Georgia GOP Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene is accusing the FBI “operatives” of “organizing and carrying out the Jan 6th Capitol riot” and is demanding their names to be released.
“We need names and answers about the FBI operatives, who were involved in organizing and carrying out the Jan 6th Capitol riot,” Greene tweeted Wednesday. “First they had a ‘back up plan’ to stop Trump in Russia Collusion witch hunt, now we are finding out they were deeply involved in Jan 6th. Deep State.”
Of course, none of her claims are true.
The QAnon “insurrection truther” also shared a clip of Fox News host Tucker Carlson in which he suggests the Federal Bureau of Investigation is responsible for the deadly attack on the US Capitol.
In the clip, former FBI Assistant Director For Counterintelligence Frank Figliuzzi says the Bureau may need to arrest sitting members of Congress for domestic terrorism, a reasonable response if any took any part in the January 6 insurrection to overturn the election in a violent and deadly attack on the U.S. Capitol, also known as a “coup.”
Carlson went ballistic, twisting Figliuzzi’s words, and then – based on zero evidence, said, “How about rounding up the FBI operatives who rioted on January 6.”
Watch:
