Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.) is hoping to appeal to Republican lawmakers to take pity on Capitol rioters facing charges for their involvement in the U.S. Capitol insurrection.

According to HuffPost, Greene’s remarks came when she asked top-ranking Republican lawmaker Rep. Steve Scalise (R-La.) if he would support a possible probe into House Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s leadership of the House Select Committee designated to investigate the Capitol riots.

“I’d asked him if he would support investigations into Nancy Pelosi’s handling of security at the Capitol on Jan. 6,” Greene said responding to a question from the news outlet. “I also asked him if he would support investigations into the treatment of pretrial January 6 defendants.”
