The demands for expulsion come in response to a Rolling Stone report where two witnesses revealed that "multiple members of Congress were intimately involved in planning both Trump’s efforts to overturn his election loss and the Jan. 6 events that turned violent."
Which Representatives Were Reportedly Involved in Insurrection?
The representatives listed in the report include:
* Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA)
* Mo Brooks (R-AK)
* Lauren Boebert (R-CO)
* Madison Cawthorn (R-NC)
* Louie Gohmert (R-TX)
* Paul Gosar (R-AZ)
* Andy Biggs (R-AZ).
"January 6 was just a riot at the Capitol and if you think about what our Declaration of Independence says, it says to overthrow tyrants," Greene said in an appearance on Steve Bannon's podcast Tuesday.
