Democratic lawmakers on the House Foreign Affairs Committee are growing frustrated with chair Rep. Brian Mast (R-FL) over his leadership including barely-veiled personal jabs and other provocations and are already "vowing they won't forget" if they reclaim the majority in the midterms, Punchbowl News reported Friday.
During a recent hearing in the committee attended by Secretary of State Marco Rubio, Mast cut off Rep. Gregory Meeks (D-NY), the top Democrat on the committee, during his opening statement. Back in March, Mast chastised Meeks over his attendance after the New York Democrat pushed to subpoena Trump administration officials regarding the U.S. war against Iran.
Regarding his opening statement being cut short, Meeks said it was disrespectful of Mast, Punchbowl News reported. Meeks also issued a vague warning to the Florida Republican, who once controversially appeared on Capitol Hill wearing an Israel Defense Forces uniform.
Its something I wont forget when I become chair, Meeks said.

(4,730 posts)IMHO What he won't forget is how republicans change the rules from when they are in the majority to when Dems are in the majority. The same rules need to apply to all parties no matter who is in power.
That's not revenge.
