Dumb ass should be charged with reckless endangerment and all other applicable ofences

"

Alawmaker was reportedly caught on camera pulling a fire alarm in the Cannon House Office Building on Saturday as a means to delay a continuing resolution vote for funding the U.S.

Olivia Beavers, Politico Congress reporter, quoted multiple sources on the issue of who pulled the fire alarm.

"Rep. Jamaal Bowman (D-NY) was caught on camera pulling the Cannon fire alarm ahead of this motion to adjourn vote as Dems tried to delay the CR vote, multiple sources tell me," she said on Saturday. "We have reached out to him for comment - we haven't viewed footage ourselves."

Beavers then added, "There was an alert to Capitol police officers to locate him, I'm told."

 
 

 

The news was also reported by Chad Pergram, the Senior Congressional Correspondent for Fox News.

"Dem NY Rep Jamaal Bowman pulled fire alarm in Cannon Building, forcing evacuation as Dems tried to buy more time to read new CR. USCP criminal investigation unit is questioning Bowman," he wrote in a post on social media.

False.

Any and all idiots are discussed here.

Most of us don't care which side is being an idiot, before calling it out.

Two felony acts.  First one, pulling the fire alarm without a legal cause.  Second one, interrupting a government proceeding.

 

He should be removed from his seat and expelled from the House, but I would be very surprised if enough Democrats joined with Republicans to meet the 2/3 threshold required.

While there are certainly idiots on both sides of the aisle, I reckon one Party has a larger quantity. 
 

 

I agree with that statement. I just don't think we likely agree on what side that is. My point was is that most of you guys going back to the Trump thread? Don't at all call out liberals or Democrats. Actually just skim over it.

Dems and Liberal Dems are certainly fair game if they’re behaving like idiots. 
 

No argument there. 
 

However, and again, one Party has more idiots than the other.

While we are talking about idiots…Trumps latest bright idea for fires in California is to keep the forests damp. He says there is lots of water for this to the north. He says he could get it there fast. 
Hope he doesn’t mean Canada. 

Trump says absolutely crazy things but he knows his supporters are crazy enough to believe him. 
remember the tapes of Trump being interviewed and he was talking about his being a star got women so impressed they let him fondle them? That’s how this guy thinks. He thinks people will give in to his crazy thoughts. He’s one sick MOFU.

George Santos is still a member of congress, let that sink in. But both sides are the same amirite?

And who's the Democrat that's being charged with some serious crimes? See you're one of the ones I'm talking about. You'll defend that sort of behavior only to criticize a republican. You've done this time and time again with liberals in Canada and Democrats in the US. Conversations with folks like you are absolutely pointless because you will always make excuses for the left-wing parties rather than admit their wrongdoing. You are correct, Santos probably shouldn't be in congress, but he's not the only corrupt politician far from it.

Did he seriously say this? Like I'm confused. Are water bombers going to fly around all day long to keep things damp lol

Agreed. Along with George Santos. Gotta apply this to both sides of the aisle here.

 

What's crazier to me is the implications they're voting on a bill without the time to read it which precipitated this stunt. Along with the fact a 90 yr old was casting votes up to her death it's all messed up.

Comparing a mod to hitler and you still think it's a mystery?

I don't know It seems like a few of you guys on the left Like to call everybody Nazis. I wonder if you've ever upvoted heffy when he uses that language? Anyway, I have no interest and continuing any further discussion with you. I get your point of view. Conservatives will ruin the whole world and only a socialist utopia will save us. Cheers
