It didn’t take a rocket scientist to predict that Rep. Jamaal Bowman (D-NY) would get a pass for pulling the fire alarm in the Cannon Building while the Democrats were trying to delay a vote to avert a government shutdown.
Bowman got a sweetheart plea deal and then, on Wednesday, the House Ethics Committee decided against opening an investigation into what he did. What a surprise, there would be no DOJ charge for “obstructing an official proceeding” for Bowman or an investigation from House Ethics. He gets out of the whole thing with just one misdemeanor, and no time, from that. Bowman agreed to pay a $1,000 fine and make a written apology to the Capitol Police as part of his plea deal. So, he gets a complete pass.
What an amazing thing the “magical D” is. Can we talk about the two-tier system of justice again? Bowman should be truly ashamed of what he did in pulling the fire alarm. But instead, he acted disturbed that everyone wouldn’t just accept his silly spinning of why he did it. He even snapped at CNN reporter Manu Raju over it, as Raju pressed him on his contradictory statements.
Giving him a pass must have made him truly think he can do anything. Because what he’s saying now is hilarious. It’s perhaps typical of Bowman’s view of reality.
I'm grateful that our continuous calls for a ceasefire and the return of the hostages has begun to make a difference.

How funny is that? Is that spin or does he truly think so much of himself that he believes Israel gives a fig about what he says? If so, he certainly has an overinflated opinion of his importance. I’m sure that Israel was waiting by the phone, with bated breath, for every pearl of wisdom to drop from his lips, knowing how enlightened it would be. Not. But that’s the entitlement mentality of the left: We must be listened to, even when we have wrong ideas.
Bottom line? Israel did it to help get the hostages out, and it had nothing at all to do with radical leftists in this country flapping their gums and “fighting.”
People had great fun laughing at Bowman over this, including Israeli journalist Lahav Harkov.
Yes, it was you who did this. Sure. https://t.co/VVnkxHJ9hp

Lol. I literally burst out laughing at your post and your arrogance. You had as much to do with the deal between Israel and Hamas as you did with Season 6 of The Crown on Netflix. Which is to say: nothing.
