(PM.) Georgia Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene (MTG) was swatted for a third time in less than a week on Friday night.
She announced the incident on Twitter and linked to a scheduled interview with RSBN where she promised to show home security footage and 911 calls from the events.
Last night was another call to have me swatted.
Thank you @RSBNetwork for this exclusive interview that shows for the first time my home security video footage, 911 calls, and swatting by people trying to get me killed for my legislation to protect kids from the trans agenda. https://t.co/SFoDSUHZV1

Swatting is a criminal harassment tactic where the culprit deceives emergency services into sending an armed response team to another person’s address. MTG was swatted on both Tuesday and Wednesday night.
In the first encounter, officers were dispatched to Green’s residence “in reference to a male who had been shot five times in a bathtub. The call came in from a VA crisis line. As the details continued to be relayed, it was reported that the female was still in the residence and possibly had some children inside with her.”
Police arrived and the situation was quickly diffused.
Hours later, Rome (city)/ Floyd (county) authorities received a call from a computer generated voice which said they were upset with Greene’s proposal to criminalize transgender surgeries and hormone therapies for children.
On Thursday’s episode of the War Room, host Steve Bannon spoke with Greene hours after she was swatted for a second time.
