Verbal Insults Fly as Committee Holds Merrick Garland in Contempt

0:00

A heated exchange between Democrats and Republicans occurred during a meeting of the House Oversight Committee on Thursday night. Republicans pushed for a resolution to hold Attorney General Merrick Garland in contempt of Congress, sparking chaos in the proceedings.

The tension escalated when Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene questioned if any Democrats on the committee employed the daughter of a judge involved in a case related to former President Donald Trump. Democrats criticized Greene for this line of questioning, leading to a verbal altercation between Greene, Rep. Jasmine Crockett, and Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez.

Insults were exchanged, with Greene making comments about Crockett’s appearance, prompting Ocasio-Cortez to call for Greene’s words to be struck from the record. Greene refused to apologize, further escalating the situation.

After a recess, the committee resumed, but the confrontation continued. Crockett challenged House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer for his ruling, leading to further chaos and profanity being used.

The tumultuous meeting concluded with the committee passing a resolution to hold Attorney General Garland in contempt for failing to provide audio recordings of President Biden’s interview with special counsel Robert Hur.
