If Stacey Plaskett is a non voting member of Congress. why is she allowed to sit on a House Select Committee ??

[_whips]

That phone call didn't encourage violence.

[connycharleslindstrom]

Stacey Plastic, the female Al Sharpton 😢

[alexandriaocasio-smollett]

Why is she even sitting on a committee when she’s not even a voting member of Congress??

[Rogan]

Stacy gives an all new meaning to STUPID & CRAZY

[jeffg]

Plaskett and her cohorts seem to think this is still the January 6th Kangaroo Court.

Jordan needs to use the gavel more. The democrats are out of control.

[anthonytelenta]

She is why "Stereotypes" will survive...

[GoldenMom]

This so called Congress rep doesn’t get to vote on legislation. How is she ranking member?

[AlexanderZapataIndividual]

So she superimposed the riot to the call calling for protests? The call does not insite rioting. It merely calls to protest.

[LightInsights]

There was nothing wrong with that call

I often watch comedy to offset the horror of the news, however this got true full belly laugh when she started taking, the democrats are truly the clowns of our society.

[mmwrangler]

Prime example of violence in its early stage . She doesn’t like it and throws paper.

[NonsenseSir]

It’s gonna be 2045 and they’ll still be milking January 6th lol

[mattmortimore]

This ladie has not even earned a seat that she is setting in.

[brkbtjunkie]

Nothing in that robocall was illegal. It is our right to redress our grievances with our government.

[Srrjhn]

Since when do Democrats
Use facts! 😂😅

[justmatt]

Thank you for playing that vital evidence in which i could clearly hear “come to the Capitol, enter the building and cause havoc” ….oh wait

[nancykorensek]

How did a New York lawyer become the representative from the Virgin Islands? I guess we have to be happy that she doesn't have a vote.

[dhoover]

Did she use Maxine Watters as her coach?
