A hearing on government efficiency took a bizarre left turn when Rep. Robert Garcia, D-California, whipped out a “d**k pic.”
The hearing on the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) was headed by Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, who opened by vowing that the Government Efficiency Subcommittee would be “laser-focused” on transparency, documenting the waste of taxpayer dollars that has gone on for years, and presenting solutions for the issues uncovered by the team.

Naturally, a hearing on clearing out the corruption that has existed in the United States government for far too long wouldn’t be complete without some form of Democrat resistance. Cue Garcia’s idea of a clever quip.

“I wanna just start off by making something clear, I think we’re all here to fight against the lies, the corruptions and the attacks on our social safety net,” he said. “Now we should in no way be cooperating with House Republicans who want to shut down the Department of Education, and destroy Medicare and Medicaid. And we should not stand by as the richest man on the planet gives himself and his companies huge tax cuts while the American people get absolutely nothing.”
“Now I find it ironic, of course, that our Chairwoman, Congresswoman Greene, is in charge of running this committee,” Garcia continued. “Now, in the last Congress Chairwoman Greene literally showed a d**k pic in our Oversight Congressional hearing, so I thought I’d bring one as well.”
“Now this of course, we know, is President Elon Musk,” the congressman said, holding up a photo of Musk and playing to the Democrat conspiracy that Musk is running some kind of “shadow government” behind President Donald Trump’s back. “He’s also the world’s richest man. He was the biggest political donor in the last election, he has billions of dollars in conflicts of interest, and we know that he is leading a power grab also abided by and encouraged by Donald Trump and of course the Chairwoman, Congresswoman Greene.”
X users reacted to the congressman’s “childish” behavior:
Woah. So edgy

Dems are so childish. It’s really sad that these are some of our “elected” leaders. I say leaders loosely. Elon bootstrapped his success. These politicians just leech the blood of the taxpayer

You all are scared of being exposed

When you’re out of arguments… resort to insults and profanity…

Congressman Garcia is childish and should be removed from the DOGE committee given his determination not to work with them in good faith,

Wow! Democrats will do and say anything to continue their grift. Garcia sounds a bit butthurt to me
