo card, though she is in the early stage of face eating.

Anyone else a little confused that this is their line in the sand? Not injecting bleach?

She is an actual Nazi. Her ideal scenario is Israel and Iran killing each other off, and that won't happen with an American invasion of Iran.

It’s actually a core tenant of actual “maga” not just “trump supporters” maga is extremely isolationist, a lot of them have experienced the Iraq war or had a child who did, it’s been maybe one of the very few consistent stances from maga from the start, they are staunchly against foreign war, “America first” is an explicitly isolationist slogan

This being so important to maga was actually one of the things I thought about first when I read about the Iran strikes, he’s absolutely abandoning a big chunk of the true believers and the thing about cults is it often only takes one thing to “shatter the glass” so to speak for some members, it just has to be the right thing to trigger it… there might be some serious fall out for him here at home over this

It's not really, MTG was already leaving the Senate and bashing the party/Senate before this, basically for not being conservative enough and too neoliberal.

My post is misleading TBH, I'm close to deleting it.

I’m guessing they see the writing on the wall with Trump losing more of his base, and want to vie for the favor of the people leaving that cult. There are a lot of voters that are gonna want another Trump-like persona to replace him.
