These republican women need to stop thinking they can weaponise the police

I wouldn't have made the joke Kimmel made, but it is fairly tame and doesn't strike me as reason for him to be reported to the police.

But I suppose that's "cancel culture" for you.

“... Marjorie Taylor Greene, this woman, Klan mom, is especially upset with the three Republican senators who said they’ll vote yes on Ketanji Brown Jackson, who’s nominated for the Supreme Court. She tweeted, ‘Murkowski, Collins and Romney are pro-pedophile. They just voted for KBJ.’ Wow, where is Will Smith when you really need him?”

Greene took Kimmel’s reference to Will Smith’s infamous Oscar slap very seriously indeed, to the point where she described Kimmel’s monologue as a “threat of violence against me” in a Twitter post, and claims to have reported the joke to the Capitol Police.

wait...she was ok to be called a "Klan mom" but took offense at the reference to Will Smith?

The reference was specifically about Will Smith's act of violence which many woke/libs/dems found reprehensible.

Again, you're overdoing the SJW virtue signaling routine.

Doesn't quite level with the GOP mantra about free speech does it though.

They call the left "snowflakes" and "woke" and claim the left is pushing "cancel culture" but then they try and do the same when the opportunity arises. She's trying to cancel Kimmel.

Greene is just trying to weaponise her privilege. It's so obvious.

Suggesting that someone should be physically assaulted is a wrong thing to say.

Completely irrelevant. You liking someone or disliking someone, doesn't change it being wrong. And I'm quite certain given your track record, if some MAGA said the same thing about a POC dem congresswoman, you'd be virtue signal protesting in maximum overdrive.

If this is baseball you just missed strike 3...

Marjorie Taylor Greene has threatened violence against her counterparts in the democrat party before. It's pretty rich for her to call the cops on Kimmel, Infact it borders on pathological mental behaviour that she can't see that she indulges in probably much worse conduct. Sarah Palin of course set the benchmark by having gun crosshairs on democrat politicians and Greene is certainly carrying the torch.

Pot calling the kettle black

Another Trumpist who should be in jail, She is also putting Ketanji Brown's life at risk.

I know little about either of them, as they're not particularly important. You seem to be rather emotionally wrapped up in them though. I hope you're not giving yourself ulcers over minor foreign politicians.

I doubt that either of them will soon see the inside of a jail cell.  Both have access to scads of lawyers and money.
