Marjorie Taylor Greene claims she was SWATTED at 1am at her Georgia home
Firebrand Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene claims that her home was ‘swatted’ in the early hours of Wednesday morning.
In a seemingly off-the-cuff tweet just before 9am, the Donald Trump ally thanked her local police department and promised more information would be revealed.
She did not elaborate further on what kind of operation she claims happened.
‘Last night, I was swatted just after 1 am. I can’t express enough gratitude to my local law enforcement here in Rome, Floyd County. More details to come,’ Greene wrote on Twitter.
Greene has led GOP criticism of federal law enforcement in recent weeks ever since the FBI’s unannounced search of Trump’s Mar-a-Lago estate in Florida.
In the early hours of August 8, the FBI executed a search warrant on the Palm Beach mansion in an operation linked to classified documents sought by the National Archives.
Trump’s allies like Greene and GOP Conference Chair Rep. Elise Stefanik decried the raid as a weaponization of the Justice Department and have demanded consequences for Attorney General Merrick Garland and FBI Director Christopher Wray.
It’s prompted criticism from other Republicans who cite federal warnings of an increased wave of violent threats against federal law enforcement workers in the FBI raid’s fallout.
It’s not clear what Greene meant by ‘swatted,’ however, nor if it was the result of a federal operation or anything linked to Trump.
DailyMail.com has reached out to Greene’s spokesman, the Justice Department and the Rome Police Department for comment.
