The House has just voted to censure Rep. Jamaal Bowman for pulling the fire alarm and forcing the evacuation of the Capitol building, as well as bringing fire and police response.
And then of course he lied about it, claiming he thought it would open the doors or something.
Here’s the votes, in which no Republican voted against it:

Democrats are pretending as though Bowman is a victim of evil Republicans when he did this and deserved punishment:

What Bowman really deserves is being expelled from Congress for this juvenile act. But it looks like censure is the most he’s going to get.
The three Democrats who voted with Republicans are Jahana Hayes from Connecticut, Chris Pappas from New Hampshire and Marie Gluesenkamp Perez from Washington State.
