New Jersey congresswoman scolds lawmaker at FBI hearing: 'Do you need your medication?'
NJ.com Advanced Media ^ | July 12, 2018

Rep. Trey Gowdy, chairman of the House Oversight Committee, and another lawmaker were called out by Rep. Bonnie Watson Coleman during a contentious hearing Thursday as the panel looked at Justice Department actions during the 2016 election.

As the hearing with FBI Deputy Assistant Director Peter Strzok grew chaotic, Watson said to Rep. Louie Gohmert, R-Texas: "Do you need your medication?"

The hearing was conducted jointly with the House Judiciary Committee and examined actions during the campaign. The FBI publicly revealed details of its probe into Clinton's private email server but kept secret its investigation into whether the Trump campaign was colluding with Russia.

“There’s no dearth of experience in being challenged as an African American — on the simplest levels of going to a department store and being waited on, being recognized that you are next in line at a restaurant — that just is a part of our life. Being an African American in this country presents challenges on every level of your actions.” ~ Rep. Bonnie Watson Coleman (D-NJ)

Here's another challenge to ponder, Ms. Coleman: Being a shopper at a store while your two sons are robbing it at gunpoint.

Inexcusable and unforgivable for her to say that. This stuff has got to stop. Gohmert was spot on for what he had to say. The FBI guy is a flaming liar. The Dems are so upset BECAUSE they are immoral and adulterers. That’s what upset them.

One would think that after all of the decades of trying to live down their association with toxic waste, NJ would avoid having a Representative who spews it.

I must say the African Americans representing this nation yesterday were a total embarrassment. Why they have such terrible elected leaders is beyond me. Some of them can barely speak English including this dame.

They really are. Democrats in particular are dumb - but the black democrats are so dumb I have to wonder how they find their way to work every day.

and one of them has been paroled and now works in a government job in New Jersey

With his mindset, he'll fit quite well with the IRS.

I think every democrat who spoke yesterday was nuts. What a bunch of fools they proved themselves to be.

She’d be better to ask that question of Maxipad Waters and the leftists everywhere who are harrassing not just government officials but private citizens who have the “audacity” to publicly display their political leanings, if those leanings are conservative.

It’s their usual tactic of projection-the left, types like antifa etc, are out actually perpetrating violence upon people, but the left keeps screaming about potential violence from the right, which never happens.

It was Republican congressmen who were attacked by a violent person wielding a gun, there’s not been one incident remotely similar upon anyone on the left, by anyone on the right.

But they continue to loudly protest about “violence” from the right, which never happens.

Yes, this is the bunch who openly call for people to harass and attack (there’s no way that they don’t know this is a “dog whistle”) Republican government officials, and private citizens who exercise their right to publicly aver their political support for the right.

This is really getting old, someone with a national platform and a megaphone really needs to call the left out on their mendaciousness and incitement of violence, even as the left projects said threat of violence as coming from the right.

Akin to the protest last weekend in Chicago, lead by the usual suspects (Father Faker Phleger, Jesse Jackson, and even the treacherous, cowardly superintendent of police Eddie Johnson-in uniform, yet), calling to “stop the killing”. I wonder how murderous gangbangers participated in that protest?

After watching the Strzok hearings, in addition to observing what a rogue thug Strzok is one observes the democRATS as a bunch of anti-American pieces of $%^t. Could a civil war be in our future?

Indeed. Spend one week on the roads in metro Atlanta. You will find yourself asking that question for all eternity.

Like the family in Mobile AL who were indignant that their thug son was killed by an armed citizen when said thug son tried to rob a dollar store and held employees at gunpoint. They were actually indignant that the citizen “interfered”, the family of armed robber said, in an interview, that the citizen should have just left the scene “peacefully” and let their armed robber son get on with his business. Unbelievable! And unbelievable that they actually felt entitled to publicly speak such stupidity!

Is not a visible affair a firing offense for FBI agents? Does it not expose the agent to potential blackmail?

Besides, Strozak(sic) was complaining about Trump's character TO HIS MISTRESS!

Sounds like a violation of HIPA laws. Should be prosecuted.

We had Scott Garrett who is a good conservative in our district in N.J. until a few years ago when our district was changed around. He is missed here. As far as our new progg guy and the rest of the state goes I can only say UGGGGGHHH.
Our western area of N.J. is nothing like the rest of the state. It is very beautiful here.
