‘Everybody up here has their panties in a wad’ over the January 6 pardons, the Georgia firebrand said of the press in Washington, D.C. Georgia Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene lashed out at a reporter who asked about Donald Trump’s sweeping pardons for January 6 criminals.
“I’m not doing this,” the Georgia Republican told Punchbowl News’ Melanie Zanona after she brought up President Donald Trump’s pardons for nearly 1,500 individuals convicted of crimes related to the Capitol attack and asked if Greene would give Capitol tours to them.
The Georgia Congresswoman then pivoted the focus to former President Joe Biden’s last-minute pardons for dozens of death row inmates, whom she described as “disgusting people.”. “Everybody up here has their panties in a wad” over the January 6 pardons, she said, seemingly referring to the Washington, D.C., press.
“A lot of them walked through open doors. That’s it,” Greene said of the convicts who stormed the Capitol building four years ago. Zanona pushed back, underscoring that Greene had been outspoken about getting justice for those convicted of January 6-related crimes.
“They’re pardoned and thank God, I hope they go live their lives and reassemble something back together. They have suffered enough,” the Georgia firebrand said. The coverage of the pardons “is nauseating,” Greene added. “I’ve seen all the Democrat-run networks ad nauseam about January 6. And they just can’t get over themselves. But they don’t give a s*** about real Americans!”.
