EXCERPT:
House Appropriations Subcommittee on Homeland Security Chairman Mark Amodei (R-NV) intervened on behalf of Rep. Rosa DeLauro (D-CT) during a particularly heated segment of a hearing with Homeland Security Secretary Markwayne Mullin.
Order at the committee broke down when DeLauro, the ranking member of the full House Appropriations Committee, began criticizing Mullin’s Department of Homeland Security over the separation of illegal immigrant children from their families. Mullin began defending himself while DeLauro was still speaking, triggering a yelling match.
Mullin first interrupted when DeLauro was condemning the loss of immigrant children under DHS care, contrasting it to dry cleaning when a tag gets you your clothes back, to which the homeland security secretary countered, “I wish the Biden administration would have done that.”
“Let me just say this to you, sir — again, it is my time — 3,900 children were separated from their family,” she said, prompting another interjection with Mullin pointing out the number of children lost under the Biden administration.
“Mr. Secretary, do not interrupt,” DeLauro yelled while pointing her finger at Mullin.
