Biggs, who leads the conservative House Freedom Caucus, has come under scrutiny for his social media and comments that some say helped incite the Jan. 6 rampage in which supporters of former President Donald Trump attacked police and overran the U.S. Capitol as Congress was certifying the results of the 2020 presidential election. A watchdog group named Campaign for Accountability filed a request with the Office of Congressional Ethics to investigate Biggs and Rep. Paul Gosar, R-Ariz., who has faced similar allegations. Biggs denies that he did anything to incite the riot. 2

- Insurrection Planning: Paul Gosar
Paul Gosar: MTG [Marjorie Taylor-Greene] In Lifts – An insurrection-planning, white-nationalist-collaborating congressman remains uncensored and unchallenged. Why?
“A congressman plotted with domestic terrorists to plan the deadly January 6 “Stop the Steal” rally with the stated purpose of putting “maximum pressure” on Congress to vote to overturn the election.
This same member of Congress spoke at a gathering put on by avowed white nationalists that was explicitly designed as a counter to the weak-tea MAGA stuff at CPAC. Previously, this member said that George Soros planned the Charlottesville alt-right rally as a false flag to hurt Donald Trump. He proposed that Joe Biden was planning to fake a disease in order to allow Kamala Harris to take over the presidency. He also claimed (repeatedly) that the Dominion Voting Systems algorithm rigged the election.
We’re not talking about one of the newly minted, Q-Anon friendly, MAGA representatives.
We’re talking about Arizona’s Paul Gosar: MTG in lifts.” 3
