Dem Rep who interrupted Trump’s address to Congress has no regrets
Rep. Al Green said that “if circumstances remain the same, I would have to do it again.”
Summary
Rep. Al Green (D-TX) stands by his decision to interrupt Trump's joint address to Congress, stating "I would have to do it again" despite facing censure.
Green protested proposed Medicaid cuts, warning "people will suffer and die" if the program is cut.
Fellow Democrats joined him in singing "We Shall Overcome" during the censure reading. Green called his actions a "peaceful protest" against presidential "incivility."
Critics note apparent double standards, as Republicans like MTG previously interrupted Biden without similar consequences. Rep. Boebert's comment about Green "shaking his pimp cane" has been criticized for racial overtones.

Damn right. He shouldn't. Don't forget about these scabs

I've been calling every day to let them know they should be ashamed. Thinking I can work remote a couple of hours outside his office next week, what should be on my sign?
Make an auction paddle that says "You're useless."
Well, there’s little chance he’ll feel any shame, so there’s no point in working that angle. How about a “Clippy” approach:
- “We notice you’re working to dismantle the US government. Are you sure your voters support you in this?”.
…or… - “We notice you’re working to dismantle the US government. Who the f**k thought that was a good idea?”
Yeah clippy references. Very topical and modern. Hard hitting. Very politically motivating
OK…. Let us all see you do better.
"I'd just like to know if your constituency has approved of you dismantling our government for a fascist regime. I am sure your reelection might survive this decision, but that is ultimately up to the people you are making unhappy."
"would Luigi approve?"
- “We notice you’re working to dismantle the US government. Are you sure your voters support you in this?”.
NYC Democrats truly are a breed of their own. Fuck em.
Except nobody on this list represents nyc
No just literally the next district over. My bad. 😐
