Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene testifies she doesn't remember her actions leading up to January 6

Republican Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene of Georgia is testifying Friday during a hearing where challengers are seeking her disqualification as a candidate for reelection -- frequently saying she doesn't remember many key events or even her own actions in the weeks before January 6, 2021.

The potentially precedent-setting hearing in an Atlanta courtroom is aimed at determining whether the Georgia congresswoman is constitutionally barred from running for reelection because of her role in the January 6 insurrection. Greene is testifying as a witness during the marathon hearing -- making her the first lawmaker to testify under oath about their involvement in the attack on the US Capitol.

The challengers repeatedly highlighted how Greene had posted messages and videos on social media, in the run-up to January 6, that used strident rhetoric. According to the challengers, these posts helped fuel the attack on the Capitol and therefore, she aided the insurrection.

Greene said she didn't remember if she had ever spoken with any GOP lawmakers or White House officials about the potential for violence on January 6. She also said she didn't recall if she herself had posted a handful of tweets that appeared on her account, where she claimed the 2020 election was illegitimate.

And she said she didn't remember saying that she opposed the peaceful transfer of power to Joe Biden -- right before lawyers for the challengers played a video of her saying that.

When asked about the Proud Boys, a right-wing extremist group with dozens of members who stormed the US Capitol, Greene said she didn't know much about them. When asked if they are an extremist organization, she said: "I've heard about them. I don't know what they do. I don't know much about the Proud Boys."
