Democratic Michigan Rep. Rashida Tlaib got into an intense shouting match with Republican Florida Rep. Byron Donalds during a Thursday hearing after appearing to call the GOP fascists.
Democrats’ rhetoric about Republicans has come under scrutiny since Turning Point USA (TPUSA) founder Charlie Kirk’s assassination on Sept. 10. During a House Oversight Committee hearing on crime in Washington, D.C., Tlaib used the term “fascist” and said that Republicans should not be offended by it, leading Donalds to snap back.
