Marjorie Taylor Greene Pushes Wild Claim 'Honey Pots' Were Used to Make Jan. 6 Rioters 'Commit Crime [View all]

Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) made a wild suggestion that “honey pots” may have been used to entrap Jan. 6 participants.

The claim came from the Congresswoman’s Rumble podcast MTG Battleground on Wednesday, where she talked about having viewed portions of the Jan. 6 tapes.

“We have brave FBI whistleblowers and other whistleblowers that are coming forward and informing our committees about this information,” Greene said.

“You see, this should never happen. The federal government should never be weaponized against the people and set up honeypots and traps to draw people in and actually take part in making these people commit crimes and then framing the people to set up a narrative against a president,” Greene added.

So... Yeah... She has no clue what a honeypot is, she really is that stupid. The take away for us to know that no matter how stupid a thing she says... Something stupider will be said by her shortly.
