Rep. Mike Flood, R-Neb., faced intense questioning from people at a town hall Tuesday, at one point conceding that he did not read a provision in the House’s “Big Beautiful Bill” before he voted for it, triggering loud protests from the audience.
The town hall was held in a high school in Seward, Nebraska, and livestreamed on YouTube by News Channel Nebraska — a media network founded and owned by Flood.
Flood admitted he did not read the full bill when an audience member asked him why he had voted in favor of a provision that would make it harder for judges to enforce orders holding parties before them in contempt for defying court orders.

and here’s the full town hall. i don’t have time right now to find the exact moment mentioned here, but i’ll probably try if someone else doesn’t beat me to it (hint hint):

Imagine hearing all that and not charging the stage. Wild.
here’s my out-of-ass prediction: more will start happening now that it’s getting warmer. this summer is going to be HOT in more than one way. you’ll see groups start to resist when people are removed from town halls. you’ll see more neighbors coming together against having ice agents in their area. i don’t see much in the way of protests, but there’s bound to be an incident in the next month or two that sparks nation-wide riots. i could go on, but my candle just burned out and my quill nib is running dry.
FYI, you linked the same video twice.
meh, you get what you pay for :P
gimme a sec, i’ll see if i can find the right link
edit - fixed it above - thanks
