Marjorie Taylor Greene fumes after explosive report links her to Jan. 6 ‘Stop the Steal’ rally
QAnon Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) on Monday fumed after a Rolling Stone report linked her to the planning of the January 6th "Stop the Steal" rally in Washington, D.C that preceded the Capitol riot.
In an interview with the Daily Caller, Greene railed against Rolling Stone for not naming their sources, even though using anonymous sources is a common practice in journalism.
"They're talking about their sources and sources and quoting sources, but not giving names, so that just reminds me of the whole Russian collusion lie, and the type of language that Adam Schiff uses when he's talking about sources," Greene fumed. "The whole thing is their same playbook. Make up a story, publish it, then all the other outlets rinse and repeat."
Although the report claimed Greene was involved in planning the demonstration ahead of the riot, it did not claim that she knew of or advocated for pro-Trump demonstrators planning to violently storm the Capitol building.
The most explosive claim in the report revolved around Rep. Paul Gosar (R-AZ), who allegedly promised demonstrators that Trump was planning to give them a blanket pardon for an unrelated ongoing investigation if they continued to protest the 2020 election results.
Gosar, however, similarly denied the Rolling Stone story and described it to the Daily Caller as "categorically false and defamatory."
