The Daily Beast reports:
Members of the so-called sedition caucus, the moniker given to Republican lawmakers who have refused to acknowledge the truth of what happened on Jan. 6, were chased out of their own press conference on Tuesday by a man blowing a whistle and a protester holding a “RAPIST” sign.
Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-FL), who is under federal investigation for sex trafficking, appeared alongside other proponents of the “Big Lie” like Reps. Marjorie Taylor Greene (GA), Paul Gosar (AZ), and Louie Gohmert (TX) to complain about the Jan. 6 hearing that was underway in the House on Tuesday morning.
Read the full article. The last clip below? Whee! That’s Greene’s spox shouting, “Media! You saw what happened here! The left shut us down! The left hates free speech!” Watch Gaetz flee a woman shouting repeatedly, “Are you a pedophile, Congressman Gaetz?”
