Bernie once again demonstrating that he's the only adult in a room full of children. It's got to be frustrating as hell to be surrounded by these morons constantly.

That gop senator is little bitch Markwayne Mullin.

Here he is cowering during the "peaceful tour" of Jan 6.

Whatever you do, please don't share that with him on Twitter or email him with it.

where Teamsters President Sean O'Brien

He was a union man. I wonder if this guy knows his descendant ends up being the most important man in starfleet history.

I goddamn love Sean, he makes me happy to be a teamster. This years UPS contract was a great start in bringing rights and safety back to the union, its the next contract that we need to look forward to getting the union what we are owed.

Absolute clownshoes from ~~Tennessee~~ Oklahoma, lmao.

Jesus Christ, these Republicans are children.

Oops, my bad. Clownshoes is from Oklahoma.

So you're telling me that some hick named "Markwayne" from Oklahoma wanted to settle things with a fistfight? Seems pretty on-brand.

This country is truly descending into a big pile of manure. Such primitive thinking. I saw Trump doing the whole fistfighting thing against Biden, too.

Yeah, we've all seen it. You're real manly men.

Anybody giving odds on this? I'd like to put $50 on the teamster. I would love to see someone put that election-denying, Chuck Norris wannabe on the mat.

The politician who declared “I’m not Rambo” after his much-ridiculed attempt to enter Afghanistan in the company of a private US security team, boasts on his website a 5-0 record as a professional mixed martial arts fighter.

The official record of his short-lived career suggests a different story: a total of three wins, two against the same opponent, and cumulative fight time of less than 10 minutes in under three rounds.

I would pay hilarious amounts of money to watch fuckin Mark Wayne get his shit stomped in the Senate

Yes, he can absolutely kick my ass, but he is still one of the biggest pussies I have seen. Being tough and strong also includes your mind. It is through might that the weak and stupid shall rise to power.

This conduct is unbecoming of a senator!

Now a member of the House of Representatives and now governor of Montana? Feel free to physically assault people with zero consequences.

Mullin, what a giant pathetic ass snowflake.

nobody is rushing to condemn this like they all rushed to pass a law banning hoodies though.

so much for the civility argument.

Dude thinks he's Senator Armstrong from Metal Gear Rising.

Don't they know you're supposed to take it outside or wait for after class. You don't just throw down in the middle of the room.

Come on Bernie, this is pathetic. You should know better than to try to appeal to a Republican's non-existent sense of decency!

Casual Sanders W

GOP Senator: "Uh, so?"

Yeah I'd love nothing more than to see someone floor a stupid GOP senator. God damn it, Bernie!

This is the best summary I could come up with:

Sen. Bernie Sanders stopped a fight from breaking out in the middle of a Senate committee meeting on Tuesday when a Republican senator stood up from his chair to fistfight a labor leader who was testifying.

The incident occurred during a Senate Committee on Health, Education, Labor, and Pensions hearing titled "Standing Up Against Corporate Greed; How Unions are Improving the Lives of Working Families," where Teamsters President Sean O'Brien and other labor leaders were scheduled to speak.

During the hearing, Sen. Markwayne Mullin of Oklahoma read aloud a post O'Brien previously made to X, formerly known as Twitter, where he called the Republican senator a "Greedy CEO who pretends like he's self made."

In June, Mullin drafted his response to O'Brien's comments onto X, challenging him to an "MMA fight for charity," though the brawl never actually took place.

After reading out the post on Tuesday, Mullins responded to the criticism in person, particularly to the claim that he was pretending to be self-made.

The almost-brawl comes approximately eight months after a previous committee hearing in March where O'Brien accused Mullin of being a "greedy CEO" who "hid money."
