Sergeant at Arms Removes Belligerent House Democrat from Trump’s Address to Congress
During a recent joint session of Congress, Democratic Representative Al Green from texas was ejected from the House chamber while President Donald Trump was delivering a speech. Green expressed his objection by shouting, “You don’t have a mandate,” while brandishing his cane. In response, Republican members of the House chanted “USA! USA!” to drown him out, and others, including Representatives Nancy Mace and marjorie Taylor Greene, directed harsh comments at him, urging him to sit down and to be removed. House Speaker Mike Johnson intervened, directing the sergeant at arms to remove Green after he continued to disrupt the proceedings. as he was led out, members of the GOP sang a farewell song.

Green introduced impeachment proceedings against Trump no less than three times for non impeachable offenses, failing to get 95 votes on any of the occasions, during Trump’s first term.
According to the San Antonio Express-News, in February, Green moved to file articles of impeachment again after Trump suggested the United States take over the Gaza Strip as part of a peace settlement between Israel and Hamas.
