House Republican Marjorie Taylor Greene has claimed the Department of Justice and FBI "were planning to assassinate Pres [President] Trump" during the August 2022 raid on Mar-a-Lago that recovered boxes full of classified documents that were being held by the former president.
It followed Trump's claim on his Truth Social website that the DOJ "AUTHORIZED THE FBI TO USE DEADLY (LETHAL) FORCE" during the operation. However in a statement the FBI insisted it followed "standard protocol" during the operation which "includes a standard policy statement" on the use of force.
A court filling was unsealed on Tuesday showing briefing notes for the August 2022 Mar-a-Lago raid, which said: "Law enforcement officers of the Department of Justice may use deadly force when necessary."
Trump is facing 40 felony charges related to claims he deliberately held onto classified documents after leaving the White House in January 2021 and obstructed efforts to get them returned to the proper authorities. He has pleaded not guilty to all counts and denies any wrongdoing.
He said this means Biden is "A SERIOUS THREAT TO DEMOCRACY" and suggested he should be removed from office via the Constitution's 25th Amendment.
Greene shared a screenshot of this post on her X, formerly Twitter, account adding: "The Biden DOJ and FBI were planning to assassinate Pres Trump and gave the green light.
"Does everyone get it yet???!!!! What are Republicans going to do about it? I tried to oust our Speaker who funded Biden's DOJ AND FBI, but Democrats stopped it."
Any threats to assassinate any public officials, whether serious or in jest, may be reported to the proper authorities. (But its OK to mock them mercilessly).

That maniac doesn't belong in congress, she belongs in a straight jacket in a padded cell. The Republicans are really going to suffer for tolerating her connection with their party.
Rabble Rousing, anyone?

This is who got sent to congress from Georgia. Be ashamed. Very ashamed. she is unsound in reasoning and deliberate in sharing it. Georgia, at least one of your districts is being underserved.
BTW a while back I saw a TV reporter do a few brief interviews with people in her district-- they really like her!
I've seen interviews with people in her district, too. They like her, they think 2+2=5, they know for a fact that the Earth is flat.
MTG is not a well person. She is crass and confrontational to the ng degree!
Does she represent a mental health facility?
The fact that Americans vote for persons like her, but boot Liz Cheney from representing them says a lot to me about the IQ level of the American people.
MTG, Boebert, Trump, etc..., are all responsible for my moral code.
Anything that they are for, I'm against.
That's a good measure.
Was the FBI going to use Jewish Space Lasers to do the job?
isn't she in favor of full presidential immunity, like she is for her hero?
Locked, loaded and ready to go.
LOL, perfect, G.
Well, you have to admit it's at least innovative. LOL
Those Jewish Space Laser Thingies look really cool-- I want one!
Where can I get one (or maybe 2?)?
Do they sell them on Amazon?
You see, Marjorie can't be but so stupid, because even a congress person can appreciate that the word "assassinate" has a particular meaning to presidents. . . so what are the chances that if she is putting this. . . thought into the air. . . that she ran it pass Donald first?
Didn't he mention it first?
Possibly. I get the order of whom is speaking first (with those two) confused every time. (There really is no significant daylight between the lot of them.) I'm thinking they synchronize their scripts.
There is no daylight between them and they undoubtedly synchronize their scripts.
Let's play a game: Take a guess at what Gomer Pyle would say about Majorie becoming Donald's V. P. pick.
What ever the script writers wrote
Nope. That's not it. 'Final try coming up!'
Trump probably has a guinea pig tasting his Big Macs now that it’s so obvious that the gubbamint has a target on his back.
nah, he's got eric tasting his food...
he did 'nearly escape death'
Wow, trump's own FBI trying to assassinate him, a real feather in his cap.
MTG brings new meaning to the word DWEEB!
