Mad Marge’s new fantasy

Georgia Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene appeared Monday to make light of the deadly attack on the U.S. Capitol, claiming that some of the pro-Trump insurrectionists were just “teenagers” taking a walk through the building.

The controversial first-term Republican, who has a history of promoting far-right conspiracy theories, made the comment in a tweet criticizing a police reform bill that is expected to get a vote in the House this week.

“If Democrats pass the Anti-Police bill this week, it will become illegal for the FBI to use facial recognition from video footage to identify suspects. The FBI won’t be able to tweet pics like this or of teenagers they are pursuing, who walked through the Capitol” on Jan. 6, Greene (inset) tweeted in response to a Feb. 16 post from the bureau asking the public for help to identify suspected attackers.

Nick Dyer, a spokesman for Greene, declined to say what formed the basis for the congresswoman’s claim about teenagers. Instead, when reached for comment, Dyer accused the Daily News of taking Greene’s words out of context.

“You are a liar and have already put words in her mouth,” Dyer said. “Stop being an unethical scribe for Democrats. Have a nice day!”

Despite Greene’s tweet, many of the individuals criminally charged with storming the Capitol are adults and affiliated with far-right extremist groups like the Proud Boys and the Oath Keepers, according to court papers.

Meantime, Greene’s claim about the legislation under consideration is also misleading.

The so-called George Floyd Justice in Policing Act, named after the Minneapolis man who died at the hands of police last spring, would not outright ban the use of facial recognition in law enforcement.
