Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, a member of the U.S. Congress representing Georgia’s 14th district since 2021, shared her views on various issues through a series of tweets on December 10, 2024. Her comments addressed concerns about the management and financial performance of the United States Postal Service (USPS), as well as broader political and social issues.

In her first tweet at 16:29 UTC, Greene criticized the management of the USPS, stating that "The Postal Service is supposed to break even, but poor management is costing taxpayers billions." She emphasized this as an example of inefficiencies her committee aims to address.

Later in the day at 17:49 UTC, Greene highlighted a reported $9.5 billion loss by the USPS for fiscal year 2024. She noted this adds to approximately $100 billion in losses since 2007, asserting that such figures are indicative of "bloated, mismanaged, and unaccountable" government entities and called for substantial reforms.

Finally, at 20:54 UTC, Greene addressed issues beyond postal services, focusing on what she described as "political violence and intimidation tactics" from leftist groups. She claimed these actions jeopardize public safety and police resources while referencing a recent pipe bomb threat that resulted in a fatality.
