‘YOU COWARD!’ – Democrat calls out Republican on House floor over DHS funding

They’re trash talking on the House floor!!

Watch below:

More from National Journal:

Tensions in the Capitol reached a boiling point Thursday as House Minority Whip Steny Hoyer was caught calling House Majority Leader Kevin McCarthy a “coward” on an open mic.

McCarthy had just finished speaking on the House floor near the end of a long day spent fighting over funding for the Department of Homeland Security, which is set to expire when the clock hits midnight Friday night. Earlier in the day, House Republicans pitched their members on a three-week short-term funding bill, a plan Democrats have long called a dangerous approach.

After McCarthy finished outlining Friday’s schedule and yielded back his time, Hoyer was heard — audibly on C-SPAN (at the 33:06 mark) — snarling, “You coward.”

I guess it’s much more courageous to support Obama destroying the constitution just so that he could pander to illegal aliens huh?

Oh and where’s the “civility brigade” now, when a Democrat attacks a Republican like this during official congressional debate?
