WASHINGTON, DC: Jake Chansley, or the man infamously known as “QAnon Shaman”, served about 27 months in prison for his role in the January 6 Capitol attack. He had pleaded guilty to a single  count of felony obstruction of an official proceeding, as per NBC News.

Over the weekend, Republican congresswoman and Trump supporter Marjorie Taylor Greene met Chansley and took her time to explain why she was “honored” to meet him.

Greene claimed that Chansley is “still the face of January 6” and labeled him “remarkably positive, happy, forgiving, and determined” despite the events that escalated after the January 6 attacks at the Capitol, and the internet is not thrilled.

On X, formerly known as Twitter, Marjorie Taylor Greene shared a picture of herself with Jake Chansley as the two posed together. Greene wrote, “I was honored to meet Jake Chansley this weekend, and I want to explain why I say honored.”



 

She added, “The entire country knows Jake as the face of the Jan 6th 'Insurrection' because the media plastered his image and slandered him all over the world, the Biden regime’s DOJ wrongfully prosecuted him for innocently and nonviolently walking through the Capital, and he was then treated horrifically in prisons even being held in solitary confinement for over 10 months just like many other J6’ers.”

“Yet when I spoke with Jake, he is remarkably positive, happy, forgiving, and determined. Most people would be crushed and forever destroyed after being treated so horrendously by the media and their own government, but not Jake,” continued Greene.

Greene also dragged her own “GOP conference” and wrote, “I am constantly angry and frustrated with my own GOP conference that most Republicans in Washington refuse to do anything to help the J6’ers, while the federal government continues to tyrannically destroy their lives. Many of them nonviolently walked in and out of the Capital and have been and are still being locked up for years, while over 95% of violent BLM and Antifa rioters charges were dropped!”

“This is such a hypocritical injustice in America and it makes me sick. If Antifa and BLM walk free after continuous 2020 riots attacking police, federal buildings and monuments, looting and burning, murder, and causing $2+ billion in damages to communities all over America, then J6’ers should easily walk free as well. There is hardly a comparison and the hypocrisy is grotesque,” added Greene.

The congresswoman also said, “Yet it’s not really what J6’ers did that causes the DOJ to continue to persecute them, it’s really about what they said on January 6th. This is really about punishing Americans who dared to use their 1st amendment - their free speech to protest against the government, which the American people have the right to do, and the DOJ continues to persecute them in order to teach a lesson to the American people to never do it again.”

“It is cruel and unusual, actually shameful, the way this administration continues it’s perversion of justice. The American people know it and are grieved and angered by it. It is literally one of the biggest issues people ask me about all over the country and they always ask me why Republicans don’t stop it. While Washington DC has one of the highest murder rates and crime statistics in the country, the politicized and weaponized DOJ hunts and persecutes it’s perceived political enemies instead of putting real criminals behind bars and keeping DC safe,” wrote Greene in her post about Chansley.

Greene’s claims against the Department of Justice continued as she wrote, “The DOJ thinks and wants you to think that MAGA grandmas and veterans are more dangerous than criminal migrants, terrorists, and child sex traffickers, and Republicans in Washington refuse to work together to stop the politically weaponized DOJ.”

She showcased her admiration for Chansley and wrote, “Beyond the hat and the face paint is a person, an American, who was wronged by the Democrat mouthpiece media, the Democrat administration, and stuck up weak Republican establishment, and I was honored to meet Jake because he seems to be a better person than all of them combined.”

“Jake is still the face of January 6th but I think that may be now because he has a spirit of perseverance through times of persecution. And that’s the spirit many Americans need in these trying times. Never give up!” concluded Greene.
