Marjorie Taylor Greene has shared a death threat saying she would be shot in the head and skinned sent before her house was swatted on Christmas Day.

The Georgia Republican posted a screenshot of the vile message on her X account from a man claiming he wanted to make a ‘parasol’ out of her skin, in reference to the serial killer Ed Gein.

Known as the ‘Butcher of Planfield’, Gein killed two women and was a grave robber who made clothing out of body parts.

The 49-year-old politician also said the man threatened to ‘smash’ the head of her TV broadcaster boyfriend Brian Glenn ‘on a curb’.

The lawmaker also stated the Capitol Police had investigated the man’s threats, but didn’t arrest him.

She shared a screenshot of an email she received from investigators, and said they ‘simply called’ the suspect.

‘The outright absurdity of this email response and the fact that they have not arrested this guy is shocking, thankfully I’m a gun owner. 

Greene posted the threat hours after she revealed she was swatted for ‘like the eighth time’ on December 25 while her family was enjoying festivities inside. 

‘I was just swatted. This is like the 8th time. On Christmas with my family here,’ MTG wrote on X, formerly known as Twitter. 

‘My local police are the GREATEST and shouldn’t have to deal with this. I appreciate them so much and my family and I are in joyous spirits celebrating the birth of our savior Jesus Christ!’

The Congresswoman did not elaborate on the nature of the threats but she has been targeted previously by what her office described as ‘political attacks’.  

Greene was swatted twice in August this year. On August 23, the Rome Police Department said officers ‘responded to a 911 call reference to a subject being shot multiple times at an address within the city limits.’ 

According to the police report, the caller said a man had been shot at MTG’s home and that a woman and children could still be inside. 

When cops turned up at her home, she assured them there was no issue and the call was determined to be a swatting incident. 

The police report went on to say officers ‘received a second call from the suspect who was using a computer generated voice stating that he/she was upset about Mrs. Greene’s political view on transgender youth rights.’

The next day, her home was targeted again by a prank caller who told cops they had gunned down her family and threatened to kill any officers who came to the door. 

MTG thanked her local police department in a tweet about the incident. ‘Last night, I was swatted just after 1 am.

‘I can’t express enough gratitude to my local law enforcement here in Rome, Floyd County. More details to come.’

Her office confirmed that a ‘political attack’ took place on Greene’s home in a statement to DailyMail.com.

The act of ‘swatting’ generally entails making a prank call to emergency services to get law enforcement to descend on somebody’s home.

Greene led GOP criticism of federal law enforcement ever since the FBI’s unannounced search of Trump’s Mar-a-Lago estate in Florida early August.

In the early hours of August 8, the FBI executed a search warrant on the Palm Beach mansion in an operation linked to classified documents sought by the National Archives.

Trump’s allies like Greene and GOP Conference Chair Rep. Elise Stefanik decried the raid as a weaponization of the Justice Department and have demanded consequences for Attorney General Merrick Garland and FBI Director Christopher Wray.

It’s prompted criticism from other Republicans who cite federal warnings of an increased wave of violent threats against federal law enforcement workers in the FBI raid’s fallout.

She was also swatted in October 2022 ‘for the sixth time’. MTG said at the time that the callers ‘want to have their victim murdered by police’. 

‘But it is also a giant abuse of police resources and time, which is another reason it is a serious crime,’ she said.
