During a committee meeting on crime in Washington, D.C., Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, a conspiracy theorist, went on a lengthy rant covering various topics.
When a Democratic lawmaker pointed out the irony of her discussing crime given her support for the Capitol insurrectionists, Greene walked out of the hearing.
“That was a lot,” Rep. Robert Garcia said.
Marjorie Taylor Greene tried to complain about DC crime rates but walked out of the room when I reminded her I saw her hugging and coddling the Jan 6th insurrectionists in jail. She even yelled that they're political prisoners in the middle of my remarks. She’s insane. pic.twitter.com/BUBw6Shu7t

“She literally supported an insurrection and attack on the Capitol,” Garcia said.
“Marjorie Taylor Greene tried to complain about DC crime rates but walked out of the room when I reminded her I saw her hugging and coddling the Jan 6th insurrectionists in jail. She even yelled that they’re political prisoners in the middle of my remarks. She’s insane,” Garcia wrote on X.
The lawmaker later criticized her behavior, citing her previous actions of hugging and supporting the insurrectionists.
“The first thing she does is … greets them and hugs them and prays with them and apologizes and is treating them like heroes, and I’m sitting there going, this is disgusting,” Garcia said. “These people attacked our government, they tried to overthrow our government.”
This incident adds to previous controversies surrounding Greene’s actions and statements.
