    WATCH: “Squad” Rep Ayanna Pressley “completely lost her mind and screamed like a lunatic” at James Comer during House Hearing

    In a very entertaining, if also depressing, given what it shows about the state of the American government, moment during a House of Representatives hearing on Wednesday, March 5, far-left Rep. Ayanna Pressley started having an utter meltdown. In fact, she screamed at the top of her lungs at Rep. James Comer.

    That spat between Massachusetts Democratic Congresswoman Ayanna Pressley and Kentucky Republican Congressman James Comer came during a hearing about sanctuary cities in the ouse Committee on Oversight and Government Reform, a committee that Rep. Comer chairs.

    The issue leading to the shouting match was that Rep. Pressley wanted to introduce into the committee’s record a series of articles that purported to show that the violent crime rate of Texas-born Texans was higher than that of migrants, something that many on the left claim is the case but which has not been proven.

    Rep. Comer wasn’t having it. He shut down her attempt to have the articles entered and the shouting match started immediately afterward, as Pressley wouldn’t stop reading from the article. “This trend of you all trying to get thrown out of committee so you can get on MSNBC is going to end. We’re not going to put up with it,” Comer told her while Pressley continued reading from an article she wanted entered.

    Rep. Pressley, freaking out, screamed at Rep. Comer that it was her “procedural right as a member of this committee.” She further declared, angrily screeching at him about the article, “You do not get to dictate how I recite articles for the record. And I take particular umbrage as a survivor of sexual violence. I will enter into the record, this is my right!” Comer, not having it, moved on and told her she wasn’t recognized, ending the two-minute screaming match.

    Paul Syzpula, posting on X (formerly Twitter) about the incident, wrote, “Rep. Ayanna Pressley (D-MA) just completely lost her mind and screamed like a lunatic when Rep. James Comer (R-KY) insisted she follow committee rules for entering articles into the record. Democrats are now purposely trying to get thrown off committees.”

    Similarly, news-focused conservative X personality Collin Rugg, commenting on the shouting match, said, “Rep. Ayanna Pressley and Rep. James Comer get into a screaming match after Pressley tried entering an article into the record.” He also quoted Pressley as saying, “Data from Texas shows that US-born Americans commit more r*pe and mu*der than immigrants.”

    A commenter on Rugg’s post noted that the purported information showing illegals don’t commit crimes is absurd, as Pressley should well know. That commenter said, “@RepPressley knows damn well that in Massachusetts they’re not allowed to ask if a defendant is an illegal alien. That information is not recorded intentionally. She’s up there as a member of Congress lying with fake crime stats.”
