LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: Far-right representative Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga) sparked controversy over the weekend by sharing a social media post featuring an image of someone wearing a tinfoil hat, captioned, “Almost everyone in America right now.”

Greene, a staunch supporter of Donald Trump, endorsed the post on X, formerly known as Twitter, stating, “Yep.”

Critics pounce on Marjorie Taylor Greene's irony

The reaction was swift, with many critics mocking Marjorie Taylor Greene and accusing her of "projection." They pointed out her history of promoting various conspiracy theories.

One user wrote, "That would be you @mtgreenee."

Another user said, "This is literally you. LOL."

One user added, "I mean does your district not have Internet or Cable News?"

Another commented, "Says the one that relies on the History Channel for Weather... yea, okay!?!?"

One said, "Is tinfoil how they control the weather? Also, are they in the room with you right now?"

Another user said, "No Marjorie. This is only you."

One said, "This is peak projection."

Marjorie Taylor Greene’s history of conspiracy theories and controversial statements under scrutiny

Just this month, Marjorie Taylor Greene suggested that “they can control the weather,” hinting at the possibility that Democrats were somehow involved with Hurricane Helene, a claim likely aimed at enhancing Donald Trump’s 2024 election prospects.

Greene has a track record of embracing unfounded conspiracy theories, including the notorious QAnon narrative, advocating for the consumption of raw milk contrary to health guidelines, alleging that Jewish space lasers caused wildfires, and making comparisons between Trump and Jesus Christ.

In 2021, Georgia Rep Marjorie Taylor Greene came under fire for her past endorsements of political violence and extreme conspiracy theories, including anti-Muslim and antisemitic remarks made before her congressional election.

The House voted to remove her from committee assignments, while GOP leaders chose not to act against her earlier. A CNN KFile review highlighted the fringe nature of her statements.

In a floor speech, Greene attempted to distance herself from her conspiracy theories, expressing regret for having believed and discussed untrue claims. She attributed her situation to her social media activity and blamed the media for the scrutiny she faced.

In 2022, she even spoke at a White supremacist conference, according to HuffPost.

When former BBC news anchor Emily Maitlis confronted Greene in March about her promotion of discredited claims, Greene responded with a terse, “F**k off,” before walking away.
