The MAGA Rep. shared a post on X about the average age of eight 'signers of the Declaration of Independence'—except only two men she listed actually signed it.

Far-right Georgia Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene was raked over the coals for rewriting American history over the July 4th weekend.

On Friday, the MAGA Congresswoman proclaimed on X (formerly Twitter):


“The average age of the signers of the Declaration of Independence on July 4, 1776 was 44 years old, but more than a dozen were 35 or younger."

MTG, a verified conspiracy theorist, then listed eight U.S. historical figures with their respective ages, six of whom were not among the 56 delegates to the Continental Congress—a.k.a., the nation's Founding Fathers—who signed the engrossed Declaration of Independence.

Following MTG's bonkers list, the social media platform community note attached to her message pointed out she got six of the eight names listed wrong.

The note came with a corresponding link to verify its fact-checking message and stated:

"James Madison, Alexander Hamilton, James Monroe, Aaron Burr, Paul Revere, and George Washington were not signers of the Declaration of Independence."


Social media user rolled their eyes over MTG's alternate reality.







The trolling of MTG was worth signing off on.






How MTG was ever elected to Congress remains a mind-boggling chapter in recent U.S. history.

Gavin Newsom Hilariously Dunks On Trump For Hosting The Kennedy Center Honors

California Governor Gavin Newsom trolled President Donald Trump by sharing an AI-generated photo of himself accepting the inaugural—and not real—"Kennedy Center peace prize" from Trump.

The photo accompanied a post in which Newsom mocked not just Trump but also Ric Grenell, the Kennedy Center's president, whom Newsom referred to as a "janitor" in a post that—like many of Newsom's past posts—is written in a style not unlike the rants Trump publishes on Truth Social.
