Even Murdoch's New York Post is calling her 'Moscow Marjorie' along with the rest of us



It’s a rare occasion when a New York Post front page could be posted as the cover photo for a Daily Kos diary. But this is the front page of the Rupert Murdoch-owned tabloid for April 21, 2024, a day after the House passed a $61 billion aid package for Ukraine.

And the actual story about the House passage of the overall $95.3 billion aid package was far from fair and balanced when it came to “Moscow Marjorie.” In fact, it is even worth linking to the story. Just look at the framing of the lead paragraph, particularly the use of the word “putsch.”

House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.) on Saturday crushed a putsch by far-right Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene and Republican rebels — pushing through a $95.3 billion aid package that funds the fight against Russia, the defense of Israel and resistance against China.

Lawmakers in a rare bipartisan effort overwhelmingly approved the four-bill package, including one measure providing $60.8 billion for Ukraine.
