    Thank you for this @TedLieu. This needed to be done. Listen, as he plays the audio of sobbing children who've been detained by the Trump administration - only for Republican Karen Handel to repeatedly interrupt him in the name of "decorum." Now you care about decorum?pic.twitter.com/3G0QeB5sTV

        He quoted the worst double standard Reagan quote ever. Why would he quote Reagan? It distracts from the important message.

        Because I believe America should strive to be that shining city upon the hill. And because I'm trying to get bipartisan support. Dems are not in the majority.

        Do you think Reagan meant that in a way that wasnt a prop for American Imperialism and exceptionalism? Its not a good quote.

        Yes, it doesn’t refer to using an electronic devise for purposes of supporting your argument. The rule applies to ringing of mobile phones and other sounds made by electronic devices that would interfere with whatever is going on in the house. @karenhandel is lying. Quelle shock!
