'We are not fooled': Internet mocks Marjorie Taylor Greene as she warns netizens of 'Russia Hoax 2.0'
NEW YORK CITY, NEW YORK: Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene blamed the United States Intelligence for spreading the 'collusion with Russia' narrative to influence voters ahead of the elections over X (formerly Twitter) on February 4.
While Greene claimed that she only cared about her country, netizens did not completely buy into the narrative and called her out on the social media platform.

The Georgia representative shared a clip of herself being interviewed, where a journalist is seen asking her about her views on Vladimir Putin after right-wing media personality Tucker Carlson recently interviewed the Russian president and portrayed him in a "more sympathetic" light.
In response, Greene said, "I don't really care about Vladimir Putin. I don't really care about Russia ... I think people are really disgusted with the state of America, and I am really disgusted with the media that wants to constantly throw Russia in our faces because I don't care about Russia. I care about America, I care about the people that are here voting, and I care about fixing our country."
"The Intelligence Community is already starting their new media dissemination campaign for Russia Hoax 2.0," she wrote in her post.
"They used the Trump 'Russia Russia Russia' collusion hoax as a way to remove President Trump and undermine an election. Now they want to do the same thing to me and other members of Congress. Remember, they’re not coming after President Trump, they’re coming after all of us, he’s just in their way!" Greene said.
"For the record, I am permanently BANNED from Russia. I couldn’t travel there if I wanted to — and I don’t," she added.
"I only care about America and the American people. This is coordinated election interference by the Democrats to influence the 2024 election and defeat President Trump," Greene wrote.
