When Democrat congressmen go wild
First, we saw Bob Etheridge (D-NC) attack a student asking him a question:
Then , Ciro Rodriguez (D-TX) acted as if he was about to swat a constituent with a newspaper, as one would a dog:
Now we have Representative Maurice Hinchey (D-NY) first telling a reporter to shut up…
…and then going for his throat:
After the shooters turned off their cameras and started to break down, Hinchey made a beeline for Kemble and got in his face, according to a YNN videographer who was on the scene. The congressman poked Kemble in the chest aggressively, according to the YNN staffer.
I spoke with Kemble briefly this afternoon, and he told me Hinchey βput his hand on my throatβ and then βrealized what he had done and walked away.β The YNN shooter told me he did not witness this part of the altercation.

The oligarchs are frightened, folks, and when frightened, they might lash out at peasants (i.e., us) who dare to question their exalted, entitled selves.
