Marjorie Taylor Greene, as of earlier this month, is no longer a member of Congress, having resigned after her well-publicized break with Donald Trump. But that doesn’t mean she’s done feuding with the president.

This week, following the killing of Alex Pretti in Minnesota, Greene criticized the shooting in an X post.

While making clear that she continues to believe in “border security and deporting criminal illegal aliens and I support law enforcement,” Greene reiterated her support of the Second Amendment, as well as the First and Fourth.

“Legally carrying a firearm is not the same as brandishing a firearm. I support American’s 1st and 4th Amendment rights. There is nothing wrong with legally peacefully protesting and videoing,” she said.

She also attacked the shooting while defending the January 6 offenders. “We lost our minds when we watched Biden’s FBI track down and aggressively carry out home invasions and arrest on peaceful J6’ers who walked in the Capitol through open doors.”

“Imagine if one of our MAGA independent journalists or even just a MAGA supporter stood in the street outside a J6’ers house while Biden’s FBI carried out a law enforcement operation, home invasion, and arrest. Then Biden’s FBI goes to the MAGA guy videoing it all and shoves a woman with him to the ground and sprays them with bear spray then throws the MAGA guy to the ground as MAGA guy was trying to help the woman off the ground. Then Biden’s FBI beats MAGA guy on the ground, disarms MAGA guy, and then shoots him dead. What would have been our reaction?,” she asked.

She also agreed with a post from another current Republican House member who is willing to criticize Donald Trump, Rep. Thomas Massie (R-KY):
