The Democrat Party has been overrun by far-left socialists this election season, but that doesn’t mean those who theoretically represent the party’s moderate wing aren’t engaging in alarming rhetoric of their own.
Rep. Susie Lee (D-NV) fancies herself the “most bipartisan” member of Congress, but that willingness to find common ground was notably absent from her latest remarks about the Trump administration.
As Breitbart reported:
“I do want to be bipartisan. I want to work across the aisle. That’s the only way to get things done,” the lawmaker, who is seeking reelection, told an audience at the Sun City Liberal Club in Las Vegas, Fox News reported Friday.“Another issue, Hegseth comes in front of my committee. Now listen, it’s so easy. Like, it’s just so easy. Like, you just wanna to beat the shit out of him,” she said while the crowd laughed and cheered. “Yeah, but I just… you gotta bite it. He came in front of my committee twice.”
With political threats and attempted violence surging on the left, her remarks drew some social media criticism:
Fox News provided these details:
The Hegseth remark is not the first profanity-laced comment to draw scrutiny for Lee. In April, Fox News Digital reported that Lee deleted an expletive-filled late-night social media post targeting Trump after online backlash, then defended her remarks by saying her “nerve was touched” by what she described as attacks on the Constitution.“Secretary Hegseth has made life less safe and more expensive for Americans. The war of choice that he and President Trump started has placed more burden on working families by increasing the cost of gas and groceries. And despite promising to immediately review Congresswoman Lee’s request to get Nevada Test and Training Range veterans the health care they need, Secretary Hegseth has dragged his feet for nearly two months,” a spokesperson for Lee told Fox News Digital. “Clearly, there are many areas in which Congresswoman Lee does not see eye to eye with the Secretary.”
Lee’s comments about wanting to beat up Hegseth came while she was teeing up a story to the Sun City Liberal Club about pressing the Secretary of War during a hearing on the Pentagon’s decision to invest in an Australian company while supposedly leaving a U.S.-based one out to dry. Lee said she appealed to Hegseth by telling him she believed in “made in America” and questioned why the Pentagon had invested more heavily in a different Australian company as opposed to MP Materials, an American one.
“Now listen, it’s so easy. It’s so easy. Like you just wanna beat the s— out of him. I mean yea, but you just got to bite it. So this is what I did – he came in front of my committee twice,” Lee said as she told the story about the rare earth investments.
“You got to lay on their ego, right?” she continued. “Well, three weeks later, they announced a $2 billion investment in MP Materials, okay? I didn’t want to be sweet with Hegseth, okay, I didn’t. But, you know, you got to do what you got to do to get s— done, right?”
Meanwhile, Hegseth continues to prove he’s capable of handling critics, as this recent video demonstrates:
