Greene said a GOP-led House would launch 'investigations' of corporations that stopped donations to Republicans denying the 2020 presidential election results.

on January 6, 2021—when an angry mob of Trump supporters who believed the former president's election fraud claims breached the Capitol in an ill-fated attempt to stop the certification.donating to Republicans after the insurrection, suggesting that GOP politicians would pursue revenge after Bannon asked her whether corporations needed to"fear" a"populist House."

"Let's just put it like this," Greene responded."You know what they did after January 6th, Steve? They stopped donating—all the lobbyists, all the big corporations stopped donating to a whole bunch of my Republican colleagues that they used to donate to. They said, 'oh no, we can't support you because of the big lie,' or whatever they want to call it."

"That's not going to be forgotten by a whole bunch of my Republican colleagues, because that was really ridiculous and wrong," she continued."There is going to be investigations coming. And there should be, because the way corporations have conducted themselves ... I've always called it corporate communism."

Greene went on to say that corporations"probably should get a lawyer." She urged them to stay out of politics and focus solely"on customer service."," which she predicted would eventually be vanquished by a"patriot economy." The nature of the congressional investigations that Greene has predicted is unclear. Corporations and lobbyists do not have any legal obligations to donate to any particular politicians or political candidates.

Marge, this is American and We have the right to not donate to terrorist organizations such as the GOP. Trump lost, he knows it, you know it. Americans do not want to support a seditious espionage traitor such as Trump!

Sounds like extortion to me

So basically the GOP is now a mafia-style protection racket. If you don't pay them a monthly fee, they'll firebomb your business.

The GOP hates the free market.

…for what?

That is crazy. No person or company is obligated to donate money to any candidate of any party. Or shouldn't be. They should be and can stop their donations at any time for whatever reason. 🙄

Cray cray crazy!

And then what?

Todays modern GOP is for Big Government acting as Big Brother. Crazy decade of change.

Perhaps she forgot justice Scalia declared money is speech.

We don't need more freaking investigations! We can give to what we want to and not give to what we don't want to.

Steroids ya think?
