‘They Are Suffering Greatly’: Greene Visits Accused Jan. 6 Rioters at DC Jail

Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.) visited accused January 6 rioters at the D.C. Department of Corrections, claiming “they have felt forgotten and hopeless.”

In a Friday Twitter thread, Greene detailed her visit to the jail.

“Last night we toured the DC jail. My staff and I are writing a full report this morning on our 3+ hour long tour. I’ve never seen human suffering like I witnessed last night. While some were shown to us in seemingly beneficial programs, others were in tortuous lockdown,” Greene explained.

She continued, “Some inmates were receiving continuing education classes, others were truly suffering from long stays in solitary confinement for ‘bad behavior.’ I’ll never forget hearing their screams. This was in a different part of the jail, not the J6 part. Being alone surely is hell.”

I’ll never forget hearing their screams.

This was in a different part of the jail, not the J6 part.

Being alone surely is hell.

Greene said she was told seeing the defendants was not part of her tour, adding, “I demanded to see them and would have gone scorched earth if I was not allowed and was making it known.” – READ MORE
