WASHINGTON (Sputnik) - An earthquake on the eastern coast of the United States on Friday and a total solar eclipse on April 8 represent signals from God for the country to repent, US Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene said on Friday.
“God is sending America strong signs to tell us to repent. Earthquakes and eclipses and many more things to come,” Greene said in a statement via social media platform X.
Greene said that she prays the US listens to such signals.
Earlier on Friday, a magnitude 4.8 earthquake hit occurred near New York City. The geological event resulted in ground stops at area airports, but there were no life-threatening situations reported, New York Governor Kathy Hochul said.
The UN Security Council was discussing the situation in Palestine, when the UN headquarters building began to shake as a result of the earthquake and cause the meeting to be briefly stopped. However, the meeting continued shortly thereafter.

She is not doing our side any favors with this sort of nuttery.
I don’t disagree.
Woe to those who do.
Might not be a bad idea for Jack and Jill Biden to seek repentance.
Good grief.
The eclipse is a known event.
What an idiot.
Let me guess: You’re one of those “X Republican has gone too far” and will immediately denounce her so the Left won’t call you a mean-old right-wing extremist, right?
I remember sitting in a car in 1993 and the local Christian talk show guy on the radio was saying Bill Clinton (current President) was the antichrist.
As to the End Times, “wars and rumors of war” and so on, someone calculated by a careful study of historical records that there were 86 total years of no war going on in recorded history.
In the play and record album Beyond the Fringe with Peter Cook and Dudley Moore, they had a skit of assembling the believers on a hilltop to watch the end of the world on a certain exact date and time. Then nothing happened.
“Well, alright, then, see all of you here same time next year, folks.” “So long.”
Her elevator doesn't go up to the top floor.
Scripture is enough, don’t need earthquake.
What an idiotic thing to say. MTG just shut up.
Why doesn’t she think god isn’t sending her a message?
Amen!
Surprise Sudden Eclipse Outbreaks are Startling.
True. And she needs to quit barking at Mike Johnson.
Our side? Speak for yourself
She doesn't care. She's in a safe district.
Eclipses are clockwork events. Predictable for thousands of years in advance. Just like astrology.
MTG doesn’t strike me as the best messenger for this. Didn’t she have a couple of affairs back around 2012 that lead to separation between her and her husband for a while?
At the very beginning of Great Lent, on Clean Monday (March 18) Orthodox Christians heard this passage from the Apocalypse of Luke 22:
“And there will be signs in sun and moon and stars, and upon the earth distress of nations in perplexity at the roaring of the sea and the waves, men fainting with fear and with foreboding of what is coming on the world; for the powers of the heavens will be shaken. And then they will see the Son of man coming in a cloud with power and great glory. Now when these things begin to take place, look up and raise your heads, because your redemption is drawing near.” And he told them a parable: “Look at the fig tree, and all the trees; as soon as they come out in leaf, you see for yourselves and know that the summer is already near. So also, when you see these things taking place, you know that the kingdom of God is near.”
So there are earthquakes?
So there will be an eclipse?
The weeping cherries and hawthornes are flowering in all their glory.
And we know that the Kingdom of God is nearer than it was yesterday and not as near as it shall be tomorrow.
And “we shall not fear, ‘though the earth should shake” (Ps 46/45 Sept)
Makes as much sense as blaming climate change and racism.
