NY-17 Rep. Mike Lawler had a local social worker physically dragged out of his town hall Sunday night.
Emily Feiner was singled out by private security, lifted out of her seat, as the crowd chanted “let her stay” and “shame, shame.”
She’s a constituent.
Not a threat.

Stop the 'Faith-Based' Affordable Housing Act
This unfortunate and disastrous bill is an existential threat to many communities across the state, and to the progress New York is making to battle climate change and protect the environment.

His strategy is becoming clear: disable the Federal Government to the greatest extent possible, then say "See? The Federal government is broken. So I'm taking it all over. I'll fix it in no time." And if he means fix as in "I'll fix you good" he's probably right.

I couldn't watch that thing last night, and am having trouble even hearing it discussed today. So much of what he said is transparent nonsense, yet his minions app[laud it, and I'm afraid some of them actually believe it. Does anybody really think S S is sending $ to millions of people over 100?

Glad Gaetz is out (poor guy, 2 jobs in a month), but I'm suspicious that this was the plan all along. Now Trump can nominate somebody even more dangerous, but also more qualified. Judge Judy, f'rinstance. Or Rudy--don't think he's working right now and he needs the $.
