January 1, Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene Exposes Potentially Classified Information: ‘People Deserve to Know’
ON THIS DAY IN HISTORY…
432: Saint Patrick, aged about 16, is captured by Irish pirates from his home in Great Britain and taken as a slave to Ireland (traditional date).
Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) verbally disclosed classified information during a congressional hearing, saying that “people deserve to know.”
During a U.S. House of Representatives Homeland Security Committee hearing earlier this week, Greene addressed a question to U.S. Border Patrol Chief Raul Ortiz.
“Chief Ortiz, are you aware that there was an explosive device found by Border Patrol agents on January 17th in an area called No Man’s Land, and there’s surveillance of who put it there?” Greene asked. “And guess what? It wasn’t Americans; it was cartels. Are you aware of that?”
Ortiz refused to elaborate on his knowledge of the alleged incident, indicating that any such information would be considered confidential.
“I will tell you that some of this information that I receive, I receive in a confidential [sensitive compartmented information facility (SCIF)], so I’m going to be a little hesitant of briefing what I know and what I don’t know with respect to some of those, an event like that,” he told Greene.
Despite Ortiz’s hesitancy, the congresswoman pressed on.
“I understand, Chief Ortiz, but I’m not going to be confidential because I think people deserve to know,” Greene said. “Our Border Patrol agents should not be in those type of conditions where they are at risk of being blown to pieces by the cartels, who, by the way, are criminals, and they should be treated as such.”
“As a matter of fact, I’ve co-sponsored legislation to declare war on the cartels because they are definitely declaring war on us, the American people, and our Border Patrol agents, and I’ve had enough of it, and I know Americans have had enough of it,” she added.

I would like to know how the cartel’s leaving “explosive devices” in No Man’s Land could be considered “confidential material when it has been a known fact by anyone who lives or has lived near the Southern Border of the United States for the past 40+ years. This is no big secret to the public sector of this country, folks, as we all know that the cartels play dirty pool and will do anything to protect their profit margins. Marjorie Taylor-Greene is right, the public has a right to know what is already obvious!
