House Oversight Committee Chair Representative James Comer was clearly upset as Democratic Representative Maxwell Frost called out Trump as a grifter. He and Elon Musk are financially capitalizing on Trump’s administration by the billions.
“A House Oversight Committee hearing got heated Tuesday, with Republican Rep. James Comer of Kentucky threatening to have Democratic Rep. Maxwell Frost of Florida removed from the room for what Comer called a breach in decorum.
Comer, the committee’s chair, did so after Frost criticized President Donald Trump and Elon Musk’s approach to cutting government spending. “People like the grifter in chief, Trump, and President Musk are openly using their public offices to enrich themselves to the tune of billions of dollars,” Frost alleged.
Comer then said he was “going to have the sergeant-at-arms remove him [Frost] if he doesn’t refrain.”
Frost continued: “So if we want to look at waste, fraud and abuse — which I’m down to do — why is there complete silence on the other side of the aisle about looking at the complete grifter that is the president of the United States and the richest man on the earth? … Why don’t we investigate the real corruption?””
