Jamaal Bowman sets off a fire alarm. He wasn't asleep! He wasn't incoherent! Why is this guy not prosecuted?
My sentiments exactly 👍
We know why
It's (D)ifferent
He was prosecuted. They gave him a cushy deal. DC Justice Department is oxymoronic. 20+ years for "terroristic" fence touching if you are right wing, but a lesser charge and minor fine if you are left wing.
Rules for thee...but not for ME !!
if Jan 6 was a threat to democracy, and a man was sentenced to 18 years in jail for conspiracy to obstruct an official proceeding. Isn't that exactly what he did when he pulled a fire alarm to stop a vote on keeping the government open. We need equal justice.
Randomly pulling a fire alarm is wrong and dangerous. But it falls way short of being in the league as Trump's violent insurrection to stop the peaceful transfer of power on Jan 6th. Pulling a fire alarm isn't unconstitutional. Attacking the Capitol in an attempted insurrection is. And Trump's refusal to send help to the Capitol for nearly 4 hours(a key piece of evidence showing Trump didn't want to stop it) is known as "Dereliction of Duty." Republicans want to go after Bowman.....have at it. But special prosecutor Jack Smith is going to bury Trump in factual evidence of his crimes no matter what happens to Bowman.
Unfortunately, they don’t read RUclips comments because there is more common, common sense on RUclips. I hear you brother
The fact that you want to compare a planned insurrection by the outgoing President to the pulling of a fire alarm shows exactly why we are where we are in this country
It's not the same at all. Jan 6th was about stopping the peaceful transfer of power, not stopping or thwarting a vote on legislation. Apples and asteroids.
As for Bowen, he proved himself to be unworthy of a seat in Congress. But the vast majority of Americans can say the same about Empty G, and at least a couple dozen members of the GOP. I'm a Dem, and more than happy to get rid of Bowen and Tlaib, and anyone else behaving in a way that's unsavory for their position. We'll always have disagreements, which should be done civilly. Also, making bold faced lies about others, just so to rile up the rabble rousers, is not being civil, even if smiling and speaking such venom with a smile and a soft voice. For every Dem that needs to go, there's at least 10 Republicans who need to follow them out the door.
Yeah good luck with that.
Pulling a fire alarm is a federal offense. He should have been charged accordingly.
He's a black Democrat politician.
Even disagreeing with his policies is deemed racist, prosecuting him for pulling a fire alarm would be deemed genocide of an entire race.
Key words "he should have been charged" He is the least of what is wrong with this both corrupt and cowardly government.
@@donwhitmire978 I agree with corrupt. Not sure about cowardly when it’s being done intentionally. Call out their hypocrisy. Light is a great disinfectant
He was charged and admitted to a misdemeanor. WHY IS HE STILL IN ?!?!
@@George-jy7op 2 tier justice system. Falsely pulling a fire alarm could also constitute illegal obstruction of congressional proceedings, a felony under federal law 18 U.S.C. § 1505. That is the only explanation for his conviction.
As a school principal he has to know that fire alarms don’t open doors. No wonder our kids don’t know how to read or write.
Have you watched full video? He wasn't even looking to open doors. Not only did he pull the fire alarms, he pulled signs off the fire doors. It was way more deliberate than he made it out to be. 100% obfuscation.
I had many dealings with nyboe principals in the business that I was in. Principals in nyc are not what they once were. Being one does not make you the sharpest knife in the draw. I also had a number of principles removed for incompetence. Need I go further. He knew what he was doing. You can see it in the video. His school was a failing school as many are, sad to say, so I would not be surprised if he was removed or knew it would happen sometime soon so he moved on first. What he did was reprehensible for the position he is in within government. What else would he do?
@@cmichaelanthonyimages2197
They do drive quarter million dollar cars though.
Come on Republicans, GROW A PAIR, vote to remove him.
🎯🎯🎯🎯🎯🎯
Show us all where you stand
That’s a bit much for what he did
@@amirabdullah9311 You beLIEve in reparations huh ?
If these Republicans don't grow a pair, and fast, we are screwed. The Republican faction should just let MTG and Byron Donalds run the show, then stuff would get done !!
the fact that he didn't tell the police right away that it was he who pulled that alarm should tell you all you need to know
Exactly. He walked right past a bunch of them moments later.
Bingo
Bowman claims he accidentally pulled the alarm thinking it would open the door, however, he first removed the emergency exit signs from the doors and, after pulling the alarm, never attempted to exit through the doors. He is GUILTY of obstructing official proceedings.
Bowman told more Whoppers than Burger King sold Whoppers
What she failed to mention is that he was also recorded on video just before hand, pulling down signs or papers off the walls during his temper tantrum.
he needs the same consideration as was given the Jan. 6th protesters!
FREE THE HOSTAGES !!
SO TRUE !
Yes Amen they also. In the Senate want to take our gun rights away already cll my two Senateors like I did yesterday and call a bunch of other people and let them know to
So pulling a fire alarm equals putting up a gallows and trying to hang some one. Don't say no one tried, the only reason they didn't was because he was hidden from them. I guess this is republican laws.
Rioters*
This man's DISPICABLE ACTION must not be ignored. His previous position of being a school principal prooves he knows what he did. It is another example of Democrat Duplicity. He should be held accountable publicly so all his voters see how childish he is.
How does his having been a principal prove his cognizance of guilt? Like, unless you're a principal you've never heard of a fire drill?! Wtf?
Take a breath
That’s the truth 💯Percent! No if’s and’s or but’s about it!!!! 👍
@@nickshaw6085Schools do fire drills. Bowman claimed he didn't know how a fire alarm works. Him being a former principal proves that he knows how to operate a fire alarm.
@@nickshaw6085Yeah, being a principal he wasn't in charge of an entire building-or 2 to 4 buildings-with fire alarms located everywhere.
Remember there is video of him removing signs off of the door near the alarm.
Agreed 💯. Thank you MTG, GOD BLESS YOU.
The American people want him prosecuted to the full extent of the law for pulling that alarm!!!😤😡
Correction, patriotic American people. Not the libertards
obviously i missed something what did he do
so..a ticket.
I don’t actually agree with that viewpoint I’m being sarcastic, I find our current house a joke.
These people only care about insider trading and getting rich through the military industrial complex and corporate cash, why are we arguing over this 😭😭
During his tenure as a teacher, and principal I'm sure Bowman had disciplinary hearings for students that pulled fire alarms. He knows what he did!
Yes he knows just exactly what he did
On video caught red handed 😂
Where do think he learned it from?
@@funfact8660where did you see the video? The republicans only released a picture
@@murraymclean5052 The vid is out there.. all you got to do is make an effort to look for yourself..
5 YEARS IN PRISON is what justice would look like.
These folk should be held to a higher standard instead of paying a fifty dollar fine. I say ten years. 🙂
We The People want accountability not censured! Vote to be removed from his seat!
She is correct. This 2 tiered system has been in place for a very long time.
Right?? There's one tier that gets censured for pulling a fire alarm when there are others that have ignored subpoenas, written a plan for a coup, inciting violence in the Capitol, etc. It's 2 tiered alright.
20 years
@@steecie3045 Newly released video footage of 01/06 shows Capitol Hill Police Officers acting as Ushers and Guides for the Protesters. In both guided and unguided tours of the Capitol Building, Democrat Party Politicians and Officials have tried to have this evidence destroyed, it failed, like them, and hundreds released from Federal Prison.
@@Crow-jg4sj What about those pro Hamasses that stormed the Capitol Building on October 13th ?
@@steecie3045Bowman committed a FELONY
Censure isn’t strong enough.
He needs to be expelled for good!
Logical conclusion
I agree 💯Percent
👍
If I walked in and pulled a fire alarm I would still be in jail.
Remember, he also knocked down the two signs on the door after he pulled the alarm.
She’s correct!! He needs to be censured!! Immediately!!
Arrested
Censured immediately? Why? Censuring doesn't do ANYTHING, except attempting to shame the one being censured. Guess what? Democrats HAVE NO SHAME. This is a complete waste of time. It's not even a slap on the wrist...
Just like in school.
No, removed and prosecuted. He committed a crime in congress.
She needs to be removed as well!!!!
He needs to be prosecuted and have his ass in jail.
He was found guilty and paid his fine. You should pay attention.
@@alandueck210 So everyone else who pulls a fire alarm to disrupt official congressional proceeding just gets a fine and walks free??? I think you are the one who needs to wake up and pay attention.
@@admjlw Again, he was prosecuted, paid the fine. It's not like congress has done anything constructive since the Republicans took the majority, so he wasn't really disrupting anything important. Keep whining, nobody cares.
@@alandueck210 wow, you libs really do believe in a two tier justice system. I thought it was just the lib politicians, but clearly they're sickphants are in full support. Hope you're never on a jury.
Should have been thrown out of congress. He knew exactly what he was doing. Anyone else not a democrat would have been put in jail.@@alandueck210
Pulling a fire alarm when there is NOT a fire is breaking the law. PERIOD.
MTG, you are an inspiration. You have no fear when it comes to calling out liars. I would be ashamed to admit that I voted for him. His former students are probably enjoying this moment after his lecturing on improper behavior. 🌵🇺🇸😊
🤣 I haven't seen a Democrat caught so red handed, upset, angry, and babbling nonsensical gibberish since Chris Hansen said, "Why don't you take a seat " 😂 Bowman's busted bigly
You got that right 💯Percent 😂🤣
yes but unfortunately nothing will happen
Havent seen people so excited to be cheering for satan to win
@13Phin what does that even mean?
Yeah kinda like when AOC caught Byron Daniels red handed submitting altered texts as evidence in one of those Clown Oversight Committee Hunter hearings . In the meanwhile, the House GOP has BETRAYED our ally Ukraine, and AIDED OUR ADVERSARY Vladimir Putin by not providing support. All this while going apoplectic about pulling fire alarms and saying he was trying to stop an official proceeding. Which is EXACTLY what happened on Jan 6!
stuff like pulling fire alarms isnt a mistake, the fact that its even debateable these days is insane.
-edit typo
And from those who are elected into high office. I have ZERO respect for politicians.
You go girl!
That would be a criminal charge. At least a "Mischief" charge. I'm sure there are more charges they could add.
If a Republican did it theyd be arrested and in jail the same day.
Anyone who watches that video can see clearly what he did, and how methodical he was. He knew what he was doing and didn't hesitate. He really should have been arrested.
@@richardpatrick2852funny where did you see the video that has not been released?
@@murraymclean5052It wasn't released? You live under a rock?
@Buttsy, Facts!
@@murraymclean5052 They don't show things like that on the "news" you watch. Gee, wonder why?
All caught on camera
He was already charged for it and paid a one grand fine for it. So what is this braying cow going on about?
They hate that 😆
@@yvonneplant9434why the personal attack?
@@yvonneplant9434was he charged with a felony? Did he get jail time? If not then it's Democrat privilege
I knew he flat out lied about it being a mistake (he also removed the signs), but I didn't realize how much chaos his actions caused everyone that day. He should be jailed until his trial. Sometime in 2027.
Thank you Marjorie for saying the truth even though nobody tries to understand.🇺🇸
Whoever claimed this was just a mistake is smoking too much crack... He knew exactly what he was doing and he did it on purpose. The only reason he's not charged or removed is because of his skin color.
Or looking the other way on purpose
It’s because he has a D in front of his name
@@pasta5427not only that but he also has "complexion protection"
Yep, they know many will say, he's pretty dumb and got in due to affirmative action alone
You go girl!! Let's go Brandon!! FJB
You tell ‘em MAGA QUEEN!🤡😂
Jamaal Bowman should be thrown out of office.
Just something to think about..a kid who pulls a fire alarm at a school can get arrested. Think about that.
Kids at school are bright and never pull the alarm.
Marjorie Taylor Greene Mercilessly Attacks Jamaal Bowman For Pulling Fire Alarm
Bowman was convicted of the crime also and they expel Santos who has not even been convicted of a crime yet. What a mockery of justice.
Bless her !!
Bowman took a sweetheart plea deal. Tried to sweep it under the proverbial rug. Probability doesn't understand why it is still an issue.
@@wanda2917 Doesn't matter since he was convicted of the crime and Congress has in the past expelled members convicted of a crime and members in rebellion by its rules. It has never expelled members just for indictments or any other reasons. Santos expulsion was purely political persecution by both democrats and RINOs that are Establishment politicians.
Accountability for a Democrat? Seriously? Not a chance. Bowman knew exactly what he was doing.
He apologized. Only reason they won't drop it is because racism.
@@ItsReallyJackBlackPlease tell me you're being sarcastic. If Hitler apologized for the Holocaust would that make it ok?
@@ItsReallyJackBlack He apologized after he got caught stealing Grandma’s car. What he did was criminal. Apologize after you serve time
@@Jagnyy55441 If he was a white Republican accused of interrupting official business at the Capitol nobody would care
@@ItsReallyJackBlack YOU can't be serious....If he murdered someone and apologized, then apologized but got arrested, would that be RACISM? Typical demwit.
Has anybody researched how many kids were suspended and expelled for pulling fire alarms under this school principals tenure?
any student or worker would be suspended or expelled/fired for such an act
"KNOWINGLY AND WILLFULLY".
He's a Democrat Party Tool and sharp as pudding
Yes Amen
Some peoples sole purpose in life is to nurture and create discord. Before you are a REPUBLICAN you are insecure. Before you are REPUBLICAN you are flawed flesh. Before POLITICAL affiliation you are 'supposed' to be human...flaws and all. So cut the GOP vs DEM crap. It's me against you crap for real. That's what you like and how you see fit to live...you versus whatever crap YOU choose.
@@shellybutler5251 Words of wisdom indeed👍🇺🇸 Vote GOP and set yourself, family, friends, community, State, and America free
He should be expelled! It's on frickin video! 🇺🇸
Just imagine what the very same democrats that are trying to get Bowman off would be saying and doing if Marjorie Taylor Greene had pulled the fire alarm.
He should be held accountable a child in school would be punished if they pulled a fire alarm as a prank
Bowman needs to be kicked out of the house .
MTG WAS RIGHT -IT WASNT A MISTAKE - CAUSE IF IT WAS A MISTAKE HE WOULD HAVE STAYED THERE - HE DIDN'T HE RAN - THATS EVIDENCE OF GUILT ???
Thank you Marjorie! 🫡
Wow.I didn't know what to think when this first happened. Facts matter though and he didn't come forward and admit he accidentally pulled it?
He did do it on purpose. Caught in the video doing it.censor him.
It's illegal to shout fire in a crowded place because it might cause injury, he did no less
The only question to ask is "What would have happened to Trump if he had done this?" and do that to Bowman. Ask Nancy Pelosi what she would have done if it was Trump...
It never was Trump. He is not guilty of a thing.
Jamaal: “I didn’t know it was a fire alarm!”
Joe:” I didn’t know it was the launch button.”
Hah!
Jamaal should now be impeached.
Not only should he be charged with obstructing, but also insuing panic.
He should have been arrested
He should be held accountable.
She is a superstar that actually tries for the American people
My honest opinion? Jamal Bowman is being used as a useful tool. He was asked to do this, with the condition that he would be "protected" by his peers. But he fails to understand that he will only be protected for as long as he's needed.
That Tool's about as sharp as pudding 😆
I can believe that.
Well I don’t
Unfortunately you are probably correct!
Of course, they colluded!
Truth
Resign or be removed this is an outrage!
Greene is just stellar.Bravo!!! Standing novation to her👏
J Bowman should be kicked out immediately and not get another dime!
If a Republican did this they would still be sitting in jail. BS two teir justice system.
Jamaal Bowman needs to be removed from office!
Proof Congress is just like High School.
Excellent analogy.
High School students don't pull fire alarms. They are smarter than that !!
NO EQUAL JUSTICE OF THE LAW ABOVE THE LAW!
You go girl!!!
This despicable goon deserves criminal prosecution and ejection from the House!
he should be in jail for that.
But he’s not. Whining won’t do any good.
Mercilessly?!!! Ms. Greene is merciless?! Would it be merciful to Mr. Bowman to forgive his actions if someone had a heart attack during the time the fire alarm was blaring and the Capitol police were there? Diane
Thank you, Rep. MTG! You have and show more courage and grit every day! We love you!
Jamal will use his privilege to avoid punishment. Disgraceful. See you at the voting polls, rookie.
U GO MT GREENE ! LET HIM HAVE IT! BOWMAN SHOULD B GET KICK OUT OF WH!
Bowman should be expelled from Congress for this.
We should also investigate why it took so long to release the video. One look at the tape, and you can clearly see it was intentional. Stone-walling the release is also intentional.
100%
He should be made to pay restitution! He acted like a spoiled “butt hurt” lil child!
He should be arrested for pulling the fire alarm.
Representative Greene I always appreciate your courage to never give up! The horrific 3 year missing in action lawful judicial system needs more people like yourself fighting for the rights of innocent citizens. Prayers to you and all of those who will not give up on us.
72 years of my life and I’ve never seen I dreamt this would ever happen to our nation. God speed.
I love this woman so glad God blessed her keep up the good fight
Joke on us, a juvenile punk is our law maker now.
You don't accidentally pull a fire alarm. Period.
She is fierce.
We love marjorie taylor green
Yes I love Marjorie Green . She speaks the truth .
Big nation.@@A-Concerned-Citizen
Yes We Love You Marjorie Taylor Greene!! Keep up the good work 💕
She is one of the few that will actually stand up and say something to represent we the people!
@@A-Concerned-Citizenthis coming from a person who thinks stacy plaskett does a good job.
my bad I only took down the warning signs right before I pulled the alarm.
No censure, lock him up in prison.
The video clearly shows Bowman removing signs from the exit first before pulling the alarm. He did it deliberately.
But I didn’t know it was a fire alarm….😳
Sooooo, they kicked out Santos out for LYING!? Yet this person who willfully stopped house proceedings is still in!????
Bowman was wrong and should be held accountable by the full house.
I love MTG ! She has more balls then most of the Republicans put together lol and yes i totally agree with the 2tier justice system. One for Rep and one for Dems.
Two Tier System? The New World Order of Obama and Biden = OBiden have weaponized the DOD, DOJ, CIA, FEI, IRS, CDC, and FDA AGAINST Republicans and Patriots --That's what you have for many years now.
She doesn’t even know what 2 tier just system even means.
3 tier. Forgot for the people.
Biden literally doesn’t even know where he’s at half the time and can’t even find his way off a stage.
Def has balls in there.Only uses them when she's "outraged" against one sided issues.
He should be in jail for that, since it was a serious offense.
Sure. Maybe it will take as long as it takes to put Trump in prison for being an insurrectionist... yes, it takes years for our elected officials to be dealt with officially. Look how long it took to remove Santos when it was discovered he lied and misrepresented himself right after being sworn into office. Then, it took three times to move to dismissal and the costs to go through this process are huge! Why Congress gets very little accomplished that's of substantive value is the minutiae and infighting takes up their time and our money -- whoever said High School, was right!
Fired, Fined and Inprisoned.
MTG you are the only person in congress that I see calling it like it is. Keep it up.🇺🇸❤️‼️💪🏻✌🏻
The Good Citizens of our country need to take the hard road to cure what is going on now . Remember 1776 .
Of course a Jamaal faces no consequences for typical behavior of a Jamaal.
Black Privilege
Amen to that!
@@A-Concerned-Citizen I dont ever wear a mask. I calls em like i sees em.

Jail time!! For crying out loud... Pathetic B.S.
Expel him .. nothing negative about a censure..
