The Democratic Party is facing backlash from its own base after 10 House Democrats joined Republicans in voting to censure Rep. Al Green (D-TX) for interrupting President Donald Trump's recent address to Congress.
Green, a vocal critic of Trump, shouted at the president during his speech on Tuesday, challenging his claim of having a mandate and condemning potential cuts to Medicaid. Green ignored demands for order from House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) and was ultimately escorted out of the chamber. Thursday the House voted 224-198 to censure Green for the protest.
