The Daily Beast reports:
Rep. George Santos (R-NY) didn’t have a great day on Wednesday. Although he survived an effort to kick him out of Congress, with Republicans instead punting the motion to the Ethics Committee, Santos wasn’t spared much dignity Wednesday night after the vote when fellow New York Rep. Jamaal Bowman (D) took to the Capitol steps to heckle the indicted the congressman.
Bowman was joined by his Alexandria Ocasio Cortez (D-NY), who mostly just laughed at the spectacle. Bowman went on to squabble with Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) immediately thereafter, shouting back and forth over guns, immigration and Santos, before Ocasio-Cortez walked up and told Bowman, “She ain’t worth it bro.” Bowman has been garnering some fame for his heckles and “principal voice.”
