Summary

Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene asked her MAGA followers to send money to her 22-year-old son via Venmo to “buy him a beer.”

Critics slammed the request as a “grift,” noting her estimated $21.93 million net worth.

Social media users across the spectrum questioned why a wealthy congresswoman would solicit money for her adult son.

After the uproar, Greene deleted the post. The incident followed reports that she made significant Treasury trades before Trump’s tariff announcement, prompting further scrutiny over her financial conduct.

      Ooh, i want to Secretary of THAT Department! I promise I’ll keep them all sharpened, of course, but also polished so they glint pretty in the sunshine. Theyll need to be generously lubricated, as well, so they drop with a satisfying metallic swish, and not a fingernails-on-a-blackboard screech.

      After that, its all about pageantry. We’ll need a DJ, lights, food trucks, sponsors, cheerleaders, etc.
