Republican Reps. Matt Gaetz (Fla.), Majorie Taylor Greene (Ga.) and Louie Gohmert (Texas) on Thursday were turned away from the D.C. Department of Corrections where they tried to visit accused Jan. 6 rioters.

Video on Thursday shows officers, who said the group was trespassing and "obstructing entrance into this facility," denying the trio entry.

"The supervisor came down and was standing right here and turned her back on me. The other one said she won't talk anymore and that we're trespassers," Gohmert said in comments to the press after the situation.

"We're in totalitarian, Marxist territory here. This is the way third-world people get treated," he added.

Should have locked the three Gs up.

1. Funny, cubing the value of G doesn't increase it's value.

Mathematical paradox or.....?

8. Divide it into turds

[yonder]

20. You're making me laugh. Is pi involved somehow?

[GoneOffShore]

26. That would be bull turd pie.

[Marcuse]

28. Proof

30. Now you're talking. The proof is in the poo-ding.

2. Makes sense that they'd wanna see what it's like where they'll be living soon. nt

18. LOL, good one

[Casady1]

3. Gaetz will soon

be joining them,

[NJCher]

4. showing their ignorance of government again

First of all, you cannot show up at the door and be expected to be let into a prison. All that has to be cleared in advance and they check out who you are, what your record is, etc. Obviously they did not do this. The prison's stated motivation is security.

Second, on one of the clips (I believe it was Gaetz) they said they were an attorney there to see a client. The attorney for each prisoner is a matter of record. That information has to be sent in via paperwork in advance. You cannot just show up claiming to be a prisoner's attorney.

Duh. What a bunch of dufuses.

[Warpy]

16. This was pure theater and will play well to people who are stupider than they are

and sadly, the country is full of them, although Covid seems to be paring their numbers down somewhat.

At this point, I doubt the prisoners wanted to see three drooling propagandists, anyway, listening to those assholes is what put them into jail in the first place.

24. Gaetz thought doing tequila shots was part of his bar exam.

[Faux pas]

5. And

the traveling clown shit show goes on and on and on...

Lol they should have been escorted to their own cells

[underpants]

6. Worst. Roadshow. Ever.

The triple fiasco in California
That blown up press event on Tuesday
This

Trump proved that there IS such a thing as bad publicity.

[Shellback Squid]

7. just checking out their soon-to-be accommodations

it's going to have to be a surprise

[Historic NY]

9. they should have let them ckeck out a cell and locked it.

[Evolve Dammit]

10. GOP is the chain on America's neck that needs to be broken. Now. nt

[johnnyfins]

11. Do they not know that everyone sees right through them?

I know, let's get 3 of the WORST human beings in Congress, make up some horseshit about political prisoner abuse, and it will grab more media attention than the Jan 6th hearings. Sounds like a GQP idea.

[Justice matters.]

15. They only care about telling their QULT of ignorants what they want to hear.

Them and their faux-noise-hate-radio propagandists.

[LudwigPastorius]

12. Fuck those clowns.

I hope a Volkswagen-sized meteor falls on them.

[George II]

13. (responded to wrong post)

14. "Matt Gaetz complaining about being locked out of jail is just too funny for words...."

[KS Toronado]

19. Remember when some congresswomen tried to visit

Qrump's child prisons and were turned away?

[Traildogbob]

21. I think

The three needed to get to their cohorts and tell them do not flip on us or we can’t fight to get you freed. Rat us out, you get no help. We got Nancy cornered and Fox has AmurKKKa working to end this whole sham. We will get you out August 13th, just hang tight and keep quite.

[hadEnuf]

22. Terrorist leaders are not allowed to visit their criminal followers in jail to plan more terror.

Really, when are these subhuman scum going to be ejected from the house and hopefully arrested?

This is insane.

25. 3G network - slow, out of date, and lacking any kind of useful equipment or function... n/t

31. Useful for voice communication and that's about it.

Fitting for these three, always yammering and never making sense.

29. Their message: "Stay silent, don't make a deal. You'll be pardoned in August!"

[llashram]

33. well we will see

if there is any thunder behind their threatened lightning, won't we.

[llashram]

32. three trump gumps

they really are charlatans and such a minority always. A minority that can't be ignored, yet still a minority. I am determined to resist till the day I die. For a not few decades.

[orangecrush]

34. Let them further implicate themselves

They may get to visit their seditionist buddies for a nice, long time.

35. I enjoyed this so much that
