In a new video, MeidasTouch’s blue dot in a red state, Tennessee Brando, highlights Alexandria Ocasio Cortez’s recent trolling of Marjorie Taylor Greene. After Greene was appointed head of the subcommittee to oversee the fictional Department of Hovernment Efficiency (DOGE), AOC posted on X that it was actually a good thing, because Greene never does any work, and it would be like handing someone an “unplugged controller” to a video game, like we would do with our little siblings as kids.
Brando celebrates “trolling the trolls” and calls out the ultimate troll MTG for her continued bizarre loyalty to Donald Trump, despite Trump never reciprocating any attention to her, like the time he got off his plane and walked right by her while she was waving at him furiously. With all due respect and love to Michelle Obama, we no longer go high when they go low. We are in the mud now, Brando says, and it is time to fight back. It is fitting to hit back at someone like MTG, who has made her career about attacking people.
Brando warns about the consequences of handing power to individuals like Elon Musk, Trump’s new “First Buddy,” who are only out to benefit themselves at the expense of our democracy and livelihoods.
Brando reaffirms his commitment to speaking out and advocating for justice, along with all of the other pro-democracy creators, editors, researchers, and writers at MeidasTouch Network. We don’t have billionaire investors. Please consider becoming a paid subscriber today.
Don't give Elon any credit for his 'clever' use of DOGE and pronounce it the way he wants. It's to be pronounced like 'doggie'. Credit to Heather Cox Richardson. :)
He's Elon Muck to me now, courtesy of autocorrect. 😂
I refer to him as Melon Husk!
Ian lusk has always been corrupt
Elon Muck is a great name for him !
Or perhaps Felon Muck?
You don't ask it's nothing but a piece of shit and always out there is for the money he doesn't care about the people we cannot let him get in to the white gosh a scum of the earth just like trump and some of it's smuggy or whatever his name is
A long mouse gives nothing but a scum.A smug So BI don't like you so I don't like anything about him.I never have and I never will like him.He's a piece of s***, just like Donald Trump.And smile a slimy
Or it sound like "dodge" except the second D is silent and invisible. They ALL are trying to dodge something in their closets.
Exactly. I say give them a dose of their own medicine. MTG does not deserve to be treated like a decent human being because she is not one. Fight back!
YES!! I have been saying this and getting chastised by fellow liberals about this type of fighting back! Come on~! We are LOSING the information wars! BAD! We are on the side of the right, but Republicans have stolen the narratives. We cannot win in this regard if we do not engage and clap back against disinformation! We don't have to do it all day long, or every time all the time, but we must be strategic and put our counterpoints out there. Choose battles wisely and carefully--fighting smart is how to win.
Exactly 💯. Counter trolling is way over due.
Right!
Agree. I don't understand weepy liberals. They need to get a backbone.
Indeed--we allow ourselves to get incinerated on principle instead of fighting fire with fire.
I think even Michelle and Barack Obama no longer think going high works. I loved her at the DNC. Gloves are off!
Well said! Slay the trolls!
I love how AOC has a very "wicked" tongue in just the right way!
We tried playing nice and here we are. Let the muckraking commence!
You're right. We're tired of playing nice and now it's time to play. Dirty Trump is Maine's wanna play Dirty. We can play more dirtier than he can and will take him down. Like his dirty diaper will take him down and destroy him and his nominees.
Like Mac ma l ML mosque. It's a swanny
Love it! Keep trolling the trolls and give them a dose of their own medicine. Keep up the good work. A Meidas Mighty from Hawaii!!!!!
Love you. Keep on. We never needed you more. Thanks.
great going and more power to you
It's time for a new generation to step up to the new age of politics and create a stronger version of the Democratic Party. AOC, Crockett and a few other are attempting to do just that and the more we support them the stronger they will get. I may be 62 but I have never given in to bullies and never will. What S.M has turned into is a bunch of hateful ranting and no one knows who the ppl doing this really are and id bet most of them won't ever reveal themselves bc of the luxury of hiding behind a phone or laptop
Good man! Thank you for your great moral courage
Thank you Brando for all you do. You rock!
Great piece 🎯‼️
How to Stop Authoritarians Before They Start
🔸️FITNESS FOR DUTY EVALUATIONS that are mandatory, like the military for high responsibility positions, would have stopped Trump before he got within a mile of the White House.
Bandy X Lee, Steven Hassan, and 100 other psychiatrists agree Trump has five dangerous mental pathologies as listed in the books "The More Dangerous Case of Donald Trump" and "The Psychology Of Trump Contagion - An Existential Threat to American Democracy and All Humankind".
"Containing Trump Contagion and Healing from Mental Pathology in Politics"
https://youtu.be/HTkCqU5LM-k?si=f6g0PolglC21w1nR
🔸️Fitness for Duty Evaluations start with everyone who interacts with the individual in question, and when red flags start to appear, 'say something.'
The US Military has procedures to follow that require individuals in question to have a Fitness for Duty Evaluation. Voters must demand the House and Senate do the same.
"Stephen Xenakis- Fitness for Duty Exams: Preventing Autocratic Abuse"
https://youtu.be/vdtChF07ryU?si=VJ5dauWFoUQg10uH
🔸️Outside the military are professionals like Dr. Bandy X. Lee who has several dozen colleagues all of whom are highly qualified to do Fitness for Duty Evaluations.
The U.S. House and Senate have several mechanisms to enforce their rules, including:
* Leadership
* Committees
* Floor Procedures
* Party Discipline
It's important to note that these mechanisms are not always used consistently or effectively. The more voters demand mentally fit leaders the more the House and Senate will comply.
🔸️I like what forensic psychologist Dr. Bandy X. Lee says that fascism and authoritarianism are just dangerous mental pathologies that worm their way into politics.
Everyone on Earth deserves and demands leadership that is mentally fit.
Fitness for Duty Evaluations performed by well respected psychiatrists ensures every country has leaders who do not serve their own power, but serve their own people.
With a pool of mentally fit candidates, we then have all the elections we wish.
My favorite troll of Marjorie Taylor Greene
She throws a temper tantrum every time someone mentions Jewish space lasers
Pick Me Greene
Trailer trash Greene is another version of Lil Lindsey Graham with brown on its nose and orange lipstick. Are we sure Greene is female?
The incoming Kakistocracy think they can do anything they want based on convict 🍊👶🤡 not being held accountable. They have another thing coming!
You’re the man Brando! Love listening to you.
I love this guy!!! He is in my state. The best we have.
Schadenfreude...joy at the misfortune of others. A lovely German word that operationally means that my black heart is laughing. Laughing when Joe SixPack realizes he has lost his health insurance because Fox News never told him that the ACA is actually Obama Care. Love it.
Time for the Dems to get dirty and play for keeps before we're all steamrollered into oblivion. But the old farts in the Dem "leadership" will not do what is necessary - they never have and they never will.
Hey there's a reason this old fart has remained an independent for years. I feel like Treebeard. I'm not on anyone's side because no one is on my side. 🤷. One party is less obviously and immediately dangerous.
Exactly…in this case, only fighting fire with fire is the way to move forward! MAGA believes that kindness is weakness
Empathy is weakness
Compassion is weakness
and therefore, the libs are weak! This is what they have been constantly told and brainwashed into believing! We have to show them we aren’t weak…
🇺🇸💙🫶🏻
We can do both!
The thing is, he's gonna appoint all these guys and then after he's sworn in, he's gonna be replaced with Vance thru the 25th Amendment and everybody is going to have to either toe the line on Project 2025 or be replaced by Vance's picks, who will all be 2025 people. These doofusses are placeholders for the REAL serious cabinet waiting in the wings.
Carry on with the good work
Much appreciated
Straight up. Democrats need to learn how to troll.
Let the mud slinging and troll trolling begin...
Elonia (the second buddy) won't last. Donny is jealous and he wants to take Musk's money. That's all. It's going to be so much worse. People are still talking about govt and law as though it's still going to exist. It won't. So hang in there and write songs, troll freely and we will watch while Don the con burns Rome.
I almost 100% love the emerging team of MarVivElon. (pronounced mar-VIV-uh-lon) The only thing I don't love about it is that it will increase the amount of taxpayer funds wasted. Perhaps the full title of this team should be the MarVivElon League of Inefficiency Personified ("LOIP").
Hi! As a former legal secretary and city council clerk (retired), I'd like to offer my services as a proofreader at no charge, if you are looking for one?🤷🏻.
Love Meidas!!!
KMH
Tennessee Brando, thank you so much for your great reporting ! Your voice helps me feel calmer. Thank you.
Me too Colleen; calmer.
Tennessee Brando is a great voice in the fight...
Fighting the good fight for Democracy with you Brando. Thanks 💙
His first term was.a practice. Now he has a play book and the billionaires to back it. Wake up. This dude is going do what was written. Stay strong keep both eyes and ears open.
Stop calling her MTG or her full name her name is Marge Greene and that is what she should be called.
Ever since seeing her in that faux fur getup for the SOTU in 2023, I've thought of her as Marjorie Roller Derby Greene -- or just plain Large Marge. After all, she did call Boebert "Little Lauren."
Yeah Marge Greene
Thank you for all your help with telling the truth
Especially for those of us who live in Tennessee
Which is scary enough with the GOP holding this state and will more empowered to really make living here more difficult
Because it’s all about money and power for them and never about the citizens of Tennessee
The are short sighted and idiots
So when the Leopard is stalking you to kill and eat you leopard don’t ask what is your beliefs are before they eat kill and eat you because they are just doing what leopards for for their survival
I pronounce it Douche! MTG is such a f-ing joke!! You do great things Tennessee Brando!!🇺🇲💙⚖️🌈🤎💪♀️
The only way that I can have any fun on social media is by trolling the trolls. AOC is just more eloquent than I am. 😆
I just discovered you, Brando, and I love you — You articulate exactly what i think!!!! BRAVO!!!!👏👏👏👏👏👏👏💯🅰️+
Heard a song this past weekend...
Don't know much about history
Don't know much biology
Don't know much about a science book
Don't know much about the government I took
[Chorus]
But I do know that I love Trump
And I know that if you love me too
What a fascist world we can make
[Pre-Chorus]
Don't know much about geography
Don't know much trigonometry
Don't know much about algebra
Don't know what the rule of law is for
[Chorus]
But I know you say one and one is eight
And if you make me a secretary for you
What a fascist world we will make
[Verse]
Now, I don't claim to be a patriot
But I'm trying to be MAGA
Just for you, and we will destroy America
We can win when you tell me you love me
I think we can do both. Intelligent trolling is not obscene or crude; it is observational. Think Oscar Wilde, not Lenny Bruce.
Brilliant. I salute you, Sir.
When they go low we should go lower.
Hey! A brilliant addition to MarVivElon would be Laura Loomer. I'm up for watching the ensuing catfight. 🍿
How does this help us win in 2026?
It may make us feel good but what does it do to solve our problem?
Comedy spreads wider than policy. It's worth looking at the Progressive Era of a century ago and what journalists did then. Obviously we need to be doing many other things also, but we can walk and chew gum at the same time. I've already seen how Brando's song cheaper eggs has entered the discission in the body politic, and superfast. Just as Occupy Wall Street gave us the 1%. People questioned the utility of them at the time, but here we are with wide acceptance of the idea that perhaps the world doesn't need billionaires, and people younger than me are well focused on the real root of problems. In the long term, I'm encouraged. In the short term, I'll help people get through this as much as I can. Crises are never pretty.
We aren't dealing with people who care about harming us. I know we need to be smarter and tougher and not let the GOP, Heritage Foundation, nor Trump, and billionaires bully us and end democracy. They aren't playing by ethical, diplomatic rules. We need to recognize what that means!
We need that kind of power right now. Look at what we're doing we're weak or at least two people are Democrats. I'm a Democrat but I'm not weak. I believe the Democratic party can be so much stronger. To my old people in this party real old. I'm older but I am not creepy old and. Nancy pelosi and so forth need to get out. And I like Nancy pelosi too but apparently she's not as strong as she can be or used to be. She made a bad mood maybe because it's invited to leave the race but whatever it's a done deal now. Maybe forever
I am 70 and never once saw nicey nicey defang a bully. Not sure where libtards get these stupid ideas. A smackdown turns bullies into quivering jellyfish. I love your song, I love AOC, I love Jasmine cocktail, and I love the Smurf!
Keep up your Trolling! I love to troll the Ignorant MAGA Nutjob MORONS!
MTG is now chairman of the doggie style committee. Now that’s rich.
MTG is a waste of space.
TROLLING MAGAS WITH THIS:
MAGA morons are going to be out in the fields picking lettuce for $ when Trump takes away their jobs, welfare, medicare, medicaid, social security, etc. Won't be any migrants left to pick the food and tariffs will make food prices go sky high. THAT WAS THE PLAN BY THE BILLIONAIRE OLIGARCHY ALL ALONG YOU IDIOTS.
America cornering the market on *stoopid* in modern political times.
Over 900 people responded positively to my post on Youtube: "People are wondering what they can do besides voting to fight against Trump and MAGA. What you can do is openly tell businesses or organizations that embrace MAGA values that you will not give them your money or support their racist, fascist, anti-women values. Do it locally. Face to face!" Here's one person's response to my post:
"As a subcontractor/business owner, we walked away from a $15,000 project last week because when we arrived the client had Trump stuff everywhere. Morals over money."
Yep Darfi, we are a *force.*
Much of our time will be "suffering fools (Murica coopted by a Cult, &murica has been too fooking stupid for too long!).
Take the tiny baby-steps, and seek Allies -- there are many.
good on you mate !!
WHAT THE HELL IS ELON MUSK DOING IN OUR GOVERNMENT? He's just another CON MAN! Also..... what's going to happen when Trump removes anybody and everybody, who's not one of his Loyal supporters, from all social Media and the REAL News Stations and only allows HIS FAKE NEWS? We won't really know what's going on in the real world! It's frightening!
100 Percent. When they go Low we need to kick them in the BALLS!
When they go low we go toe to toe
Tennessee Brando is an awesome person 😎 💙
Start calling her Marge Greene I think it would drive her insane.
Really? Is that because Greene was her married name?
Elon is Stinky Musk is his nickname going forward.
Since Marge prefers to divest people of their proper titles ("Mr Fauci" instead of "Dr Fauci), we should probably take her lead and always refer to "Mr Trump" rather than "President" - very polite! Also when MTG is referred to as a "Member of Congress", I always think of her as the "Incongruous Member" and am reminded that "Member" has several meanings, and can refer to the male member - she is of course, a dick in every sense of the word!
Good go see The Troll so successfully trolled. Good job! I just 'discovered' you yesterday and so far I like you a lot and hope you keep up the good work. We're going to need you in coming days.
Republicans trash democrats for all their accomplishments and dems can't respond. Dems play patty cake while republicans play gladiator. You have to fight like wolves or get eaten by them. maga will be shocked at how badly they will be treated and how tragic the results will be for them. trump cult voted against their best interests and they will pay a steep price. trump will play golf most days and let his Project 2025 clowns run rampant. A lot of damage will be done to those least able to absorb the damage. Nicely done TB! I look forward to your content.
MTG and Kari Lake are "the biggest A-Kiss to Trump." Coming in as a strong third is Nikky and fourth place is Lindsey Graham. Further down the line is goofy Alina Habba who fearlessly strutted her stuff in front of Trump at every opportunity. The gal [MIA] who looks like a stand-in for Vampira appears to be no longer in the running. LOL 😂
Please talk about Steven Spoonamore. Please.
They need Marjorie to serve them snacks and coffee.
First lady Elonia
Elon Musk is not the “first buddy”…he is the “co-president”…..
You're right. No more taking the high road. We've been doing that and look where it has gotten us. It's time to take off the kid gloves and fight back. Prove to them that they do not "own the libs"
The sad part is... this stuff drumph has done, he's done and he's technically NOT EVEN PRESIDENT YET!!! So does this mean it's not really a presidential act????????
Laughter is always the best way of reaching people. To quote Readers Digest "Laughter is always the best medicine "
I really like these comments.After I had been so much time.Talk to text with these and I like this prop form.I wish you would keep going.I support this pitch on completely.Thank you very much for bringing all the attention.Happy thanksgiving everyone I hope you all lord save us all from the sea of bitches
Someone at NOAA. Please put a sign on an empty office door. "Director of Weather Control". Make a fake Trump announcement on X: Marge Greene appointed Director of Weather Control! And give the office address. And an invite for Marge to tour her new office. Put a desk and a computer and joystick in there. Instructions on logging into NOAA Radar Loop. And let her go at it!
Have you noticed how , DOG E 🎉🎉🎉🎉
I think I see a painting of John Prine!
Noticed same! Good company; some knuckles are going to get bruised...
FYI: There is a “secret” J6er celebration happening in Seaside CA on Army property on Thursday 04/03/25
“So Monterey Bay conservatives are thinking they are still going to host January 6er’s and changed their venue to the Presidio of Monterey now. The other location bowed to pressure from the community but now the US Army is allowing them to use their community center ballroom at 4260 Gigling Rd. In Seaside. Phone number provided in post, call and explain how this is heinous that they would allow this and if you’re local to Monterey area protest this. Unfortunately I can’t be there because my grandson leaves for a trip overseas and I’m his ride to the airport at SFO. Please phone in and organize something in protest. Thank you 🙏🏼”
I have photos with more info.
Hell yeah! Love yall at MTN !!! You rock
You’re great. Thank you.
She isn’t attractive enough for Trump
Thank you Tennessee Brando, you are the best! Dog the bounty hunter MTG Bleached Blond Bad Built Butch Body is evil.
Yep, if you don't want to be ridiculed, don't be ridiculous.
Trump knows MTG is unhinged, unreasonable and unreachable. Do you suppose he's deliberately siccing MTG on Musk and Ramaswamy? If so, why? Or, does he just know if he doesn't place her somewhere, she'll be trouble for him...
Careful out there folks. Sometimes the trolls are “real”

Just wait until the Republican Congress tries to cut Social Security and Medicare Benefits. They always take the easy way out. So, the Republicans will opt toward increasing the age of when people are eligible for these programs like they did when they increased the age for when people are eligible for Social Security from 65 to 66. They did this in 1983 and it took almost 10 years to make these changes to hide them from the public in the US. As far as changing Medicare, seniors will never vote for Republicans again if they touch Medicare so they will go after Medicaid (Federal Medical Insurance for the poor administered by state governments) which is what they always do.
You all like my comment but short comment.Anything about what I just said
Marjorie green is nothing but a blonde and an a**Kisses her and that's all she can be as an a**Kiss her up to Trump and everybody else.She likes to kiss the house.I want she blows 'em
🎯
The woman is a complete Neanderthal! I can't wait to see how she deals with Rama-smarmy and Musky's misogyny they'll no doubt be shoving down her tree-stump throat! The three stooges!! Wup, wup, wup, wup wup!! 🤯🙄
The concept of going high when the fight is in the mud can easily be using your superior intellect to show just how stupid the MAGA MAROONS are. When all they have to offer is lies, conspiracy theories, and made up victimhood about something that isn't even happening you HAVE to point out how ridiculous it all is.
Does MTG have to resign her seat in Congress to accept the position under Must/Ram?
Thank you for that Mr. Brando. MTG and Ellie will see their day. Trump is already tired of him, Lets see the next chapter when he gets rid of him getting all that praise,Hmm!!
Hey listen contact me on Facebook
