New details “paint an even more disturbing picture of what took place that night.” Derrick Van Orden continues to get heat for accosting high school Senate pages in the U.S. Capitol last week and refusing to apologize, leading him to hide from Wisconsinites and cancel an in-district event with constituents. First, he downplayed the incident in a chaotic interview, joking […]

After berating high school Senate pages in the U.S. Capitol earlier this week, extremist Derrick Van Orden’s profane outburst is making local and national headlines. Van Orden still refuses to apologize, claiming the teens’ innocent actions were “disrespectful” to the grounds – though that didn’t stop him from storming the Capitol on January 6th. After losing his temper and […]

Mace is the embodiment of Republican hypocrisy and their attacks on reproductive freedom Time and time again, Nancy Mace has gone on the record chastising her own party for needing to “read the room” on abortion restrictions.

Los Angeles Times: “Calvert, who did not respond to multiple interview requests for this story, has a history of voting against LGBTQ+ rights.” As homophobic Rep.

Derrick Van Orden’s temper was on full display last night as he screamed and cursed out Senate pages for taking photos in the U.S. Capitol.

This is hardly Van Orden’s […]

When Mike Lawler voted to protect his criminally-indicted colleague instead of expelling him, he defended his cowardly inaction with false arguments, claiming that the Ethics Committee “make a swift determination on this, that can satisfy the entire body of Congress.” Well – it’s been more than 60 days and Rep. Santos is still a member of Congress thanks to Lawler.  It’s clear […]

When Nick Lalota voted to protect his criminally-indicted colleague instead of expelling him, he defended his cowardly inaction with false arguments. LaLota rationalized his terrible vote by saying, “we expect a result within 60 days and for the terrible liar to be gone, by resignation or expulsion, before August recess.” Well – it’s been more than 60 days and August recess […]

When Anthony D’Esposito voted to protect his criminally-indicted colleague instead of expelling him, he defended his cowardly inaction with false arguments, claiming that “this is the quickest way of ridding the House of Representatives of this scourge on government.” Well – it’s been more than 60 days and Rep.

When Republicans voted to protect their criminally-indicted colleague instead of expelling him, they defended their cowardly inaction with false arguments like Rep. Anthony D’Esposito’s claim that “this is the quickest way of ridding the House of Representatives of this scourge on government.” As if that wasn’t enough of a lie, their fellow vulnerable Long Island Rep. Nick LaLota rationalized their vote by saying, […]
