It is "decidedly improper and impermissible."

Three Russian MiG-31 violated Estonian airspace near Tallinn for more than 12 minutes. The long duration in this NATO air space is a clear sign that this was a calculated provocation.

Nancy Mace moves to censure Ilhan Omar for ‘vile comments’ about Charlie Kirk: ‘All but blamed him for his own assassination’
If Mace’s resolution passes, Omar would be the 29th lawmaker in US history to be censured.
