‘Total Bullsh*t!’ House Dem Explodes at Trump in Profanity-Laced Rant – a Day After Glaring Congress Speech Protest
Rep. Melanie Stansbury (D-NM) let loose in a profanity-laced tirade during a House Oversight Committee hearing on sanctuary cities, slamming Republicans for grilling Democratic mayors on their compliance with the Trump administration’s immigration policy.
New York City Mayor Eric Adams, Boston Mayor Michelle Wu, Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson, and Denver Mayor Mike Johnston all testified at the hearing, which turned into a political battleground over President Donald Trump’s policies.
GOP lawmakers questioned the mayors over their cities’ refusal to cooperate with federal immigration enforcement, while Stansbury took the opportunity to go on the offensive, arguing that Trump had not passed an immigration bill.
“I always think that we should sage this room after these hearings because we hear a lot of crazy stuff in here,” Stansbury said, accusing Republicans of using the hearing to “intimidate state and local officials” and push “complete smoke and mirrors” narratives.
The Democratic congresswoman grew increasingly angry as she hit out at the GOP colleagues.
“It’s total bullshit, absolute bullshit!” she shouted. “They are not making America safer again, and what they are doing is terrorizing immigrant families.”
Directly addressing Trump, she mocked his failure to deliver on immigration reform: “Here we are Donald Trump, where’s your immigration bill? Oh wait, you don’t have one, that’s right. Because none of this is actually about making America safer.”
The congresswoman also made the news on Tuesday night after footage captured her on the House floor before Trump’s address to Congress, holding a sign reading: “This is not normal.”
The sign infuriated Republican colleagues so much that one could be seen ripping the protest sign out of her hands and tossing it away as the president walked past.
