The more controversial the better for Greene’s fundraising, and her opponent’s

ATLANTA — After the FBI searched former President Donald Trump’s home, U.S. Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene expressed outrage to the hundreds of thousands of people who follow her on social media.

“They are trying to STOP President Trump from running in 2024,” she wrote on the messaging app Telegram. “And the Democrats are expecting you NOT to stand with President Trump!”

The note linked to Greene’s page on the fundraising platform Anedot, where supporters were encouraged to “emergency donate” to her campaign. On a separate fundraising site used by Republicans, WinRed, Greene added new merchandise to her online store: T-shirts and hats with the phrase “Defund the FBI.”
