'Shut your mouth' - Maxine Waters cuts off Jim Jordan

Rep. Maxine Waters (D-Calif.) told Rep. Jim Jordan (R-Ohio) to "shut your mouth" during a congressional hearing on Thursday.

During a House Oversight coronavirus subcommittee hearing, Jordan and the country's top infectious diseases expert Anthony Fauci clashed over public health precautions, with both men raising their voices. When Jordan ran out of time for questions, subcommittee Chairman James Clyburn (D-S.C.) turned the questioning over to Waters, but Jordan continued his questioning. "I'd like my question answered," Jordan said.

“Time expired, sir,” Waters said to Jordan. “You need to respect the chair and shut your mouth.”

"We’re going to handle this,” Clyburn said. “And I think Mr. Jordan knows me very well. And he knows full well that we’re going to handle this.”

to tell Ted Qruz to shut up, or maybe Josh Hawley. Now they've been shown what having balls is like--by a woman.

When a shambling rubbish heap like this slug doesn't even crack the Top Ten (or Bottom Ten, perhaps) of my most-despised Republicans.
He's just dumb and annoying, and virtually never has anything to say. Doesn't stop him from flapping his mouth about, though.
