As Trump described his electoral victory in November, to the cheers of House Republicans, Green stood up and shook his cane at the president, yelling, “no mandate.”

House Speaker Mike Johnson, a Louisiana Republican, asked Green to sit down, and when he did not, ordered the House Sergeant at Arms to remove him.

As he was led out of the House chamber, Green, an 11-term congressman who represents southwest Houston, continued to shout at the president.

Democrats around him stayed seated, holdings signs that read “false” and “stop Musk” — in reference to Texas billionaire Elon Musk’s mass firings of federal employees.

      It’s unfortunate that they have the same last name, MTG and Al. No, they weren’t. There is a good reason for that though, they want to be martyrs. Would you have heard about this if I hadn’t posted it? Boebert and MTG have an empire of media to make sure their martyrdom would be known.
