Greene said she’s “not a fan” of Obamacare but complained that her “own adult children’s insurance premiums for 2026 are going to DOUBLE” if Congress ignores the issue.
Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, R-Ga., broke with her party Monday evening by calling for action on expiring Obamacare subsidies to avoid premium hikes, adding a prominent MAGA voice to the cause led by Democrats.
In a long post on X, Greene, the far-right MAGA firebrand, made it clear she was not in Congress when the 2010 law passed.
“Let’s just say as nicely as possible, I’m not a fan,” she wrote. “But I’m going to go against everyone on this issue because when the tax credits expire this year my own adult children’s insurance premiums for 2026 are going to DOUBLE, along with all the wonderful families and hard-working people in my district.”
Tearing down the imperfect is bound to lead to perfection and not end in catastrophe. What could go wrong? The fuck is incremental progress?[1]

Well the imperfect has completely failed me pretty much my entire life. If it needs to fail more people to get it fixed, I’m okay with that.
There are other people whom the imperfect is serving far more than nothing. I doubt they’re “okay with that” or they’d be wrong to lack faith in your approach.
Sounds like hostages to me.
