https://www.thedailybeast.com/marjorie-taylor-greene-tweets-predictably-fact-free-theory-about-highland-park-massacrePolice have released very little information about the person of interest in the Highland Park parade shooting, but Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) thinks she has it all figured out.
The conspiracy-minded congresswoman took to Twitter to somehow blame Big Pharma for the tragedy. When are we going to have an honest conversation about drug abuse, mental illness, and SSRIs [antidepressants]??? And deadly side effects. Are we really going to keep pretending? she tweeted.

To be clear, no one in any position of authority has said the man in custody, Robert Crimo, is a drug user or has a mental illness diagnosis, and his uncle said he knew of no such problems.

He obviously hate Democrats because the people in his town voted for a Democrat over his Republican daddy.
He's mediocre at best.
He loves trump.
He's a match made in heaven for you, maybe you can give him and rottonhouse a job.

I'd also bet that she has no intention of ever supporting measures that increase funding for mental health in this country.

Saturate that population with cheap, readily available semi-automatic firearms, and the number of those young men who can and will act with those weapons increases.

MTG is slacking off. She needs to amp up the insane conspiracy theories if she wants to remain America's Lunatic
