Greene said she realized that she has participated in or supported heated rhetoric that has resulted in threats toward others, a point of reflection for her.

She may have repented or she may be positioning herself for a future elected political position post Trump. Time will tell and she should be given a chance to prove her intentions.

On Monday morning, police in Rome, Georgia, where Greene lives, received a pair of e-mails "in reference to the threat of Assassination to Marjorie Taylor Greene's son," according to an incident report obtained by NBC News.

The threats against the congresswoman and her family come as an Indiana state senator was swatted at his home on Sunday just hours after Trump criticized him and other Republican lawmakers for not moving forward with redrawing the state's congressional map ahead of next year's elections.

This violent left wing rhetoric has to stop.

GOP sends 'menacing texts' to voters ordering them to un-sign petition opposing gerrymandering: report

Missouri is one of a handful of Republican-controlled states that redrew their maps in a demand from Trump. However, voting rights activists responded by gathering signatures for a ballot measure to repeal it. If that measure qualifies, the altered map is automatically suspended until and unless voters approve it.

The text, paid for by the Republican National Committee, stated, “Missouri Secretary of State Denny Hoskins has declared TENS OF THOUSANDS of petition signatures IMPROPERLY COLLECTED. Did you accidentally sign this? Text back or call 417-612-9044 to withdraw your signature before it’s too late.”

"Don't Give up the Ship"

He's actually right, but it's not the battle he thinks it is. The real battle is to prevent the church from being overrun with the heresy of placing political power and influence over the gospel. You can be both conservative and denounce the violent and dehumanizing rhetoric sweeping through Republican politics - and liberal Christians can do the same when it occurs from Democrats. Unfortunately, Christians are choosing to remain silent on that topic even while often repeating the most opposed-to-scripture talking points of their political idols.

The true Church, which is the actual body of Christ, the Israel of God, and the Temple made without hands, has no part in this conflict, our battles are not with flesh and blood.

The godless entity passing itself off as "the church" was overrun quite some time ago.
