Rep. Sean Patrick Maloney (D-N.Y.) said Thursday that Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.) was "gleeful" as supporters of former President Donald Trump breached the U.S. Capitol on January 6.

Maloney made the remarks during an interview on the latest edition of MSNBC's Deadline: White House. The congressman said he noticed unusual behavior from Greene and her staff after being evacuated from the Capitol, where lawmakers had gathered to certify President Joe Biden's 2020 election win during a joint session of Congress, to an "undisclosed location" once the insurrection began.

"Look, I was there," said Maloney. "I was on the House floor. I was in that undisclosed location with a bunch of Republicans who were... one in particular, who was gleeful at what was transpiring outside. It took me a minute to understand why she was having such a good time. But I saw it, I saw it with her staff who caught up with her. They were excited about what was going on."

"They had been at the White House, I believe, the day before—talking about what was going to happen," he added. "I mean, it's not really a mystery when [Rep.] Mo Brooks is down at the rally, whipping up the crowd and pointing them towards the capitol, I believe, with a bulletproof vest on... a lot of this is right out there in the open."

3. Wasn't she seen giving the rioters guided tours the day before?

She didn’t appear overly surprised at anything that transpired that day—except maybe that despite everything, Congress ended up doing its job after all. THAT probably came as a shock to her.
