Let’s dive into the latest Capitol Hill drama.
Rep. Jim McGovern (D-MA) stirred the pot with his offensive words about President Trump’s New York criminal cases on Wednesday.
And the GOP wasn’t having it!
Well his remarks were struck from the congressional record.
McGovern made these comments during debate on a set of GOP bills on cryptocurrency and noncitizen voting.
The Democrats claim that’s a distraction from the Trump trial.
Then McGovern went to X to voice how he was treated unfairly and that the GOP has double standards, willing to attack Biden but protect Trump.
Rep. Jim McGovern was sanctioned by Republicans for listing out the various indictments and criminal allegations against Donald Trump.
