Not to mention that he would have been armed,” said Taylor Greene, a staunch defender of the conspiracy theory. who defends that the presidential elections were rigged in favor of Joe Biden.

“They say it was all planned and I say, are you kidding? A group of conservatives, defenders of the second amendment (which contemplates the right to own guns), entered the Capitol without weapons, and you think we organized that?” questioned Taylor Greene.

That January 6, 2021, a mob of exalted ultranationalist followers of Donald Trump stormed the Capitol in Washington, to try to stop the process of transferring power to Joe Biden, winner of the presidential elections held the previous month of November.
