For the Marxist-inspired radical left, who live and die on the belief that the ends justify the means, rules, protocol, and decorum mean little.
Case in point, U.S. Rep. Cori Bush (D-Mo.), a new addition to the squad, heckled House Majority Leader Steve Scalise (R-La.) from the floor of the House on Thursday after Republican lawmakers began passing a series of annual appropriations bills.
As Scalise spoke about funding for military construction, the Department of Veterans Affairs, and other agencies, the former Black Lives Matter activist screamed: “Your bills are racist!”
Bush, who doesn’t hesitate to call her Republican colleagues “fascists,” then took to Twitter to boast about her stunt:

The catcall by the former faith healer who once duped folks into believing she can cure cancer, AIDS, and other serious illnesses prompted an outcry from GOP lawmakers.
One member was heard calling out, “Mr. Speaker, the House is not in order!”
Speaking of being out of order, Bush was hit with an ethics complaint with the Federal Election Commission back in March over allegations she violated federal law in steering $60,000 in campaign funds in 2022 to her now-husband for private security. On Wednesday, one of the complainants, the Committee to Defeat the President, “re-upped” its investigative demand with a complaint supplement “detailing how Bush paid her husband another $30,000 in 2023 for ‘security services’ and ‘wage expenses,'” the Washington Examiner reported.
“Cori Bush’s crime spree continues — now with convenient new descriptions in her FEC report,” Dan Backer, a Republican campaign finance lawyer for the super PAC told the Examiner. “Bush has walked into a legal trap of her making. She’s either falsifying FEC reports that her husband illegally provided security services he’s not licensed to provide, or he did illegally provide them and she violated the law prohibiting paying for illegal things.”
Here’s a quick sampling of responses to the story, as seen on Twitter:
This is the current moment for democrats….not only is acting like a child acceptable, it’s rewarded. https://t.co/NMnasPbkpr

It’s time for the House to censure @CoriBush for her indecorous behavior.

You’re the poster child for what racism is!

Cori, a race baiter is always going to say what a race-baiter says. It’s all they know.
