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.

Speaking to anchor Jake Tapper on CNN last April, Ohio Republican Mike Turner said that Russian propaganda had "infected" the GOP in a clip that has resurfaced after President-elect Donald Trump had him ousted as House Intelligence Committee chair.

At the time, Turner made it clear that his fellow Republicans were parroting Russian propaganda about the war in Ukraine and its relationship with NATO members. That claim came after House Foreign Affairs Committee chair Michael McCaul, who said he thinks "Russian propaganda has made its way into the United States, unfortunately, and it’s infected a good chunk of my party’s base."
