Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene (MTG) revealed that police officers arrived at her house on Christmas day due to a fake “swatting” incident.
Greene (R-Ga.) took to X, the social media platform formerly known as Twitter, to share that this was the 8th time she had experienced a swatting incident.
“I was just swatted. This is like the 8th time,” Greene posted. “I spent Christmas with my family here. My local police are the greatest and shouldn’t have to deal with this. I appreciate them so much, and my family and I are in joyous spirits celebrating the birth of our savior, Jesus Christ.”
The act of “swatting” involves making false emergency calls to prompt law enforcement to raid someone’s home.
This malicious practice has targeted numerous conservatives in the past.
Activist Jack Posobiec shared that his parents were also victims of swatting on Saturday.
In August 2022, Greene had previously reported a false shooting at her home in Floyd County, Georgia, orchestrated through a computer-generated voice.

How can individuals support law enforcement officers and report suspicious activity to prevent swatting incidents
Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene Reveals Another Swatting Incident
Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene (MTG) recently took to social media to share that she had experienced yet another swatting incident. Swatting is a malicious practice that involves making false emergency calls in order to prompt law enforcement to raid someone’s home. This incident occurred on Christmas day, with police officers arriving at MTG’s house in response to a fake swatting report.
According to MTG, this is the eighth time she has experienced a swatting incident. In a post on X, the former Twitter platform, she expressed her frustration and gratitude towards the local police who had to deal with this false alarm on a holiday. She wrote, ”I was just swatted. This is like the 8th time…My local police are the greatest and shouldn’t have to deal with this. I appreciate them so much, and my family and I are in joyous spirits celebrating the birth of our savior, Jesus Christ.”
This is not an isolated incident as swatting has targeted numerous conservatives in the past. Activist Jack Posobiec also shared that his parents were victims of swatting just a few days before MTG’s incident.
Unfortunately, this is not the first time MTG has been a victim of false reports. In August 2022, she reported a false shooting at her home in Floyd County, Georgia, which was orchestrated through a computer-generated voice.
Swatting incidents not only put innocent individuals and their families in danger but also waste valuable time and resources of law enforcement. It is a serious crime that should be taken seriously and those responsible should be held accountable.
We must condemn such malicious actions and work towards preventing further occurrences of swatting. Law enforcement agencies and technology companies should collaborate to develop stricter protocols and systems to verify emergency calls and prevent false reports.
In the meantime, individuals should remain vigilant and report any suspicious activity to the authorities. It is crucial to support our law enforcement officers who work tirelessly to protect our communities, even during holidays.
As for MTG, we hope that she and her family can find solace in knowing that they have the support of their community and the gratitude of many who appreciate their service to the country. Swatting should never overshadow the joyous celebrations of the holiday season, and it is important that we stand together against such nefarious acts.
