On Wednesday, Reps. Matt Gaetz (R-FL) and Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) without evidence accused the FBI of orchestrating the Jan. 6 mob attack on the U.S. Capitol.

Gaetz posted a video of an appearance by former Donald Trump speechwriter Darren Beattie on Fox News, embedded in a tweet that reads, "BREAKING: @DarrenJBeattie of Revolver News breaks down the involvement of FBI operatives who organized and participated in the January 6th Capitol riot."

Greene shared Gaetz's post and added, "We need names and answers about the FBI operatives, who were involved in organizing and carrying out the Jan 6th Capitol riot," Greene tweeted. "First they had a 'back up plan' to stop Trump in Russia Collusion witch hunt, now we are finding out they were deeply involved in Jan 6th. Deep State."

Gaetz and Greene based their claims on Beattie's appearance on "Tucker Carlson Tonight," which has been a venue for the airing of many right-wing conspiracies.

2. Have they tried blaming the UN yet?

That should go down well with the QAnon types.

Or HAARP ...

6. Yes, of the "Deep State"

I would simply ask them why "professional color operatives" would want Trump in there for four more years.

So now it looks like the "Deep State" is responsible for this. Never mind that Trump directly urged them to go down to the Capitol and "fight like hell". Never mind that McConnell on Trump's final day in office directly blamed Trump for "provoking the mob to go to the Capitol". No, it was the "Deep State". as Gaetz and Greene would have us believe.

7. They need to go to the Truth Museum.
