According to recent reports, over 400 people have been charged following the events at the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6 as the FBI continues to search for more “suspects.”
U.S. House Rep Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) spoke out today on the House floor against what she called a political “two-track justice system here in America.”
Greene shared video of the speech in a three part tweet.
“If you are part of the Democrat-sponsored domestic terrorist orgs BLM & Antifa, you can burn down cities & businesses and murder citizens but face no investigation or commission from Congress,” Greene began in the first tweet.

Greene continued, “Meanwhile, if you are a Trump supporter who happened to be at the Capitol on January 6th, exorbitant bail, solitary confinement, abuse by jail guards and no due process.”

Ultimately, House Democrats voted 213-212 to approve a bill for $1.9 billion to bolster security at the Capitol following a tense and emotional debate.
Republicans called it a rush to judgment that should wait until security reviews about how to spend the money are completed and the bill’s fate is uncertain in the Senate.
