Supporters of Georgia Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene appear to have an affinity for violence and that seems to bring her joy as seen in a video of Greene reacting with laughter to someone shouting that he would like to “bring dynamite” to the U.S. Capitol.
The video, filmed during a town hall that took place in Ringgold, Catoosa County, Georgia, captured the exchange with a man who said “what you ought to do is build a wall back around the White House and lock [House Speaker Nancy] Pelosi in.”
Greene laughed before replying “exactly.” The man is then heard saying “that would solve our problems, to which the Greene replies “exactly, I agree,” and jokingly suggests audience members “come to work with me next week. I think they should listen to you guys.”
The man responds: “I don’t want to go up there, they won’t let me bring dynamite.” Greene again laughs, before moving to another question.
The 48-second clip has been viewed more than 100,000 times since it was shared to Twitter on Wednesday by anti-extremism group Patriot Takes, writing “MTG just laughs it off.”

Isn't that reportable to authorities for inciting terrorism?

Speaking of which, did they ever identify who placed the pipe bombs during J6?

She does realize explosives don't understand the difference between R and D, right??

It won’t stop until there is actual accountability. There have been no consequences for anything except losing committee assignments in Congress & a public slap on the wrist that they use for donations.

The bonus of being an accomplice means you know when and where these things go down. Take J6, for instance. She claimed she was scared for her life, but the footage says otherwise. And her longtime ally, Anthony Agueroon, inside the capitol on J6. pic.twitter.com/GtxgX8nibX

The GQP has been fomenting violence and radicalizing fragile people right out in the open. When is something going to be done about it??
