Thanx to DUer Shellback Squid for pointing out that I used then vs the correct than!
Martial law is the imposition of direct military control of normal civil functions or suspension of civil law by a government, especially in response to an emergency where civil forces are overwhelmed, or in an occupied territory.
"In our private chat with only Members, several are saying the only way to save our Republic is for Trump to call for Marshall law," Greene wrote to Meadows on January 17, 2021. "I don't know on those things. I just wanted you to tell him. They stole this election. We all know. They will destroy our country next. Please tell him to declassify as much as possible so we can go after Biden and anyone else!"
That is one of multiple texts Greene sent to Meadows in the post-election period, around January 6, 2021. Greene also told Meadows "we think" the people who assaulted the Capitol on January 6 "are Antifa" dressed like Trump supporters. Meadows turned over his text messages to the January 6 committee probing the assault and then declined to cooperate further with the committee.

(145,152 posts)I had to check this because I was sure that this was satire. MTG is evidently serious about proclaiming that she is smart. I am amused

Greene engaged in an interview with Church Militant, and complained that the media had created a character of her. (She may have meant caricature.) She says the character that has been created covers up some of the most important facts about who she is as a person, including that being a mom is the most important thing to her, and that shes actually very smart.
The reason why they dont know who I truly am is because the media created a character of me, and thats the character they want to present to the American people. They dont want the American people to know that Im a wife, mother, and that I think being a mother is the best part of my life. They dont want the American people to understand that Im actually very smart, successful in business, and great with strategy, and that Im very passionate and committed to serving in Congress they dont want anyone to like me..because if they liked me, then my ideas and policy and legislation will be successful.
There is a tweet that contains a clip of this idiot actually saying the above crap but after listening to her statement, I decide to omit the tweet. If you have strong stomach, go to link and listen to this idiot tells us that she is really very smart
I hope that the Onion or Borowitz has fun with this
