Marjorie Taylor Greene indicated support for executing prominent Democrats in 2018 and 2019 before running for Congress

Republican Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene repeatedly indicated support for executing prominent Democratic politicians in 2018 and 2019 before being elected to Congress, a CNN KFile review of hundreds of posts and comments from Greene's Facebook page shows.

Greene, who represents Georgia's 14th Congressional District, frequently posted far-right extremist and debunked conspiracy theories on her page, including the baseless QAnon conspiracy which casts former President Donald Trump in an imagined battle against a sinister cabal of Democrats and celebrities who abuse children.

In one post, from January 2019, Greene liked a comment that said "a bullet to the head would be quicker" to remove House Speaker Nancy Pelosi. In other posts, Greene liked comments about executing FBI agents who, in her eyes, were part of the "deep state" working against Trump.

In one Facebook post from April 2018, Greene wrote conspiratorially about the Iran Deal, one of former President Barack Obama's signature foreign policy achievements. A commenter asked Greene, "Now do we get to hang them ?? Meaning H & O ???," referring to Obama and Hillary Clinton.

Greene replied, "Stage is being set. Players are being put in place. We must be patient. This must be done perfectly or liberal judges would let them off."

After CNN reached out to Greene, her personal Twitter account posted a statement in which she did not deny that she liked posts and replied to comments but claimed that many people have run her Facebook page.

"Over the years, I've had teams of people manage my pages. Many posts have been liked. Many posts have been shared. Some did not represent my views. Especially the ones that CNN is about to spread across the internet," she wrote.
Greene did not specify whether she or a member of her team were behind the posts reviewed by CNN's KFile.

CNN reached out to Pelosi's office for comment multiple times but did not receive a response.

Though her tenure in Congress has only lasted a few weeks, Greene is already facing calls to leave the House for her role in fanning the flames of the Capitol insurrection earlier this month after she objected to the election certification process and falsely insisted that Trump would remain president.

After Democratic Rep. Jimmy Gomez called on Greene to be expelled from the House for her role in the insurrection, Greene condemned the violence at the Capitol and falsely accused "Antifa/BLM terrorism" and Democratic politicians of stoking the insurrection.

"I fully condemn ALL violence. The Antifa/BLM terrorism funded on ActBlue rests with Democrat accomplices like @CoriBush @Ilhan @KamalaHarris @AOC @timkaine & many more... Those who stoke insurrection & spread conspiracies have blood on their hands. They must be expelled," she tweeted.

Last week Greene faced calls to resign from the survivors of the Parkland shooting survivors after Media Matters reported she agreed with comments calling the 2018 shooting a "false flag" operation, which refers to acts that are designed by perpetrators to be made to look like they were carried out by other individuals or groups.
CNN's KFile found additional comments from Greene where she called David Hogg, a survivor and activist, "#littleHitler" and spread a conspiracy that he was a "bought and paid little pawn" and actor.

Before she ran for Congress in 2020, Greene created a White House petition in January 2019 to impeach the House speaker for "crimes of treason," citing Pelosi's support of so-called sanctuary policies that "are serving illegals and not United States citizens" and because Pelosi did not support Trump's border wall.

In one speech, promoting the petition, Greene suggested Pelosi could be executed for treason.

"She's a traitor to our country, she's guilty of treason," Greene says in the video, which she posted on Facebook at the time. "She took an oath to protect American citizens and uphold our laws. And she gives aid and comfort to our enemies who illegally invade our land. That's what treason is. And by our law representatives and senators can be kicked out and no longer serve in our government. And it's, uh, it's a crime punishable by death is what treason is. Nancy Pelosi is guilty of treason."

In another Facebook Live broadcast from inside Pelosi's office on February 22, 2019, Greene suggested the House speaker will "suffer death or she'll be in prison" for her "treason." Notably, Greene never mentions a trial. In another broadcast from later that day, she suggested California Rep. Maxine Waters was "just as guilty of treason as Nancy Pelosi."

In the comments of her Facebook posts, often promoting the petition, Greene liked a comment that said "through removal or death, doesn't matter, as long as she goes," referring to Pelosi, and another that encouraged Greene to "beat Pelosi's ass."

The petition for Pelosi's impeachment and removal for treason amassed over 420,000 signatures as of January 2021.

On social media, Greene portrays herself as an opponent to political violence and casts Democrats as the real instigators of political violence, either real or imaginary, who get away with threatening calls for violence.

"Do any of you remember a day when talking about assassinating the President resulted in getting arrested? As in arrested in real life, not FB [Facebook] jail. When was that? Pre-2016 I think, right??? But if you are a conservative that's a different story!" wrote Greene in 2019.

While Greene notes in Facebook posts that she disavows and denounces violence, within the comment sections of Greene's Facebook page, commenters frequently cheer for politicians to be executed by hanging or firing squad.
Elsewhere on her Facebook page, Greene liked comments that advocated to "arrest" Obama and former Secretary of State John Kerry and one comment that said, "HANG that bitch," referring to either Obama or Kerry or possibly both of them. She also liked a comment that urged for "civil war 2.0" to begin.

Greene, who has embraced and spread the baseless conspiracy theory about a "deep state" working to usurp Trump's agenda, suggested in Facebook posts that FBI agents disloyal to Trump were traitors.

She liked a comment that said, "Trump already said there were some great ones working with FBI but some have fallen and quite frankly need to be hung for TREASON!" Another she liked said, "These Traitors need to be put to death as an example of what will no longer be tolerated in our country!!!"

Crazy QAnon Karen.

Here's a 2 min video of her harassing David Hogg

She is a vile repugnant women. They have finally called for her expulsion, I hope it happens.

The attached vid doesn't show anything way wrong.

I am not a fan of "60 Minutes" tactics, but it is what it is. I guess it isn't going away.

As to advocating killing people, I clearly don't support that. I just don't know how serious a few comments on social media might be. Lot's of things can be said that are open to interpretation.

So just focusing on this video, and ignoring the other vile stuff she's done....

Is David Hogg a child (that needs to be protected) or an activist? I see how this video is being posted, and it seems that certain folks want to have it both ways.

Again... not defending her so much as giving some counterpoint to the argument put out with this video.

You'd feel differently if it was David Hogg calling for the killing of Republicans

Yeah, but a couple of the several things she does isn't "way wrong" or anything. You can't make this stuff up.

I'd be very curious to see what her actual constituents think about all this.

The title says it all and the article doesn't add much, but feel free to clivk the included link to read

Well alrighty then. Nothing to see here coming from the right once again. Typical.

So she’s a confirmed anti-Semite, too?

And Republicans are giving giving Liz Cheney more grief.

C'mon EVERBODY knows about the space lasers.... If you are late to the party, ask Throwlong, he can clue you in,.

If I’m working R&D at the military or defense contractor, all I gotta do is listen to the crazies for dope ideas.

“Yo, general. Got another idea”

“What is it”

“Space lasers”

“Why?”

“Because...space lasers”

“Aight lemme start buying more hammers at 30 bucks a pop”

She's not completely wrong. It was a space laser from the moon but it was controlled by Dr Evil. If only we would have paid that one meee-llion dollars.

Our conservative brethren on here are quite quiet on her.

Do all of you support her? Eve, care to comment since she’s in your state?

Haha, not so much...

It’s usually more like Congress going “hey, military buy these because the defense contractor in my district makes them.”

“But we don’t want that much and certainly not that many.”

“Cool, well I’m telling you that you have to spend the money this way.”

-or-

“Defense contractor, we need to buy this stuff for our military.”

“So it’s important?”

“Yeah”

“That’ll be $1 zillion.”

“It doesn’t cost that much.”

“Do you want to arm your troops or not? We’re the only ones that make it.”

“We paid to develop it.”

“We lobbied Congress to change the laws so we have the data rights and nobody else can make it. Sorry.”

“All right. $1 zillion it is.”

Bro, at the current trend, she’s going to be president in 2024.

1 zillion is cool but then we better take over a country like Montenegro with that.

Claim Montenegro. Fix their infrastructure. Force our way directly into the EU markets.

Spread McDonald’s, Burger King, Wendy’s, and taco bell far and wide.

Spread capitalism through diabetes. Profit.

Never heard of her. She seems like a wackadoodle.

Hey look, we agree again. Seems like once every 90 days we see eye to eye.

Can you go move to her district and vote her out next round?

She’s on the education committee in the house.

Reprehensible. She should step down.

She is a representative elected by the people of her district. She is a idiot. Congress is full of idiots.

I view her as I view Maxine Waters. They have no business being in Congress, but as long as the Neanderthals of their districts keep voting for them, what are you going to do?

The right wing nuts go....”Her election was legit:”

The age of these reprehensible opportunists "doing the right thing" and stepping down is long gone. Hawley and this lady are cut from the same cloth. They have zero interest in doing what's right or best for people they represent, they see their gig as a fast track to $$$$ and influence. May they long rot in hell.

JMO here, but wishing that on someone is probably a good way to end up there yourself.

Just something to think about.

Hahaha... dude....

That's what you're going to wash the finger at in this thread?

As long as we have Jim Jordan, Steve Scalise and Kevin McCarthy in GOP leadership, we will have MGT as well.

And yes the Dems have their whack a doodles in AOC, and Maxine Waters, but I have to say MGT is a special kind of repulsive that has no bounds.

Expect nothing, absolutely nothing from house leadership.. She is Donnie’s girl.

Well she wanted Pelosi shot so....

No - not really. You see someone truly corrupt and devoid of principals - willing to crap over others to make themselves rich ... I don't believe wishing they get what they deserve is in any way tainting myself or putting myself at their level.

If you were given the the choice of removing any one and only one from congress who would you choose? I would have a hard time not picking Jim Jordan

Gym Jockstrap is my first choice, too.

Never Again!

I agree. She should never hold office again.

Sorry

Not for us Atheists. Nice try though. I'd drive the two of them there myself if the place existed.

Yeah, no.

Get out of here with your trash opinion. You equating individuals wanting policy that will help all Americans with those who want a white Christian theocratic ethnostate ain’t the sort of take you really want to make here, Charger.

AOC only has one thing correct in that tweet. She is, in fact, a clown show.
