Dem reads GOP’s James Comer’s committee the riot act for ‘thuggery’
Rep. Stephen Lynch (D-MA) unloaded on the Republican-majority House Oversight Committee on Thursday for their treatment of Democratic governors being grilled for their states containing sanctuary cities, calling it "thuggery."
After listing off examples of ICE brutally snatching up immigrants, the Massachusetts lawmaker blew up on Kentucky Republican Rep. James Comer's committee shouting at them and equating what is going on under Donald Trump with Nazism.
"This is disgraceful, it should not happen in this country," he shouted. "It's wrong. Deploying the military against the civilian population is wrong! And if we don't step up this will continue. If we don't step up and declare what is right under our Constitution, then other cities, other citizens will meet this same fate."
"I'm proud of my Democratic colleagues who are willing to stand up to this thuggery," He exclaimed. "Trump is a wannabe gangster. He's showing the world what he is about."
"You know my Dad served in the Second World War, he fought the Nazi's in Northern Africa, he fought the Nazis on the Italian peninsula," he continued. "And I think he is looking down right now, and he's happy that I am fighting today's Nazis.'
