Marjorie Taylor Greene is questioning the details of the assassination attempt against President Donald Trump, saying he, “of all people,” should be “leading the charge” to find out “the truth” about the shooting.

The former congresswoman reposted a social media post on Saturday from Trisha Hope, a self-described “J6 activist,” who wrote that the details surrounding the July 2024 assassination attempt at a Trump rally in Pennsylvania, including the perfectly-timed photo of Trump and Trump’s refusal to talk at length about it, are weird.

Hope added that Corey Comperatore, who was the only person killed during the assassination attempt when he was shielding his wife and daughter, was killed to be “used in the plot,” otherwise people would think the shooting was a hoax.

“Extremely important post worth the read and consideration,” Green wrote Saturday on X. “Corey Comperatore’s family deserves to know the truth about Matthew Crooks and what happened in Butler on July 13, 2024. President Trump, of all people, should be leading the charge. Why isn’t he? That’s the question.”

In a follow-up post, Green clarified she doesn’t believe the assassination attempt was a hoax, but she is wondering why Trump won’t release information about the shooter.

Green’s posts come after Wired published an article laying out how many Trump supporters are now convinced the assassination attempt was a hoax. Comedian Tom Dillon and right-wing pundits Tucker Carlson, Emerald Robinson and Candace Owens are just some of the MAGA people who have promoted conspiracy theories that the shooting isn’t what it seems.

Rep. Mike Kelly (R-Pa.) and Rep. Pat Fallon (R-Texas) claimed late last year that the FBI “stonewalled” the House investigation into the shooting. The final FBI report on the shooting found that the shooter acted alone.

Trump has been relatively tight-lipped about that day, telling BBC in 2025 that he doesn’t like “dwelling” on it. At the 2024 Republican National Convention, Trump wore a bandage on his ear that was grazed by the bullet, and shortly after he was elected for his second term, the White House replaced a portrait of Barack Obama with a painting of the famous photograph taken moments after the shooting of Trump’s raised fist.
