Republicans violated a procedural rule that they put in place regarding citing the relevant Constitutional passage when putting forward a piece of legislation (the specific piece of legislation they were trying to put through was with regards to cutting funding for abortion clinics.) The Democratic Representative from New York, Anthony Weiner, called them out on it and spent 54 minutes arguing the point with them. I found it kinda fascinating to watch, if only because he’s clearly a motivated, clear speaker and it’s an insight into the American legislative process.
