Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene\u2002(R-Ga.) resurrected her calls for a \u201cnational divorce\u201d on Monday, arguing that Republican and Democratic states needed to be separated and the federal government needed to shrink, although it is unclear what prompted the thought.
\n\u201cWe need a national divorce. We need to separate by red states and blue states and shrink the federal government,\u201d Greene said on Twitter on Monday. \u201cFrom the sick and disgusting woke culture issues shoved down our throats to the Democrat\u2019s traitorous America Last policies, we are done.\u201d
\nIt was not the first time that Greene has suggested the idea of a \u201cnational divorce.\u201d In late 2021, Greene said voters who brought \u201cruin\u201d to California shouldn\u2019t be allowed to do the same to a state like Florida.
\n\u201cAll possible in a National Divorce scenario,\u201d Greene wrote on Twitter in December 2021. \u201cAfter Democrat voters and big donors ruin a state like California, you would think it wise to stop them from doing it to another great state like Florida. Brainwashed people that move from CA and NY really need a cooling off period.\u201d
\nGreene\u2019s renewed call for a national split came after she spent the morning criticizing President Biden\u2002for his unannounced trip to Ukraine, arguing that the president was ignoring domestic responsibilities to make his international visit.<\/p>\n
