Republicans pounce!
As Twitchy reported, Rep. Nicole Malliotakis is leading the way in trying to get Rep. Jamaal Bowman expelled from Congress for pulling a fire alarm to delay a vote on a continuing resolution to fund the government. Of course, it will never happen. It was a simple mistake, after all:
Bowman: I was just trying to get to my vote the door that's usually open wasn't open..I didn't mean to cause confusion. I didn't know it was going to trip the whole building. I thought it would help me open the door.

Obviously, he's lying. Capitol Police are investigating, but he should have already been put under arrest. He's on security video doing it. But he "regrets any confusion." It sounds like an insurrection to us, interfering with congressional business.
WJLA in Washington, D.C., reported that … well, just read it.

He ADMITTED to pulling it, he’s not “accused” of pulling it

Did they pounce into the accusations before the police were already involved?

You spelled Capital Police wrong.

It’s literally on video and has been widely circulated. People really need to hate journalists and the media more

You just can't stop lying, can't you?

Bowman: Yes I pulled it.

Media: GOP accuses Bowman.
No, you propaganda mouthpiece. He was caught on camera. Can you even pretend to act like reporters?

“GOP lawmakers accused”

The ‘journalist’ clown parade just never ends, does it?
Y’all gonna burn in hell for that headline…

He’s admitted doing it. First he said it was unintentional because he was in a hurry, when the video/pic of him casually pulling the fire alarm came out, he changed his story to thinking pulling the fire alarm would open the door.

What is it you do for a living?
Winston Rogers reports:
An investigation is underway after GOP lawmakers accused a Democratic representative from New York of pulling a fire alarm while House members were heading back to session shortly after noon on Saturday, sources told ABC News.
Rep. Bryan Steil, R- Wis., GOP Chairman of the House Administration Committee made an accusation against Rep. Jamaal Bowman in a post on the site formerly known as Twitter.
…
It's not clear why Bowman pulled the alarm, or whether it had anything to do with the vote on government funding.
This is why the people hate the media.
