MTG Swatted on Christmas: ‘This Is Like the 8th Time’

Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene’s (R-Ga.) Christmas was disrupted by another swatting incident.

On Monday, Greene wrote, “I was just swatted. This is like the 8th time. On Christmas with my family here.”

“My local police are the GREATEST and shouldn’t have to deal with this. I appreciate them so much and my family and I are in joyous spirits celebrating the birth of our savior Jesus Christ!” she added.

Cambridge Dictionary describes swatting as “the action of making a false report of a serious emergency so that a SWAT team (a group of officers trained to deal with dangerous situations) will go to a person’s home, by someone who wants to frighten, upset, or cause problems for that person.”

Greene has repeatedly been the target of swatting incidents starting in August of last year.

She shared she was also swatted on Dec. 21 and shared screen shots of a death threat she received.

Greene went on to blast the FBI for what she claimed was a double standard in how law enforcement dealt the person allegedly behind the texts and Jan. 6 rioters.

“They simply called him on the phone and Cap Police sent us this email about what he said. The outright absurdity of this email response and the fact that they have not arrested this guy is shocking, thankfully I’m a gun owner,” she wrote on X, formerly Twitter.

She added, “After today, I have been swatted 8 times but the FBI can’t seem to figure out who is responsible for the swatting and says the law doesn’t allow them to track them down.”

Finally, Greene said, “Swatting is extremely dangerous and people have been killed as a result from swatting calls. It’s also a waste of police time and resources and harassment. I will be introducing legislation to track down swatters.”
