Please tell him to declassify as much as possible so we can go after Biden and anyone else!"

Trump’s former national security adviser Michael Flynn was one of the first to advocate for martial law. Last Friday, Green became the first member of Congress to publicly testify under oath about the events surrounding the Capitol attack. Please tell him to declassify as much as possible so we can go after Biden and anyone else!” “I don’t know on those things,” Greene continued in her exchange with Meadows. “I just wanted you to tell him. “Mark I was just told there is an active shooter on the first floor of the Capitol Please tell the President to calm people This isn’t the way to solve anything,” Greene texted Meadows during the attack, according to the collection of messages. They stole this election.

Greene's appearance in an Atlanta courtroom was one of the first times a member of Congress has been questioned under oath about the attack. "Good morning Mark, I'm here in DC. We have to get organized for the 6th," Greene said in a Dec. 31, 2020, text message, according to CNN. "I would like to meet with Rudy Giuliani again. "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 texted Meadows, misspelling the word "martial." "They stole this election. She alluded to having met previously with Rudy Giuliani, who was Trump's personal attorney at the time. We didn't get to speak with him long. Please tell him to declassify as much as possible so we can go after Biden and anyone else!"

It was funny to see Marjorie Taylor Greene misspell "martial law" in a text to the Trump White House, but the message itself was deeply scary.

Rather, she sent in 11 days after Jan. 6, as Trump prepared to exit the office. The text messages, which were obtained by CNN, help illuminate how far the Trump White House and its allies secretly tried to go to overturn the 2020 election. At issue are 2,319 text messages Trump’s former right-hand man shared with the House select committee investigating the Jan. 6 attack, many of which were posted to CNN’s website yesterday. “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, apparently trying to refer to martial law. Nevertheless, it was of interest why the right-wing congresswoman was even asked such a question in the first place. Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene was in court on Friday, testifying in response to an effort to disqualify her from running for re-election.
