The Democratic Doctors Caucus was interrupted by a barrage of tourists during a press conference outside the office of House Speaker Mike Johnson, R-La., on Wednesday.(snip)
The Democratic Doctors Caucus, comprised of the six Democratic physicians serving in the House of Representatives, planned a press conference in Statuary Hall, a room down the hall from the House speaker's office.
Apparently noticing the large gaggle of reporters staking out Johnson's office amid last-minute member holdout negotiations, the caucus moved their press conference to right outside the speaker's office. Donning their white coats in the crowded hallway, the Democratic doctors began their prepared remarks.
But that area is a major tourist corridor, and the press conference was quickly flooded with tourists walking from the Rotunda past Johnson's office and into Statuary Hall.
Police officers directed members to stand on one side of the corridor, while the press stood on the other.
The result was unusable to journalists as tour guides and tourists' chatter drowned out their remarks. The Democrats' comments were inaudible.

They received no deference or respect because everyone assumed they were just actors filming the umpteenth Big Pharma commercial.
"Look out, I'm the little pill with a big big story to tell and here I come!" (cue fat people dancing)
I recall a similar gathering at the White House to promote Obamacare. It turned out that some of those in white coats were not even in the medical field. Perhaps someone renembers this and can post a picture or video?
This may get my vote for Best Political Video in 2025.
Members of the loser caucus include:
Ami Bera, M.D. (CA-06) – Internal Medicine

Kelly Morrison, M.D. (MN-03) – Obstetrics & Gynecology
Raul Ruiz, M.D. (CA-25) – Emergency Medicine
Kim Schrier, M.D. (WA-08) – Pediatrics
I should go to the capitol in my cleanroom attire, from head to toe. That’s even more than a lab coat. Then that makes me even more “experty”.
Are they involved in abortions, sex change and other medial harm? I wouldn't want those as my kids doctors...or my wife's or mine, either.
All these doctors are from the Unamerican parts of the United States.
