"SNIP.....

Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) “declined to say whether unlawfully interfering with the counting of electoral votes in a presidential election would make someone ‘an enemy of the Constitution,’ as she testified about her role in the Jan. 6, 2021, attack on the U.S. Capitol as part of a case seeking to disqualify from her from seeking reelection,” the Washington Post reports.

Said Greene: “I don’t know. I don’t know if it defines it that way.”

Greene also said that she believed Joe Biden had lost the 2020 election to President Donald Trump but claimed it was “not accurate” that she wanted Congress not to certify Biden as the winner.

Goddard:

What Greene said on Jan. 3, 2021: “We aren’t going to let this election be stolen by Joe Biden and the Democrats.”
