WASHINGTON, DC: During the fourth Republican debate on Wednesday, December 6, Indian-American entrepreneur Vivek Ramaswamy briefly spoke about the January 6 Capitol riots.

In his statement, Ramaswamy said, “Why am I the only person on this stage at least who can say that Jan 6 now does look like it was an inside job?”

After the debate, Ramaswamy elaborated a little more on this claim, and in turn received support from Republican congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene, who agreed with him, and the internet was not happy about it.

Marjorie Taylor Greene claims January 6 US Capitol attack ‘was a Fedsurrection’

On X, formerly known as Twitter, Marjorie Taylor Greene shared a clip of Vivek Ramaswamy after the fourth GOP debate in Alabama, where he spoke more about his claims about January 6 United States Capitol attack.

Greene wrote in response, “Vivek is right. J6 was a Fedsurrection and undercover agents set people up with entrapment. J6ers are being held as political prisoners and more people are being arrested—on average 1 a day many nonviolent and never even entered the Capital.”



 

She added, “Those involved must be investigated and held accountable —even jailed! Subpoenas for Nancy Pelosi, Liz Cheney, Adam Schiff, Wray and everyone else involved in the coverup.”

The clip was originally shared by Ramaswamy on X, who wrote, “If you’d have told me nearly 3 years ago when I was just a CEO that Jan. 6 was an inside job, I would’ve said that’s crazy talk. It’s not. There is now clear evidence that there was at the very least entrapment of peaceful protestors, similar to the fake Gretchen Whitmer kidnapping plot & countless other cases.”



 

He added, “The FBI won’t admit how many undercover officers were in the field on Jan 6, Capitol police on one hand fired rubber bullets & explosives into a peaceful crowd who they then willingly later allowed to enter the Capitol.”

“That doesn’t add up & the actual evidence turns the prior narrative upside down: if the deep state is willing to manufacture an “insurrection” to take down its political opponents, they can do anything. Once you see it, you can’t unsee it. Too bad for CNN, we’ll take the TRUTH on Jan. 6 mainstream,” concluded Ramaswamy.

Internet reacts to Marjorie Taylor Greene backing Vivek Ramaswamy

After Marjorie Taylor Greene agreed to Vivek Ramaswamy’s claims on January 6, the internet’s response was prompt. One user wrote, “Said with literally zero proof.”



 

“Just another MTG conspiracy theory. Spreading lies and lies, and more lies,” wrote one user, and another shared a gif that read, “You’re a clown.”



 



 

One user wrote, “Oh Great, now this one opens her God Awful Gobstopper again,” and another wrote, “Liar!”



 



 

Greene continued to face backlash on X, as one user wrote, “Gaslighting 7/24.”
