Capitol Insurrection GOP January 6

Iraq War Vet Humiliates Marjorie Taylor Greene For Visiting Jailed J6 Rioters

Earlier today, Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) visited some of the January 6, 2021 rioters who attacked the Capitol and led to the death of five people on that horrific day.

Afterwards, Greene issued a statement in which she praised herself and tried to suggest that the J6 prisoners were somehow being treated unfairly, despite the fact that they participated in an insurrection against the U.S. government at the behest of failed former president Donald Trump.

“We toured the DC Jail today and held a press conference outside the jail after our tour. This man assaulted everyone there by blowing a whistle as loud in as he could in other’s ears and tried multiple times to assault me and other members. My staff and others like this very nice lady did their best to block him. He needs to be arrested and we tried to have him arrested. My staffer called 911 and reached an automated recording for several minutes before reaching a human. Reported the guy. She then asked the jail to send out an officer and they refused. This is just another example out of a million others that the left does repeatedly without accountability. Funny thing is the same guy was outside our press conference at the DOJ in 2021. Sounds like a direct threat, ‘Don’t touch! Touch you die!'”

Not long after Greene made her pilgrimage to the jail in Washington, D.C., Retired U.S. Army Sergeant, Kristofer Goldsmith, an Iraq War veteran, ripped the congresswoman apart on MSNBC.

“Marjorie Taylor Greene, Lauren Boebert, and the rest of those far-right Republicans care about January 6 defendants exactly as much as they care about veterans.”

Goldsmith added:

“We are great photo ops for them; we are great fundraising tools for them. But I know from walking around Capitol Hill for years and trying to talk to Republicans about improving veterans’ healthcare, that they will not get involved in anything meaningful, like criminal justice reform. They’re going to send out a bunch of emails, they’re going there to get a bunch of donations from their rubes, and those people are going to still sit in prison because they broke the law.

“That’s where they belong, and they are being treated with due process the way that anybody else who breaks the law is going to get treated. So, you know, I am disappointed to see them do that, but these people disappoint me every day, so it’s not a surprise.”

If you rioted at the Capitol on Jan. 6, you’re a domestic terrorist and deserve to be treated accordingly. Don’t like it? Then you’d better stay home the next time some American Hitler urges you to march.
