Peach State Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R) has a front-row seat for the protests at the Capitol on Wednesday; she even live-streamed the event for her followers on social media.

Now, Greene is calling for a censure of pro-Palestinian Congresswoman Rashida Tlaib, who is still peddling misinformation about an explosion near a hospital in Gaza, and asking U.S. Capitol Police Chief Thomas Manger to preserve all security footage from the protests.

Greene sent a letter to Manger.

“The group that organized the insurrection, Jewish Voice for Peace, is a pro-Islamic anti-Semitic group that seeks the destruction of the state of Israel, according to the Anti-Defamation League,” the letter says.

“These actors caused elevators to be shut down, staircases and hallways to be blocked, exits to be made inaccessible, and official legislative business to be obstructed, putting Members of Congress, their staffs, and Capitol visitors at risk,” Greene said of the demonstration.

CC’ing Chairman Rep. Bryan Steil, R-Wis., Greene also said the Committee on House Administration “must investigate this incident and review all footage and evidence provided by Capitol Police, and the insurrectionists involved must be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law.”
