This was definitely not an aberration. I once had to step in and separate
Larson and a tough reporter (I was the good cop); not that anyone was coming to blows of course.

My friend @DanHaarColumns is right. I'm animated and passionate about my constituents! I will continue to make my voice heard for them, and all Americans who rely on Medicare and Social Security.
No matter what Trump or Musk say, these are your EARNED BENEFITS!
