MTG Blasted After Celebrating That 'MAGA Is Now In Control' Following Mass RNC Layoffs

The GOP Rep. celebrated MAGA's takeover of the Republican National Committee with a post on X, formerly Twitter, and was quickly called out by critics.

Georgia Republican Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene was harshly criticized after she expressed joy over the reported mass layoffs within the Republican National Committee (RNC).

Sources close to former President Donald Trump revealed that more than 60 RNC employees, including five senior staff members across various departments, are set to lose their jobs as Trump's campaign exerts more influence over the committee.


The RNC's recent decision to approve Trump's choices for new leadership, including Michael Whatley as the new RNC chair, his daughter-in-law Lara Trump as co-chair, and Chris LaCivita as the chief operating officer, further solidifies Trump's control over the party. Despite ongoing primaries, the move indicates the party's acceptance of Trump as the de facto GOP presidential candidate.

Writing on X, formerly Twitter, Greene enthusiastically shared Politico's article on the layoffs, titled "Bloodbath at RNC," on her social media, declaring:

“MAGA is now in control of the Republican Party!! We will continue to need everyone’s help all the way across the finish line! Do not grow weary. Dig deeper.”

You can see her post below.

Greene's celebratory post drew mockery and criticism from many quarters, reflecting the ongoing divisions within the Republican Party over its direction and leadership.



The shake-up at the RNC follows the private announcement by Ronna McDaniel, who had led the committee since 2017, that she would be stepping down.

McDaniel found herself under mounting pressure both within and outside the committee to step down, driven by lackluster fundraising and criticisms of the GOP's unexceptional performance in the 2022 elections.

Several of Trump's allies accused McDaniel of not providing adequate support to the former president. They pointed to her neutrality during the Republican primary and her reluctance to accede to Trump's proposal to cancel a series of debates he had refused to participate in.

The changes come at a crucial time, after the RNC faced its worst fundraising year in a decade, holding only half as much money as its Democratic counterpart, according to Politico. The impact of the leadership changes on the committee's performance remains to be seen.

White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt is getting called out after she attempted to justify President Donald Trump's sudden reversal on his proposed tariffs, telling reporters that his actions make sense because he has a master plan to make the world bend the knee.

Trump declared a full 90-day suspension of all the “reciprocal” tariffs that took effect at midnight April 10—except for those on China—in a dramatic about-face from a president who had long championed his historically high tariff rates as permanent.
