“We’ve heard a lot about text messages,” Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene (Q-Georgia)–who’s about to get another fine for not wearing a facemask on the floor of the House–drones as she tries to deflect the news that former White House chief of staff Mark Meadows was texting with Fox News personalities and members of Congress looking to get Donald Trump to call of his horde attacking the Capitol on January 6th. “I’d like the Democrats and the people on the January 6th committee to produce their text messages, Mr. Speaker, denouncing antifa-BLM riots that raged across American cities for a year. I would love to read those.” She then went on to call Democrats communists and supporters of communism.
Democratic Maryland Congressman Jamie Raskin quickly sets the record straight about who coddles communists: “We are not communists as the gentlelady from Georgia suggested. That’s just the friends of the former president who you lionize, like the dictator of North Korea, who he loves, and Vladimir Putin, who said the greatest tragedy of the 20th Century was the collapse of the Soviet Union. So those are your friends. Don’t put them on our side.”
