She refused to allow a search of her bag and eventually was let into the House chamber.

I'm going to try that next time. We're all equal, right?

No—but it is good for one of the few people on the right who still is conceded rights by those who would seize them to assert those rights to remind them that we all should have that right.

I vote not guilty on her, but guilty for 400+ members of Congress.

We’re not equal — by design.

There is a provision in the U.S. Constitution that protects members of Congress from harassment and arrest while carrying out their duties and while traveling to and from their respective houses of Congress.

No you don’t under the constitution.

Representatives and senators have specials considerations when congress is in session.
