Clay Higgins is a parasite and I have no respect for many of my neighbors because they keep voting for this fermenting pool of vomit.
Clay Higgins was the only member of the House to vote against releasing the Epstein files.
His record also includes allegedly putting a gun to the head of one of his ex-wives, voting for a neo-Nazi, and assaulting an unarmed Black man while working as a cop.
