Representative Tom Marino’s (R-PA) accusation that the Democratically-controlled House of the late Bush administration did not address lapses in border security had then-Speaker and now House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) charging toward him on the House floor Friday night.
“We don’t have law and order,” Marino said during debate on the border bill. “My colleagues on the other side don’t want to do anything about it. …Under the leadership of the former Speaker…they knew this problem existed. They didn’t have the strength to go after it back then. But now are trying to make a political issue out of it now.”
This had Pelosi running up to Marino to rebut the accusation off-mic and without being recognized.
“Yes it is true,” Marino said after Pelosi challenged him. “I did the research on it. You might want to try it. You might want to try it, Madam Leader. Do the research on it. Do the research. I did it. That’s one thing that you don’t do.”
“Apparently I hit the right nerve,” Marino said of the exchange. He tweeted about the specifics later:

We’re in the same boat Pal! I’m a musician, and most of my friends are LIV libs. I do what I can. One of my favorites is when they claim the US is a democracy!
Pelosi's misguided mission is to rewrite history, not to research the facts.
5 bucks at the Mustang Ranch for Pelosi? You would have to go through many unplesantness to make any money!
Were any of the comments made by Rep. Nita Lowey(D-NY)? Nita Lowey handed over to Rep. Adam Smith. During that time Pelosi and Nita made different comments.
No. She told him he was an ‘insignificant person’. If she’s going to call a sitting congressman that, imagine what she thinks of the rest of us great unwashed.
yes, for different reasons. ultimately neither side cares what it does to the country, which means what it does to regular citizens.
If she stuck her finger in my face, I would have been hard pressed not to break it off.
Have you been drinking? I do think I agree with you, I think...

The camera angle was a tad to high to tell for sure from your video, but in the last half second, I thought I caught a glimpse of her riding broom handle in her left hand.
