Maybe someone pulled the fire alarm on Jamal Bowman this time! Either way, he finally got his wish of an evacuated Congress. The departing Democrat Representative from New York recently gave his farewell speech at the Capitol. But, only three of us fellow lawmakers bothered to show up to hear his goodbye.
Have a look.

Bowman is infamous for pulling a fire alarm last year in the vain hope of evacuating Congress to delay a vote.
For that idiocy, fire alarm jokes will dog him the rest of his life.

That’s illegal & not good advice.

Lady, it’s a joke!
Some are wondering if there’s another reason the chamber’s empty. Well, besides his unpopularity.
Who yielded their time? It’s like a tree falling in the forest - nobody was there to hear it or even cared.

I think a few hundred yielded their time lol

Some are hoping the fellow Democrat lawmakers who did show up to support him, will soon join him in being out of office. We’ve got some sad news.
The rest of the squad who hopefully will be voted out.

Live in cue ball’s district, unfortunately she ain’t going anywhere.

Good luck with that. Unfortunately, the rest, especially AOC, will likely have their positions as long as they wish.

AOC will be there forever and probably will be speaker one day.

Unfortunately, it looks like they’re never going home.
One person thought the empty cavernous room was sad, but most just laughed and said he deserved it.
Dang, nothing else could have made me feel sympathy for them.

But this feels like the kids birthday party where no-one shows up.
Zero sympathy for that dude. Maybe the will be a catalyst for him to reform his life.

It is a reverse birthday party where we all celebrate by not showing up.

More like the bully’s party where no one shows up

Bowman should receive a fire-alarm wall unit to take with him as a paper-weight in his future jobs as radical political organizer, some dei position, or whatever. He should have been arrested for that stunt.

Bowman was charged with pulling the alarm. He got off easy with just a $1000 fine. We do like the idea of him getting a fire alarm pull paperweight though.
