He messed with the wrong woman.

On Tuesday, Republicans in the House ended an Obama-era rule designed to reduce racial and gender discrimination by automobile dealers.

During the debate on the floor, things got heated when Rep. Maxine Waters (D-CA) took issue with the remarks of Rep. Mike Kelly (R-PA) who said:


"How in the world can you reduce this down to discrimination?"

He continued:

"We are trying to make sure that we make America great every day in every way. And the best way to do that is to stop talking about discrimination and start talking about our nation."

Waters hit back:

I want you to know that I am more offended as an African-American woman than you will ever be. And this business about making America great again, it is your president that is dividing this country... And don't tell me that we don't understand [about discrimination], that is the attitude that has been given about women time and time again.

She went on:

Don't you dare talk to me like that and think that somehow women don't understand what goes on on the floor of automobile dealers.

And when Kelly asked her to yield the floor to him, well...

And no, I do not yield one second to you, not one second.

You can watch the exchange below:

And people were here for Waters's clapback:

Trump made headlines this week after admonishing Israel and Iran for violating a ceasefire agreement he'd announced on Truth Social. Although he claimed the ceasefire had been "agreed upon," Iran fired at least six missile barrages at Israel after it was supposed to take effect.

State Department Slammed After Requiring Visa Applicants To Make All Social Media Posts Public For Vetting

The State Department is facing harsh criticism after it announced that anyone applying for an F, M, or J nonimmigrant visa will need to disclose all social media profiles from the last five years, requiring that all applicants set their posts to public so they can be properly vetted by its agents.

The agency said the new rules are part of a new screening process aimed at identifying individuals who may pose a threat to U.S. national security. According to the department, failure to comply could result in a denial, and consular officers have been instructed to flag signs of “hostility” toward the U.S.—though the criteria for such determinations remain vague.
