Yesterday, Georgia Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene was “swatted” at her home in Georgia after police received reports of shots being heard at her home. The incident at Casa de MTG was a false call made by an unknown third party.
Now it’s happened again, the second in two days. According to The Hill, officers showed up at Greene’s home after a letter was written to the police informing them of a hostage situation featuring one of Greene’s family members who had turned trans:
Local 911 received a chat from a person at 2.53 AM. It appeared that the chat was a suicide line. According to a police report, they claimed to have come out as transgender. They also said that they had shot their family.
“If anyone tried to stop me from shooting myself, I will shoot them,” wrote the individual, who allegedly identified themselves as “Wayne Greene.”
The Rome Police Department said officers responded to Greene’s home and confirmed it was a false report after speaking with her at the door.
The perpetrator uses a VPN so the letter can’t be tracked back to the source, but police are currently investigating.
“It’s very dangerous, Steve,” Greene told Steve Bannon while on his show on Thursday. “Because we haven’t found this person, or it may be a group of people, but whoever it is and whatever they are, their ideology is sick and disgusting.”
Swatting, a dangerous and perilous prank involves making threats to an address. This forces police to respond with a heavy-armed force. The victim will be scared to death by the police coming into their house. At worst, there is the possibility that an inept officer from the police force will trigger the gun after misinterpreting the movement.
The first time that swatting became popular was in gaming as a method to play prank streams. This problem became so serious that authorities across the nation began to crack down on fake reports.
Greene will only be made more powerful and her opponent’s hearts harder by this. Greene is known for laughing at criticisms and using them as a way to gain support. Case in point, Greene said she’s making plans for the next swatting incident, and that involves treating the officers to dinner.

Her surge was only supported by the support she received for keeping her off of the ballot in her last attempt earlier this year. It is unlikely that she will lose support after being subject to two different swatting efforts by radical leftists. It’s definitely not going to make her back down out of fear.
The person who is trying to swatt her is actually giving her support, and getting her a pizza dinner.
