Why didn't Greene walk out there to ask those people to leave? After all, if they were just patriotic Republican tourists, then they would have listened to her, right?

Oh, what's that? They were violent insurrectionists and she was hiding from them too? But she somehow thinks that the Democrats should have yelled "Democratic Avengers Assemble" and charged out there? (And now I'm picturing Bernie wielding Thor's hammer.)

So, she's saying it was a dangerous mob now? I thought they were just tourists and no threat at all??

Yeah, we all remember Josh Hawley courageously staying like a real patriot.

They failed to defend us... from ourselves!

Congress-cromagnon Marjorie Tapeworm Greene needs to shut the fuck up.

"If Steve Bannon and I had organized that, we would have won. Not to mention, it would have been armed." -Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene December 2022 speaking at the New York Young Republican Club

Wasn’t she busy hiding with Ted “Supply Closet” Cruz?

Wasn't she one who was posting where people were hiding?

Put that neanderthal woman in a museum or a zoo.

So are we just stuck with an ever revolving door of lies, pulling up previous contradictory statements, on repeat? What the fuck is this bullshit? Please tell me somebody called her out in person on her previous statements of them being tourists. This shit is the whole fucking circus, and my bread is fucken dry and moldy somehow.

she thinks her fans read?

We tried and failed to take over the government, we would have got away with it too if it weren't for those darn democrats!

Eat a bag of cocks you wretched twat.

I wish I was eating cereal so I could spit it out to express displeasure.

Marjorie, just to remind you: They were your people. You can bet your ass that each of them voted for Trump and your party of assholes, and eventually for your wasted seat in that house, too.

I thought I saw Danny DeVito in this picture for a second.

This is the best summary I could come up with:

But that version of events sits in stark contrast to others prominently including that of Jason Crow of Colorado, a Democratic congressman and former US army ranger who worked to help fellow representatives before being, by his own description, the last politician to leave.

Speaking to the Denver Post after the riot, Crow said: “They evacuated the folks on the floor but those of us in the gallery actually got trapped for like 20 minutes as the rioters stormed the stairwells and the doors.

In an oral history of January 6 by Business Insider, Raúl Grijalva, of Arizona, said: “You also saw members doing their part to facilitate our evacuation – Seth Moulton [of Massachusetts, a marines veteran], Ruben Gallego, and four or five others … who assumed a role of helping us to get out of there and working with the Capitol police to make sure that we were all safe.”

Gallego, also of Arizona and a former marine, told the same site: “Eventually what I did was I jumped up on a table and started giving instructions to people about how to open up the gas mask.

Discussing January 6, three days after her swearing-in, Greene claims to have worked “tirelessly” on objections to key state results but to have been “utterly shocked” when rioters breached the Capitol.

Greene says she tried to stay close to Clay Higgins of Louisiana, a former law enforcement officer who was “one of the armed Republican members of Congress exercising his second amendment rights that day”.

I thought it was a Tourist Visit?

Ah, the old “Why are you hitting yourself?” defense.
