Green did not “leave” the chamber

Rep. Al Green (D-Texas) just heckled Trump, standing up, shaking his cane at him and telling him, “You don’t have a mandate!” Republicans almost immediately drowned him out with “USA, USA, USA” chants. Green has left the chamber.

WaPo has lost interest in facts. Green must have been exercising his "personal liberty" since that idea is underserved in the marketplace.

And the back and forth of the two party system continues to fail it's constituents.

They want him to win because they like him.

Dems should laugh at him! Nothing would piss him off more 🤣🤣🤣

blueskynotx24.bsky.social•1 day ago

because the USA chant (STOLLEN FROM OUR VICTORY OVER THE USSR in lake Placid - weird right) is now the way to say.. you are not American.

He should have let them remove him and every single democrat should have followed!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Greens tactics will not work! Dems need 2 articulate a plan other than harassment! Dems lost fight on immigration b/c of drugs, crime, & tax/benefit fraud! Time 2 have an immigration plan that deals w/criminals, VISAlabor needs & secures border & ends tax/benefit fraud & sanctuary city obstruction!

lucyburns.bsky.social•1 day ago

Yes, and the loud Republican chants that drowned him out were within decorum rules? 50+ Rs standing? Lots of Rs talking when he wasn’t? A sham and shame. Trump would fold first sentence in The House of Commons. Glad Rep. Green stayed inside, but sad how our House was turned into a 1955 Alabama bus.

You still subscribe to this sh*t?

philmccrackin.bsky.social•1 day ago

So Jeffries didn't want anyone to boo, or disturb tRUmp in any way?

F Jeffries.

Give him the Chuck Schumer Award for ineffective opposition to fascism and get new leadership who knows how to fight this rapid destruction of our government.

Green is the only one who earned any fucking respect tonight. Feckless efforts of color coordination and holding "false" signs.

So MTG & Bobo can interrupt Biden and Joe Walsh can scream "You lie" to Obams. That's okay??

tedhoffman.bsky.social•1 day ago

Gaetz et. al. crashed the SCIF and live broadcast themselves there, and Democrats did *nothing* to punish them.

Draw your own conclusions accordingly.

jaystu.bsky.social•1 day ago

Fuck the Republicans. SHAME ON THE DEMOCRATS FOR NOT ALL GETTING UP AND LEAVING - and saying loudly and clearly FUCK YOU TRUMP AND VANCE.

Thank you. I’m changing my dem registration to independent tomorrow. I cannot be associated w such pathetic asswipes.

We need more people like Green. This is not normal and they should not maintain any decorum.

fuck you washington post, he was forced to leave & escorted out

aidansquiffy.bsky.social•1 day ago

The Dems should have taken turns disrupting the speech. Make sure they get thrown out 1 by 1, every one making a scene and a delay as they leave. Do it every sentence, never let him get into a flow.

spoonsbutler.bsky.social•1 day ago

Yes, he was kicked out. I am astounded by our press!

bashingon.bsky.social•1 day ago

A pity he was there at all. The fool's just handed Trump & his apologists a perfect opportunity to deflect from their own fuckery. Democratic leaders told their colleagues to not do that, but something something herding cats.

Also @washingtonpost.com EABOD for your bullshit framing.

I noticed that too, WaPo.

goulash-guy.bsky.social•1 day ago

What is the bloody point of sitting there like mannequins. Maybe that's considered effective or sufficient in normal times. But goddam, your democracy is lost! And you're sitting on your hands except to quietly hold up ping-pong paddles with cheap slogans on them. Decorum above all else, I guess.

In North Korea all the people have to praise and applaud Kim Jong Un and are punished if they don't do it well enough. That was what I thought about tonight's display by the Republicans. It was OTT.

Correct, he was in fact escorted out.

Why did they even show up?😠

gr8philly.bsky.social•1 day ago

Shouting down a black elected representative and getting him thrown out is so WHITE SUPREMACY, that we should all WTFU.

bethbug74.bsky.social•1 day ago

He LEFT?!

This is the caliber of the WP’s “reporting,” now that the boss baby openly works for the king, is it?

The passive language I’ve read lately is unreal. Like Zelenskyy “left”

ksmith9105.bsky.social•1 day ago

Repeating every lie from his campaign and more from his Doge team. I can’t even stand to listen to thus drivel. I’m really surprised Dems have remained do quiet.

He doesn't have a mandate.

The Sargeant at arms is escorting a BLACK Congressman out of the Chamber is the worst look of any Presidential speech since Andrew Jackson

MTG wasn't removed when she yelled out during one of President Biden's State of the Union speeches. Maybe Al's cane waving tonight with the yelling was more aggressive 🤢

corgiboyhenry107.bsky.social•1 day ago

They all need to walk out now. Playing into drump’s hands.
