I do not care what the reason was for this behavior.
It was not acceptable when Ms. McKinney tussled with a Capitol Police officer, and it is certainly not acceptable in this instance.
On Thursday afternoon, Rep. Christopher Shays (R-Conn.) got into a loud, angry dispute with a U.S. Capitol Police officer at the security [...]
Michael Yon posted two interesting articles yesterday with the first being relatively short with a video included. (This is a follow up to his piece “Bless the Beasts and Children”
His second dispatch “7 Rules: 1 Oath” can be found here, and I found this one particularly informative.

A Jersey City, N.J., woman who lives in the flight path of the Newark airport, woke up this morning to find what appears to be a shoulder-mounted rocket launcher on her front lawn.
Niranjana Besai was leaving her house, located at 88 Nelson Street, to go to work just after 8 this morning when she spotted [...]
We have always heard the Senate is an exclusive club and the world’s most deliberative body. Our founders pictured the House of Representatives as a cup of hot tea, while the Senate was the saucer to cool that tea.
