Former Immigration and Customs Enforcement Acting Director Thomas Homan put Democratic Rep. Pramila Jayapal (Wash.) in her place Thursday after a contentious exchange over border detention practices.
During a House Subcommittee on Immigration and Citizenship hearing on “The Expansion and Troubling Use of ICE Detention,” Homan and Jayapal, the vice chairwoman, got into a shouting match, which started after she brought up reallocating funds to go towards more detention beds.
"I've asked you politely to let me go beyond my time, and you let other people go beyond their time, but not to Tom Homan!" he fired back.
Jayapal slammed her gavel down to quiet a frustrated Homan, who exclaimed, "This is a circus."
The situation escalated from there, with Jayapal demanding that he "respect the chair's authority."
When he started to respond, she once again began banging her gavel.
"Mr. Homan!" she yelled.
"You work for me!" he shot back. "I'm a taxpayer. I'm a taxpayer, you work for me."

Well, nuzzlin’ joe must remember them days since he says he wants to take Trump out behind the gym. LOL!
Calling Pramila Jayapal a “critter” is a soft term of affection with mild humor.
She’s nothing of the sort. She’s an alien, bitter cold frozen faced Marxist who not only doesn’t belong in our congress, she doesn’t belong in our country.
She has NOTHING to do with the American union OR the state of Washington. She’s merely a freak who was airdropped into our midst who screeches at idiots to intimidate them into giving in to her.
Homan clearly understands all that and has no interest in cooperating with her. Her oath of office was an obvious fraud, and there’s nothing in the Constitution which compels us to obey the rule of foreigners.
She got downright rattled, lol!
I love how he made her lose her s#it at the end!
A Congress with even a dozen Tom Homans in it could transform the country.
Good for Mr. Homan. He’s like how a lot of people in this country feel and that is they’ve about had it with these Dems. We’re at a boiling point right now!
“It would be good for Congress to revert back to when arrogance and rudeness in Congress was met with a good ole’ fashioned asswhipping.”
It’s coming.
Thomas Homan for sainthood.
The Republicans could learn how to deal with Democratic BS like this man does.
“She’s nothing of the sort. She’s an alien, bitter cold frozen faced Marxist who not only doesn’t belong in our congress, she doesn’t belong in our country.”
Thanks Washington for dumping this ugly arrogant smartassed un American dot on us.
There was a gunfight on the floor of the House one time between members...............They banned guns after that.................
Many links with videos available.
Too bad.
“i’m a taxpayer, you work for me.”
haha, she did not seem to have a pat answer for that remark.
I forget what it was about, personal insult probably................
That was outstanding.I wish more Republicans would fight like that.If they did these rats would discover they’re not going to get what they want without a fight.
GO TOM HOMAN!!!!
we need to freeze frame the look on her face, it actually was a KO blow. congress needs to be reminded more often that they are not royalty and they work for us!!!...
