Here is one great patriot in the congress serving [[?) the 14th congressional district in the State of Georgia. Marjorie Taylor Greene.

Support for executing prominent Democrats

CNN reported on January 26, 2021 that Greene had expressed support via comments and 'likes' for the execution of leading Democrats on her Facebook page in 2018 and 2019, including Barack Obama, Hillary Clinton, and Nancy Pelosi, as well as FBI agents.^[52]^[9] To the question from one poster in April 2018 who asked "Now do we get to hang them ?? Meaning H & O???," she responded: "Stage is being set. Players are being put in place. We must be patient. This must be done perfectly or liberal judges would let them off." She did not deny the indications of support but maintained, "Over the years, I've had teams of people manage my pages. Many posts have been liked. Many posts have been shared. Some did not represent my views."^[52]House Speaker Nancy Pelosi described the meme as a "dangerous threat of violence," and Omar demanded that the meme be deleted after claiming it had already triggered death threats.^[23] In response to questions from Forbes about whether the meme was a threat, a spokesperson for the Greene campaign called the suggestion "paranoid and ridiculous" and a "conspiracy theory".^[25] Facebook deleted the meme the following day for violating its policies on inciting violence, prompting Greene to claim that Democrats were "trying to cancel me out before I've even taken the oath of office".^[26]
