Petitioners are trying to link MTG to lines from the movie Independence Day.

Judge cannot control laughter.

Wow @RepMTG is being asked in a courtroom to disown the liking of The Constitution and the Civil War and,  bizarrely, my film Independence Day— specifically a scene where I volunteer my services as a pilot to take down the Aliens! WITCH-HUNT!

I’m here in Atlanta to support

This is here in Atlanta?  Today?  And I missed it?  DAMN!  I would have taken a day off of work for this.

I hope that there's a mention of the name of the building where this court is located.  The Democrats named it after the US Senator who led the filibuster against the 1964 Civil Rights Act.

Good deal on Gosar and Biggs.  Gosar is my guy....

Thanks for this update, @Right_in_Virginia!  (Funny side note:  Gosar needed to move because his city was redistricted out of this 75% Republican District, so he moved to a place a couple miles from me in BHC.)

The Dems know they'll lose at the voting booth, so, they'll try to win in the courts.

I can't see how someone not convicted of a crime can be disqualified, but, I know them Dems will try to show us.

The GOP needs to develop a deep bench, so, when Dems use legal maneuvers to disqualify a Republican candidate ... the GOP response can be, "Next man up."

Not just unconvicted.  These people haven't even been charged with a crime.

This is obviously the strategy. And I don’t think they’re gonna give up so easily after losing this

Marjorie Taylor Greene's Court Appearance for Alleged 'Insurrection' Was Absolutely Bonkers
By Bonchie | Apr 22, 2022 5:45 PM ET

I’ll admit to forgetting this was a thing, but apparently, Democrat activists are still trying to get Marjorie Taylor Greene thrown off the 2022 ballot under the guise that she promoted an insurrection.

What’s the evidence to support such a contention? Apparently, the use of common historical terms and the movie “Independence Day.” I’m not kidding. Greene took the stand, and what followed was just bonkers.

Here’s a taste of how silly things got.


https://twitter.com/JackPosobiec/status/1517604376805785603

Greene previously used the phrase “we will not go quietly into the night,” which prompted a showing of “Independence Day” in the courtroom (again, I’m not kidding), after which the congresswoman said that she did not get her inspiration from the movie. Of note is that the phrase is common, and as Greene notes, it first appeared in a poem during the mid-20th century. In other words, Hollywood ripped it off, and this looney lawyer didn’t even realize it, asserting that Greene saying it somehow meant she…had a desire to foment insurrection?

I mean, heck, that scene in “Independence Day” is not even about insurrection. It’s about governments preserving themselves and their people by killing aliens. But BlueAnon is nothing if they aren’t absolutely insane.

@mystery-ak

I seriously doubt he didn't know that,but he is a prosecuting attorney,and his job is to lie in a professional manner in order to get convictions.

Of course,defense attorneys also lie for a living because their jobs are to get their clients found to be not guilty of anything they are charged with,not justice.

We just all pretend none of this is true.

I didn’t know that Randy Quaid had conservative leanings. Am I wrong?

His character in the movie “Christmas Vacation” carried that movie
