WATCH: Democrats Go Ballistic on the House Floor After Their Own Precedent Backfires
Democrats are really, really upset that Republicans are making them live by their own precedents.
During the last congress, Democrat leadership broke the norm of allowing the minority party to dictate its members’ committee assignments. That led to the ouster of Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene from all committees based on the farcical claim that she was a threat to Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez.
Newly-minted Speaker Kevin McCarthy vowed to enforce the rules Rep. Nancy Pelosi put in place to target Republicans, and so far, he’s kept that promise. Removing Rep. Ilhan Omar from the House Foreign Affairs Committee is the next step in the plan, and that’s being debated on the floor of the House on Thursday.
Expectedly, Democrats are going ballistic, and no one more so than Rep. Rashida Tlaib.

AOC says removing Omar from the Foreign Affairs Committee is "racism and incitement of violence against women of color"
