Rep. Marjorie Taylor Green (R-Ga.) broke out what she called her “really bad Mexican accent” during a speech on Thursday night in Dalton, Georgia, and many on social media agreed: It was really bad.  Greene, who has promoted QAnon conspiracy theories, claimed President Joe Biden and other Democrats were “in business of helping the cartels” in Mexico. Then, she broke out her accent: My brain has no idea how to even begin to process this. pic.twitter.com/KwGVqrJLq7— KevinlyFather 🇺🇲🇨🇦🇲🇼🇸🇿 (@KevinlyFather) May 28, 2021 Greene has already been under fire for making anti-Semitic comments. She once shared a conspiracy theory that a prominent Jewish family that is often the target of anti-Semitic conspiracy theories used a space laser to start a 2018 California wildfire. Earlier this month, she compared mask mandates to the Holocaust. That drew a rare rebuke from her own party, which has largely supported her and even put her on two powerful committees ― Education and Labor, and Budget ― until she was stripped of those assignments in a largely party-line vote.  Greene has also used her time in the House to stalk and harass her fellow members of Congress.  Her latest stunt made her the talk of Twitter in all the wrong ways: —…

A draft of the "Sindh Compulsory Marriage Act, 2021" was submitted to the Sindh secretariat on Wednesday, and seeks to address "societal ills, child rapes, immoral activities and crime" by making it mandatory for children over 18 to marry. Under the proposed bill, parents will be required "submit an undertaking with justified reason of delay before the deputy commissioner of the district" if their children are not married, and upon failing to do so, they would have to pay a fine of Rs500 each. The bill also wants to put a ban on dowry and establish standard operating procedures (SOPs) for weddings. The draft was submitted by MMA MPA Syed Abdul Rasheed, who argued that this would help fight "competition" and motivate people to organise simpler weddings. Rasheed also announced the submission of the draft on his Twitter account. In a video, Rasheed claimed that the obstacles in the way of marriages nowadays, like unemployment and high costs, were a direct "result of distancing from Islamic teachings." He spoke about unemployment causing delay in marriages, saying the problem was "society's tendency towards competition", which had "spoiled a lot of legal and correct ways". As soon as the news of the…
