Yes!! Rep Larson (D-CT) on the House Committee to Discuss DOGE Oversight

I apologize if this has already been posted, but Rep Largon (D-CT) just ripped the GOP a new one during the House Committee to Discuss DOGE Oversight.

Here's short clip from bsky:

Everyone should be screaming like this! More of this, now please!

Of course he doesn't want that... because showing his claims based on his total ignorance of how it works would be embarrassing to him and prove how much he deserves to get arrested and charged (and tried), and then pardonned?

For him to give this speech is amazing, the younger members should stand up and do the same.

I have epilepsy and, to me, it looked like Rep John Larson experienced a complex partial seizure. That's exactly what they look like, sort of stopping and staring into space and sometimes smacking of lips. You can see him sort of move his tongue inside of his mouth and move his lips.

It's not uncommon to have a breakthrough seizure even if on medication. Especially if switched to a generic since the amount of active ingredient is questionable. That is why I buy brand name through an online Canadian pharmacy.

EDIT: I just saw that Rep. John Larson already spoke on this and confirmed it was a complex partial seizure. I didn't realize he'd already made a statement.

Very simliar. I think petit mal is the "old" name and is now more commonly referred to as complex partial.

I said I talked to my 2 Sens, and even know I'm not from Con I 'm your neighbor in NY and I have relatives there in Con. (I do -practically life long ones 80+ yrs).

I know they mostly pay attention to their constituents, but I can't believe they wouldn't be heartened by positive feedback from others on such weghty issues. I m h o.

Though subtle, I sensed some sarcasm especially when he said "due to his ability to accumulate wealth" (I'm paraphrasing).
