Dem Rep. John Larson Freezes on House Floor in Medical Emergency Scare

Connecticut Rep. John Larson froze during a speech on the House floor Monday in what his office is calling an “adverse reaction” to a medication.

Larson, 76, had been criticizing how Elon Musk and his subordinates in the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) were able to obtain access to sensitive payment information in the U.S. Treasury Department.

“Now [President Donald Trump] is saying he’s not even accountable to the courts because he and the billionaire class have gotten together and said, ‘Don’t worry, no one on the Republican side in the House and Senate who control both the House and Senate is going to speak up and challenge us,‘” Larson said, before pausing for an extended period.

He could be seen attempting to continue through the speech but having difficulty doing so.

He is my Congressman—old time Democrat party hack in a super safe district.

We do not want him to croak—because the next Congress-critter from the district will probably make AOC look like a moderate.

The democrats seem to be under a lot of stress.
Others are becoming completely unhinged.

Another case of acute Turtleitis? Freezing up at the podium seems to be a fairly common occurrence as of late.

The bank accounts of the starving and thirsty kids in Africa and Europe are dwindling rapidly. The RAT’s are going to have to “fight” and “kill” in the streets to save their beloved USATM from being shut down by the “constitutional crisis MAGA men”.

That's pretty scary, no matter who you are. Surprised no one rushed up to see if he was OK and not ready to pass out. At least some one brought him a cup of water at the end.

“..We need a few more of these lefties to vapor lock...”.

Fixed it:
We need a few more of these lefties to vaporize.

How McConnel-like. I wonder if it’s something in the water. Or maybe all congress critters become pod people at freshman indoctrination.
