In an interview with NBC News, she says, “They’re making fun of my skin color. They’re calling me an insurrection Barbie.” She continued, “And so, that is the epitome of a scapegoat. Just like they did that to the Jews in Germany. Those were scapegoats. And I believe people who are Caucasian are being turned into evil in front of the media.”
However, Ryan has since then claimed to be a scapegoat for the insurrection and has changed the bio on her Twitter profile to a relatively defensive statement that reads: “#AmericanPatriot Charged with Parading, Picketing & Protesting in DC on January 6th. Sentenced to 60 days prison for 2 mins 8 sec in doorway.”
In a tweet on March 26, Ryan responded to another user by writing: “Sorry I have blonde hair, white skin, a great job, a great future, and I’m not going to jail. Sorry to rain on your hater parade. I did nothing wrong.”
