Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene has made a shocking claim, accusing President Joe Biden of “planning to assassinate” former President Donald Trump.
Greene’s accusation after Tuesday’s court proceedings in Trump’s hush money trial, when Trump spoke to reporters and continued his tirade on Truth Social, making claims that the Department of Justice “AUTHORIZED THE FBI TO USE DEADLY (LETHAL) FORCE” during the execution of a search warrant at Mar-a-Lago in August 2022.
Greene seized on Trump’s comment, asserting that the Biden administration tried to kill the former president.
“I made sure that he knew,” Greene wrote on social media. “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.”
This is not the first time Greene has spread such a theory. In April, she told noted conspiracy theorist Alex Jones that Democrats might be looking to harm Trump.
“They want President Trump dead,” she said. “They want to lock him up in jail for the rest of his life, so that he dies in jail, and they want to take away his Secret Service protection so that he is murdered somewhere in jail, possibly. This is how serious they are.”

The Republicans have a strong bench of MAGA-acceptable candidates, almost all of whom would be less objectionable to the “Reagan Republicans” than Trump. If anyone (other than a conservative Republican) were to assassinate Trump, it would probably guarantee a Republican landslide of epic proportions.
Please !!! Prominent , this is a joke
She is one of the biggest NUTS
She is nuts no doubt. But if the report is true that they authorized deadly force that means they were prepared (hoping??) to shoot Trump if necessary.
She wins the award for being the absolutely most stupid member of congress.
She is a brainless idiot.
She makes a fool out of herself every time she opens her mouth.
Maybe the next time YWN calls her prominent, I will tell you what she really is.
So are these Republicans as stupid as they appear or is their stupidity shtik just another reason to vote for Abe Lincoln in November.
The FBI order for the raid on Mar-a-Lago was recently declassified. As all FBI orders do, it contained a copy of the FBI’s use-of-force policy, which includes the use of deadly force when necessary. Julie Kelly saw the order, thought it meant (if we assume she wasn’t acting in bad faith here) that deadly force had been specifically authorized for the Mar-a-Lago raid, and tweeted that.
A better headline might have been “Woah: Prominent Republican is a Fool,”
but is that actually news to anyone regarding MTG?
