Are you ready to fight these MAGA assholes? out Rep. Sean Patrick Maloney (D-NY) said to former NFL linebacker and Rep. Colin Allred (D-TX) as a mob of Trump supporters burst in to the Capitol, carrying weapons and explosives and chanting for the death of Mike Pence.
Allred turned to Maloney and replied: Lets go.
Maloney talked to the New York Daily News about what it was like to be in the Capitol as conservatives and white nationalists attempted to violently force Congress to stop certifying the 2020 presidential election because their preferred candidate didnt win.
At first Maloney said that the rioters were getting into the building and we thought they would be inside the chamber at any moment.
He heard tear gas canisters being used outside the chamber. We were ready for a fight. I think it was only later that we realized how many of them there were.
