On Wednesday, January 17, it was announced the Capitol Police Department opened investigations into two Congressmen who disobeyed safety rules following the January 6 insurrection.

On January 12, Matt Fuller, a reporter for Huffpost, witnessed Republican Congressman Russ Fulcher of Idaho "manhandle" a Black, female Capitol police officer.



On January 21, Republican Congressman Andy Harris of Maryland was caught trying to carry a concealed gun onto the House floor.

Though members of Congress are allowed to carry weapons in the Capitol complex, guns are not permitted inside the House chamber.



Though no charges have been filed in either case, Capitol Police investigations are still ongoing into the two Congressmen.



Twitter criticized the two Republicans for their disregard for safety.



Many online hoped Fulcher and Harris would face consequences.


When it comes to Congress, it shouldn't be too much to ask duly elected representatives take basic precautions like leave their guns outside or walk through a metal detector on their way in without assaulting a police officer.

'Hunger Games'-Style Immigrant Reality Show Pitched To Homeland Security Sparks Outrage

According to a report in The Daily Mail, the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) is reportedly reviewing a pitch for a reality television show where immigrants would compete for a chance to fast-track their path to U.S. citizenship.

DHS is reportedly collaborating with writer and producer Rob Worsoff on a proposed reality television show titled The American, which risks turning a serious and often traumatic process into entertainment. The concept comes as the Trump administration continues to clamp down on asylum access and prepares to implement a sweeping deportation plan targeting millions of undocumented immigrants.

GOP Rep. Has To Be Woken Up During Roll Call After Pulling An All-Nighter—And Oops

Utah Republican Representative Blake Moore had social media aghast after video showed he had to be woken up by one of his GOP colleagues to vote during a House Ways and Means Committee meeting early Wednesday morning after pulling an all-nighter.

The House Ways and Means Committee worked through the night Tuesday as Republicans pushed forward key elements of President Donald Trump’s plan to extend tax cuts in ongoing budget negotiations. The marathon session extended into the early hours of Wednesday, and just before 5 a.m. ET, cameras caught Moore asleep in his chair as his turn to vote arrived.
