In a rant posted to X on Monday, Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) doubled down on her previous demands to release all the security footage from the Capitol during the January 6 attack — this time suggesting it could help "patriots" prove a conspiracy theory that federal agents were planted in the crowd to incite the violence.
"I called for releasing the tapes and stopped doing so when it was explained to me that groups like sedition hunters would use facial recognition software to go after more vulnerable people," wrote Greene.
"After seeing the horrific inhumane treatment of pretrial J6 defendants in the DC jail in 2021 and being one of the few members of congress that is against the persecution of J6’ers, I was afraid the DOJ would unjustly target more people."
