GOP Congressman orders cops to drag elderly woman constituent out of Town Hall, while audience boos him.

Anonymous
I am proud of women who are standing up to this BS.

I loved her peace sign as she was forcefully dragged out by several armed men for showing up at a local town hall to be a peaceful voice against authoritarianism.

Shame on those men, indeed.

Americans are showing that they will allow their neighbors to be just carted off, especially women, and do very little beyond a few boos. This is the second grey-haired woman manhandled by police at a congressional town hall meeting.


I don’t understand why every single person didn’t just walk out after that.

First of all, she's not elderly.

The media is raising hell about illegal aliens carted out of the country.

I want to see them raising hell about our elected officials using their power against citizens rightfully using their voices such as this gutsy lady.

They need to call out these officials and get them drummed out of office for abusing the power we've given them to represent us.

Because they didn’t want to let Lawler off the hook without having to answer questions. They came to the Town Hall to hold him to account.

"People are saying" she was an illegal alien, so you don't have to worry about any abuse of power anymore. This is how it works with you, bright?

The worse part is lines like “the congressman is giving up his time.” WTF. The congressman’s time is for his constituents, especially at a public forum held to talk with them about local issues and policies. The entitlement as though this time his more valuable than that of the other people there.

If he doesn’t have time and doesn’t want to hear complaints here are some ideas: 1) Resign 2)Do you job. I suggest the folks of NY tell him to take up #1 since it’s clear it’s incapable of doing the job.

If these Republican cowards can't stand the heat, they need to find another line of work.

I thought the same. Interacting with constituents is part of his job, not an example of his doing them a favor.

Talk to her about it: "I'm an old Jewish woman, and I'm not leaving."

He thinks it's hilarious that the poor expect him to do his job.

I guarantee that Lawler got a call from the RNC reminding him that town halls are verboten, precisely because this happens.

NO MAGA politician deserves a second a peace. Give them hell 24/7. Make MAGA afraid.

This is totally shameful and anti-democratic.

But I willl say, and the NY deputies don't get a prize for not being aninals, that it is a relief to see them being relatively gentle compared to the goons elsewhere.

Good for this gutsy lady.

But the media is not raising hell about anything, much less about illegal immigrants. What nonsense. The media is totally normalizing the atrocities. All of them.

Do not forget that on March 15th we put dozens of legal Venezuelan immigrants, men with no criminal records who were awaiting their asylum court dates, in a maximum-security prison known to abuse human rights in a third country. These men did absolutely nothing wrong and were targeted for having tattoos. It does not get more wrong than that and no, the media is absolutely not raising hell.

Ok, I felt the need to look up her age. She is 64 but I think she looks younger than that. I don’t know if I consider that “elderly” but regardless she is a badass.
