On 1 October 2025, US Representative Madeleine Dean confronted House Speaker Mike Johnson outside the House floor in Washington. The clash followed US President Donald Trump's decision to post an AI-generated video on Truth Social that depicted Democratic leaders in racist caricatures.
Dean demanded for Johnson to condemn the President's actions and step up in his role as Speaker. What began as a discussion over the offensive video quickly turned into a broader exchange on Trump's health and fitness for office.
