Two years before Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga) chased Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez though the halls of Congress accusing her of supporting “terrorists,” she harassed the New York Democrat and her staff during a visit to the Capitol in 2019.
In a since-deleted livestream saved by CNN’s KFile, Greene was seen telling her audience that she was on her way to visit “crazy eyes. Crazy eyes. Nutty. Cortez.”
When Greene and her associates got to AOC’s door and saw that it was closed, she started screaming abuse through the mailbox slot urging her to come out and mocked her staff for keeping the door close.
“Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, I’m an American citizen. I pay your salary through the taxes that you collect for me through the IRS because I’m a taxpaying citizen of the United States,” Greene says.
“So you need to stop being a baby and stop locking your door and come out and face the American citizens that you serve,” she added. “If you want to be a big girl, you need to get rid of your diaper and come out and be able to talk to the American citizens. Instead of having to use a flap, a little flap. Sad.”
Her companions also got in on the action. “You can’t stay in there forever. Come out and play,” one said through the mailbox slot.
Greene was not elected to Congress at the time and was reportedly at the Capitol to deliver a petition to House Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s office which seeks to impeach Pelosi for treason. Among those who accompanied Greene on her visit was Anthony Aguero, a man who later stormed the Capitol on Jan. 6.
