All Hell Breaks Loose In The House As Jim Jordan Gets Screamed At To Put His Mask On

Jordan was warned that he did not have the time and that he was being disrespectful to his colleagues.

Rep. Jamie Raskin (D-MD) then yelled at Jordan, “Put your mask on. Put your mask on.”

I thought I had heard something awhile ago from Pelosi about not letting anyone in the Chambers if they didn’t have a mask on. Whatever happened to that?

I don't know what it is about him, but he strikes me as being very dirty and unsanitary. There is just something very smarmy and sordid about him.

It's not only his politics and behavior, it's something that just radiates from the core of his being. I can't really put my finger on it, but he makes my skin crawl. It's like he's dirty behind the back of his ears and neck and wears grungy, soiled underwear or something.

I know that is an unpleasant thought that will gross most of you out, but that is just the vibe I get from him whenever I see him.

Lots of people are spitters. If you use public restrooms, you smell where they tried to spit into toilets or urinals and missed. It can be awful, depending on a person’s dental and tongue-cleaning hygiene.

In The Strange Case Of Doctor Jekyll And Mr. Hyde.

Even though Hyde is always depicted in the films as being repulsively ugly, in the book, there's no definitive feature visible about him that makes him ugly. Stevenson says that anyone looking at him got the impression that he possessed some hideous deformity that he kept hidden, not visible to the eye. A sensation of revulsion.

There is something repulsive about him that can't really be described, not physically. I mean, he is a physically unappealing man, but the thing that is so repellant about him goes deeper than that. It goes soul deep. I think that is why I can't really explain my aversion to him. It's hidden, but it permeates his entire being.

And have him held in contempt of Congress for failing to follow an order of the committee chair.
I don't know why Congress doesn't hold these people in contempt. Contempt citations for some of the witnesses would be in order, too.

Exactly how long does it take to put on a mask? An hour? Three? No. More like 5 seconds of less.

I really, really hope he gets the virus. And doesn't just test positive, but gets sick, really sick, needs to go into the hospital. Except people like him should not be allowed to go into hospital. Go home and suffer. If you recover, great. If not, oh well.

control of Rep Scanlon. It's a way of saying, "hush, it's not your turn to talk."

Jordan constantly acts out this way (as do other Repubs) and gets away with it for the most part. No one ever really stands up to him about it, so he keeps right on acting like a spoiled brat.

Schiff punished Gaetz for breaking into a closed impeachment committee hearing by starting a clock and promising to dock all Repubs present any time he wasted. That shut Gaetz up and got him to leave. I dearly wish that others would follow Shiff's example and get creative about punishing Repubs who misbehave in chambers, or set the rules such that penalties are clear beforehand and then used to enforce better behavior.

Every day, with or without jacket, Gym spends a couple of minutes to wrap a completely useless swatch of fabric around his neck, and then tie it in a knot, to hang for no purpose. They can be pretty expensive, and need to be cleaned when soiled. It's called a necktie.

Yet, this same man makes an issue and refuses to wear a mask in the time of a pandemic that is not only inexpensive and quick to put on, but can be life saving. The mask HAS and fulfills a very serious purpose.

This goes to each Covidiot for whom wearing a mask is such an issue. Don't you see how ridiculous you're being, guys?
