Trial Balloon · Ep. 194: What Just Happened?

What’s Going On With Marjorie Taylor Greene?

October 10, 2025 · 4:00 pm ET · Leave a Comment

Will Gottsegen: “After nearly five years in Congress, the hard-right North Georgia representative is calling for an extension of provisions in the Affordable Care Act, Obama’s signature health-care policy, breaking with her party over the central policy issue of the current government shutdown and creating ripples of anxiety throughout the broader MAGA movement. ‘I’m absolutely disgusted that health insurance premiums will DOUBLE if the tax credits expire this year,’ she wrote on X. Today, Greene put the blame for the government shutdown squarely on Republican leadership.”

“Greene is no Democrat: She believes that Obamacare created many of the problems with today’s health-insurance market, but she also believes that Republicans ‘have no new solution.’ Lately, her impulse to go after both sides has left her very much on her own.”
