Insurrection happening in the Capitol? MTG is such a joke (twitter.com)

Marjorie Taylor Greene, the bastion of factual information, has once again shown the nature of her character by claiming that peaceful protestors at the Capitol are in fact an "insurrection of terrorists". Don't you see all the violence and mayhem being caused in this video clip? No, me either...

If you want to make such bold comparisons, lets start out by checking how many people are running for their lives or the number of deaths involved between these two events. Or maybe we should be asking why MTG thought it was an "honor" to meet with the people responsible for murder and the attempt to destroy our democracy?

I’m sure the part where they tried to overthrow the US government came right after that clip.

Oh I'm sure of it! Funny how they never seem to get that part on film though...

Questions. SO MANY questions

Easy. They want to cheapen the word "insurrection" so that it doesn't mean anything.

Yep "the left's insurrection was much worse than ours" is next.

I have a lot as well, but mostly based on rumors. Like I heard that some politicians are trying to make it illegal to protest against US support of Israel. I'm sure there is probably a law against protesting inside the Capitol building and this is probably why today's protestors were arrested. That still doesn't excuse MTG's lust for the spotlight at the cost of the people who are speaking out against genocide.
