Heated confrontation between House members amid debate over Pennsylvania electoral vote count

Rep. Conor Lamb, D-Pa., used his five minutes to give an impassioned speech during the debate over the Electoral College votes from Pennsylvania. "That attack today, it didn't materialize out of nowhere. It was inspired by lies," he continued."The members who are repeating those lies should be ashamed of themselves. Their constituents should be ashamed of them."

"The gentleman said there were lies on this floor today, looking over this direction. I ask that those words be taken down," Griffiths said to House Speaker Nancy Pelosi regarding Lamb's speech.

Seems related. TrumpLies Trumpaganda ImpeachTrump

Adam Kinzinger is the mitt Romney of BETO.

Finally, someone in the Republican Party, that isn't corrupt, will do what is right, by all ppl, democrats and republicans! A good guy

VP it’s tie to stand up and do what is right for the country

dole_in Let’s see how this goes.

GMA We the people are not the problem, it is the Republicans and Democrats who are at odds with each other! They have the power to make change within themselves to work together. They use the American People as their puppets to do their dirty work! Enough!

It must be done now... I AM sure.. he is using multiple FB, twitter accounts and many others to create a mayhem on inauguration day.. revolution. FB/ Twitter you need to dig really dig to find these accounts and people. Do it before it is too late

this is what US media always said to Hongkong, beautiful view.

So what, he didnt resign his cheif of staff job

Thank you for being our voice

TheView That’s hillarious, now what about China Joes consequences, Hillary, Obama ?

Not now...but right fckn now!

SenSchumer put it to a vote now!!!! Mr sen maj leader elect!

HELL YES, BUT ACT NOW!!! THAT WOULD BE THE ONLY THING THAT WOULD RE-STATE DEMOCRACY IN THIS COUNTRY!

Is there other than 25th amendment. maybe coronavirus.

Expel Senators Hawley and Cruz for Sedition.

Not surprised that Trump and his deplorables have, yet again, embarrassed America and undermined our standing in the world. This is why Biden received over 7 million more votes! Hopefully the next 13 days go by without incident. I don’t expect cowardly GOP to invoke the 25th.

The moment Trump told protestors storm the capital should be the moment he resigned as 45th president of U.S. He failed his oaths of office to protect everything he was sworn to do. The VP should now be acting president of the U.S.

When world leaders are more alarmed and forceful against the violence committed against our nation than the outgoing administration... 25thAmendment

LeaKThompson I wonder what these insurgents think about the fact that the only result they created was making more people turn on trump and certify Biden as President

TheView Declare him unfit!

He needs to shut up. When will he allow another leader to take over in Israel and move the country forward towards a Middle East Peace Accord?

Any of those self-serving, enabling bastards jumping ship now are just getting a free vacation. Damned them for cowering and not mustering up any ounce of dignity and respect for this country to, at the very least, do damage control. They may as well storm the Capitol todayGOP

TheView The White House is complicit. Fox News is complicit. Lies incited these people. President trump is the ring leader and his children spewed his hateful rhetoric. They too are complicit

TheView Too late sycophant...too late!!!

TheView Let's see how Mad Meghan says Republicans didnt do anything wrong after yesterday (To help provoke things) Or she won't be in today

I think over 3,000 died from Covid yesterday. Where are their family’s sympathies

TheView The White House is responsible for the loss of life and the injuries because it has enabled a President who encouraged violence. The chickens have come home

TheView Carnage hasn’t stopped obviously.

His people died... his fault!

A woman lost her life for a man (or rather man child) who would not have done the same for her if given the chance. Shows how strong the rantings of a mad man can affect those who feel they have been “wronged”.

Meaningless words. Too late for I'm sorry. If Trump is truly sorry. Step down. Tender your resignation.

Has the orange house seen the number of lives taken by Covid-19!?

Play stupid games, win stupid prizes!

TheView Fox News is complicit for not telling the truth and spewing lies.

Coward

Is he going to have to book his own flight home again?

fuck that guy he and his client started a riot in our capitol and tried to toss an election.

Now I hope they all know how kids feel in their schools.

Why isnt he arrested and charged?!

WTF —WHAT THE LIVING EFF— is this ABC? “West Virginia lawmaker was among the people -- mostly pro-Trump protesters -- who broke into the U.S. Capitol on Wednesday. “ Mostly? A R E. Y O U. K I D D I N G. M E!!!

Just impeach and remove him from office. Trump has nothing else left to say other than forgive me!

Then your president Trump needs to be responsible with what he is calling for!!

Really - 'RESPECT FOR LAW AND ORDER' - sad !!!

Lock him up..!!!🙄🙄

whiteprivilege

He’s lying. It’s immoral and anti-democracy and deadly and destructive and you shouldn’t publish his lies without context. You’ve learned nothing.

2020: At least they're not blaming me anymore

Why doesn't the fuln media, YOU, use this headline 'Rudy Giuliani called for trial by combat' in front of the US Capitol Building before the terrorists stormed into the building?!

is all in on gaslighting us. Giuliani can’t say ‘let’s have a trial by combat’ yesterday at a trump hate rally, then turn around and denounce the violence and aggression he called for.

Empty words from a shell of a man.🖕🏼

This is so misleading!! Quote him saying THIS 👇🏼👇🏼 Whatever he says after this doesn’t matter!!

Ya start sucking up to the people now

OMG, he along with Trump and JR incited yesterday’s tactics.

Two headed viper, and seriously, if not arrested than should be institutionalized

Why is ABC NEWS STILL GIVING HIM A VOICE?!

RudyGiuliani you’re comments now are just a little late. I had so much respect for you after 9/11 and how you handled that situation and what an example you were while the whole world was watching. Now all you do is sicken me!

Afraid of being arrested?

What a fuggin slithering ghoul

A belated attempt to cover his butt.

You missed the part, where he blamed Antifa.

Maybe he was talking about his bowel movement.

Was this before or after he called for 'trial by combat'? Or was he 'just kidding' when he said that? He should be arrested and charged with sedition.

There's video of Giuliani calling for 'combat'. Arrest him for inciting a riot!

Was the shirtless guy with the horns meant to be his champion after he declared trial by combat the same day? You know, this guy.

RudyGiuliani Shameful!!!! You will NEVER have the peoples' respect EVER!! Just remember Trumpy is no longer the President, WE WILL NOT FORGET your part in these days that you supported that inept. JoeBiden will show how a true President should perform the duties

Rudy u have no respect for anyone or anything!

When will someone lock him up. The blood is on his hands he help create this madness.

Why has Giuliani’s ability to tweet not been “blocked”?

Giuliani saying his movement to illegally overturn an election values respect for law and order is an insult to everyone's intelligence. How is RudyGiuliani still able to practice law? He is as responsible for what took place yesterday as Trump.

He played a part in the capital riot.

F*ck you RudyGiuliani. This is on you, too. You can't weasel your way out of this.

That’s not what he said to the crowd.

RudyGiuliani is sickening - his “trial by combat” was taken as a rallying call and permission. He is not a man so he does not own his actions but making them and supporting the lies makes him a traitor

Oh please don’t try and flip this shit now when your president invited this mess in the first place. He purposely called on the proud boys cause he knew damn well what they would do. Next stop. Civil War

What can you say about your little friend?

Rudy is RESPONSIBLE in part for what happened and should face prosecution

Says they guy who called for “trial by combat” just hours before this happened.

So when he said trial by combat to the crowd lol

And he helped incite it. Prosecute. Disbar. Punish. Or there can be no peace.

Irrelevant Rudy Giuliani should be charge for inciting violence how long will we put up with this little toad

Yeah right

This lying POS, he started it.. Lock him up

Arrest this domestic terrorist

Complete opposite of what he told the same crowd hours earlier.

True. Except who initiated the riots yesterday? Bet it wasn’t Trump supporters.

Did he make that statement accidentally to a trash can outside the news studio?

You guys don’t need to quote him any longer

🤡

You are at fault. Don’t always blame the left. Your President Trump has caused these problems. Things need to change but you stand behind a man who causes these problems.

Bullshit, Rudy. You're movement has no interest in law and order, just power. If you really respected the police, you wouldn't have turned New York's finest into your girlfriend's personals chauffeurs even outside their jurisdiction.

Why did he left a incriminating voice message yesterday late PM ? Can the police look into that ? I'm from Canada... this is strange for us.

Read the last sentence!!!!

But, you said Trial by Combat?! That’s what they did - followed your advice and that of Mr. tRump. Disgusting!

Remove him from office IMMEDIATELY

But don’t worry if you rioted before yesterday you are set 🤡

He pushes for this because they are Trump supporters. He was silent when Antifa and BLM terrorized this country for months.

Is he including Trump in that?

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

wsoctv He's officially the majority leader....as of today. You guys didn't cover that?

THE FIRAT PERAON SHOULD BE TRAITOR IMPEACHED TRUMP. ALONG WITH THE 120 CULT REPUBLICAN SENATORS!! NEXT TO PROSECUTE WILL BE THE 1000 OF WHITE TERRORIST WHO BETRAYED OUR. AMERICA BY TRYING TO COUP THE CAPITAL!! ALL NEED TO BE LOCKED UP!!

By the way sen Schumer sir, change Capitol Building guards to that of military contractors.

Mostly Peaceful Protest, period.....

Hopefully this includes the Capitol police who enabled them.

Trump said he loved them and Ivanka called them patriots. You really think this administration is going to prosecute any of them?

Majority Leader ......you bitches

Trump wants the U.S. to kick him out so Pence can become President and Pardon him for all his crimes. We see this!

And don’t forget the one who started it all!

Look how pretty they say do as I say not as I do.

Starting with Donald Trump for inciting the whole thing. LockHimUp

And where were you in Portland burned?

But BLM and ANTIFA terrorist just used their civil rights ... They are just an idea and are acting in peaceful protests ... Democrats live on a different planet ..

I'd hang on a few weeks if I was Chuck. Trump would pardon them all.

If you're looking to hire a social media graphic artist, I'm available.

Poster boy why the world hates the Jews.

Yes to all that but please impeach their leader first. He will cause more chaos.

So they’ll get bailed out by Monday by celebrities?

Got to love the double standards

All those police officers that did nothing to control those terrorists should all be fired! They are klansmen, alt rights, neo nazi, etc,etc! Fire them all! This was a total disrespect for African Americans! They were ready for us when we protested Black Live matter!

Arrest Trump and proceccuse him.

And while they are at it, they’d better not forget the one who incited the mob. Don’t leave the prosecuting job half done.

But you bailed them out....now you turn you back on your riot looting friends

Wonder why he didn’t say this in the summer while stores were looted and businesses burned to the ground! Lock them all up but the hypocrisy is real!

This is the same guy who had no problem with cities burning in the summer?

Incoming Majority Leader 🙌🏽🙌🏽

Where was he in the summer

And Trump paid thugs

Trump invited them. It’s got to be Biden’s admin

Obama you blamed and for Trump you complained now your page in the history book has a big shit stain

Lock them up. They’re domestic terrorists.

Nasty
