Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.) is applying a label frequently applied to conservatives to the Democratic Party.
The Georgia congresswoman appeared on Fox News’ “Hannity.” She discussed the amount of attention devoted to riots during the racial justice protests in 2020 and the time spent on the Jan. 6 riot at the U.S. Capitol.
Host Sean Hannity asked, “Why ignore 574 riots and only focus on the one?”
“That’s exactly right,” Greene responded. “This is an organized effort by the Left, and it’s something that every single American needs to take seriously.”
She went on, “Antifa are the ground troops of the Democrat Party… This is who the Democrat Party is. They are the domestic terrorists, and Antifa needs to be held accountable.”
“And the Department of Justice better start doing their job,” Greene added.

The exchange comes as at least 23 people are expected to be hit with domestic terrorism charges after violent protests at the planned site of a law enforcement training center in Atlanta, Georgia.
It also comes after Fox News host Tucker Carlson released some of the 40,000 hours of footage from the Jan. 6 riot he was given in an attempt to downplay the violence that day. Carlson focused on one part of the footage, which appeared to show law enforcement walking with the so-called “QAnon Shaman” in the Capitol and declining to try to stop him.
“The tapes show the Capitol police never stopped Jacob Chansley. They helped him. They acted as his tour guides,” Carlson insisted. “If he was in the act of committing such a grave crime, why didn’t the officers standing right next to him place him under arrest?”
