The Democratic Senators of Arizona, Mark Kelly and Ruben Gallego, had a fierce confrontation with Republican House Speaker Mike Johnson on Wednesday when the US government’s closure entered his eighth day. The exchange took place in a corridor and focused on Johnson’s decision to delay the curse of the Democrats’ latest congressional wife until the Senate resolved the impasse and reopened the government. The tense exchange of six minutes was characterized by sharp insults and powerful cross talks, which emphasize the deep division between the two parties on how to move forward with the reopening of the federal government. Each side remains firmly entrenched in its position, making it clear how difficult it will be to break the stalemate. Watch the video here: The Democratic Senators spoke to reporters outside the office of the speaker in the US capital to argue that he refuses to swear in Republican Adelita Grijalva, because she would be the decisive voice to force a home vote associated with the Jeffrey Epstein case files. The speaker exchanged handshake with the pair as he approached to return their claims. “Your apology just keeps going,” Gallego said, while Democrats pointed out that Johnson’s swear by Florida GOP representatives Jimmy Patronis and Randy Fine during a pro forma session, when the house was not formal in the session -earlier this year. Johnson defended his decision not to do the same for Grijalva by saying, “That was the exception we did because the family was here. Grijalva, the re -elected grijalva had not yet had a scheduled date because she was elected after the house was out of the session. Johnson, who said he was fortunate that Grijalva was elected, denied it had something to do with a vote on the Epstein files and noted that the house did not have to vote on the release of more of them, because the home supervisory committee had already conducted a dual investigation. Adelita Grijalva won a special election for a home seat on September 24, but she was unable to officially represent her district because the speaker had to swear her yet. Despite the fact that the home was inactive due to government closure, speaker Johnson, a Republican Louisiana, has so far refused to accept her request to officially accept. “They do the job. They do it methodically. They do it with summons, and you don’t need a congressional act to happen because they are already on it,” Johnson said. After accusing Democrats of “holding the American people as hostage,” Johnson ended the exchange. “Ok, I’m going to go to work again. This Lord had a publicity stunt here. You see the issue, they must vote to reopen the government, simple and simple. The house did his job, ‘he told reporters, according to CNN. GOP -Cenator questions whether the deployment of national guards after cities is ‘best practice’, sen. North Carolina Thom Tillis indicates that troops of the national guard are not best equipped to address crime in cities and that the liability for policing should remain with local officials. “Is this deployment of the National Guard a part of an upcoming best practice I haven’t got yet?” Tillis asked the lawyer General Pam Bondi during a Senate supervision trial. Your apology keeps moving. I am eager to take the oath to her as soon as you vote to open the government. It was a little indirect criticism from Tillis, who did not seek re -election next year, about how Donald Trump deployed the national guard troops to major cities as part of his crime and immigration agenda.
