BREAKING: Senator Faces Expulsion Calls After Mocking Murder of Lawmakers
GOP Senator makes fun of the tragic murders of democratic lawmakers.
Republican Senator Mike Lee is facing growing calls for expulsion after posting online about the recent assassination of two Democratic lawmakers in Minnesota.
Lee shared memes blaming "Marxists" for the attack, despite law enforcement identifying the suspect as a Trump supporter and former Republican.
One post read, "This is what happens when Marxists don't get their way," alongside another captioned "Nightmare on Waltz Street." Both posts have since been deleted.
Former Minnesota House Speaker Melissa Hortman and her husband were killed. Senator John Hoffman and his wife were wounded. Officials are treating the case as a politically motivated assassination.
Public backlash has been swift, with critics calling Lee's remarks disgraceful and dangerous. Expulsion from the Senate requires a two-thirds vote and has only happened 15 times in history.
