    Noem not knowing a United States Senator is the most sensible part of this.

    Good luck with that - history says otherwise and Trump is historically unpopular as president.

    Your president is a literal felon, yet you have the gall to talk about “law and order.” Lmao, get the hell out of here.

    There is an appropriate manner and time for this senator to submit his questions to Noem. What he (they?) did was wholly inappropriate and unacceptable. There a plethora of terms to describe how this wingnut acted ….. but “wanker prat” works.

    Lawfare at its best. Good job of accepting hatred that the majority of Americans rejected in the last election.

    Trump was framed by the democrats and tried/convicted in kangaroo courts like what you have in third world countries and China/Russia. Hate is your job, not mine.

    Sort of like this evil troll? No performance there.

    No, he is not a normal citizen. The Secret Service morons were lucky that he was not traveling with Capitol Police protection for some reason or there would have been a shoot out in that room. Any federal agent who lays hands on a sitting United States Senator for any reason should be detained immediately by the Capitol Police.

    Wait....you people elected a president who traveled with Epstein and who bought a beauty pageant for under age women so he could sit in the dressing room and watch (his words, not mine). Are you serious right now???

    You couldn't accept the truth even if it bit you on your backside. Trump being unpopular is your thing and wrong.

    Capitol police in LA is too funny to even respond to.

    “Lawfare.” Still a felon, those 34 felonies didn’t go away. Also, Trump didn’t even get 50% of the vote, he isn’t the majority, but continue to pretend that he is. As long as Trump is in office you have no moral high ground on law and order with your party, especially when the felon and his party of unqualified nitwits continue to break the law daily and ignore the courts.

    Now we're getting into something meaningful. Clearly performative on the part of all parties today, but just an awful awful precedent.

    It's sad that that there are those on both sides gleeful about this but we should all be embarrassed and want this sort of stuff to stop immediately before it leads to something far worse.

    I agree that it was probably not good etiquette , but fwiw he said that he and his staff had previously asked questions of Noem and the administration and had not gotten any significant responses. So, I'm guessing he acted out of frustration.

    Of course you don't have to believe him. I certainly don't believe that Noem would have answered any of his questions had he waited till she was done with her speech justifying the administration actions. .

    That flop was enough to make any NBA player blush. Better acting at 3rd grade spring play
