Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene, a Georgia Republican, was fact-checked on her social media post on Friday about the upcoming solar eclipse.

The total solar eclipse, which is when the moon completely passes over the sun creating darkness during daylight hours, will be observed in North America on Monday. The eclipse's path will move across Mexico, parts of the United States, and a small part of eastern Canada. The total eclipse will last up to 4 minutes and 28 seconds in some areas.

Greene wrote on X, formerly Twitter, on Friday, "God is sending America strong signs to tell us to repent. Earthquakes and eclipses and many more things to come. I pray that our country listens."

The congresswoman's post then got hit with a community note, which is a small blurb below a post that gives readers added context and typically disputes the X user's claims.

"Earthquakes happen all the time, all around the world," the community note read. "Eclipses are not random, they follow strict mathematical rules and can be predicted centuries before they happen. NASA has a site listing eclipses until the year 3000."

Newsweek reached out to Greene's office via email for comment.

On Friday, a 4.8 magnitude earthquake hit Whitehouse Station, part of Readington Township, in New Jersey, and rattled parts of the Northeast. Shaking was felt throughout the region, including New York, Connecticut and Pennsylvania and as far as Maine.

Greene, a Christian known for her far-right views, has been a vocal critic of the Biden administration's policies, particularly when it comes to the handling of the migrant surge at the U.S.-Mexico border. She has also previously called for a "national divorce" between red and blue states.

Former Representative Adam Kinzinger, an Illinois Republican, also spoke out against Greene's post.

"Fun fact. There are about 3 solar eclipses worldwide per year, and many earthquakes. Both events were predetermined at the creation of the universe," he wrote on Friday. "The solar eclipse is not a sign. It's just a really cool show, if the clouds cooperate. This lady is in congress?"

Kinzinger, who is currently a CNN senior political commentator, has been critical of far-right Republicans. He, along with former Representative Liz Cheney from Wyoming, were the only two Republicans to sit on the January 6 committeea House select committee tasked with investigating the events surrounding the riot of Donald Trump supporters that erupted at the U.S. Capitol building in Washington, D.C., on January 6, 2021, to stop the certification of Joe Biden's 2020 election win.

most residents are black. The ones who keep power are a small group of white people.

Yeah Doc was also somehow the GM of the team, so he traded for his son, then signed him to like a 35 million dollar contract for no fucking reason, which was proven because after that one contract he's been a minimum salary player for five other teams.

It cannot be overstated how much of a cancer Doc Rivers is on the NBA, everywhere he goes he fucks things up. He took over the Bucks this season when they were one of the best teams in the league and has them playing .500 ball.

Not in the NBA, but Glenn 'Doc' Rivers coached his son Austin 'Scrub' Rivers for a couple years on the LA Clippers.

LeBron Jr. really needs to stop letting people call him Bronny jesus christ you're a grown man.

tuberville wasn't even a good college football coach, really blows my mind they elected him. i could understand saban maybe since he is a legend, but saban is a democrat so prob not in hyper partisan alabama even with his football accolades

I buy from a local roaster. Its more expensive than most other options but when you drink it you can tell where that extra money went.

Yeah some Vyce guy blocked me when he tryied to spin a tale of how perscuited he was on 261 for having a differen't opinion. I posted a pic of his post calling mask weares the R word. He got so mad he blocked me.

I only knew this lady because of her ridiculous suits, but the more you hear about her, the more you see she's Tommy Tuberville in heels.

every time you pick up after someone, put that item on their bed or somewhere that forces them to address it

Also Merrick Garland.

However, yes, the 2000 election is super fucked up when you dig deeper into it, especially seeing as how one of the law clerks at the time (Kavanaugh) is now a SCJ.

Al Gore

...what

Don't have anything to shave.

i thought that was just another term for "going crazy". didnt see anything wrong with it tbh...

Not very surprising considering the insurrection.

Also, is it just me or does it seem like no Republican will ever respond to anything about project 2025? I don't think I've ever seen a Republican actually talk about when questioned.

Go Trump get dumped

Didn't Shawn Merriman beat the hell out of Tila Tequila when they dated because she was doing porn or some shit?

The founder of Panda Express Andrew Cherng was a Chinese immigrant from Jiangsu. He was smart enough not to try to sell authentic Chinese food as fast food to Americans.

His son is the celebrity chef Ming Tsai (Cherng).

I actually just looked up an article about them. They won't divulge their sex life info and apparently they have different amounts of feelings in shared body parts. So they may have simultaneous orgasms, one might feel nothing, one might just feel more than the other. There's apparently a lot of options

He killed it in An Officer and a Gentleman, (won best supporting actor Oscar).

Afroman wasnt raised by the feds lol
