U.S. Congressman Carlos Gimenez (R-Fla.) escalated his ongoing feud with Colombian President Gustavo Petro, calling the leftist leader "a clown" and accusing him of being a drug addict.
"Mr. Petro, I don't know if it's the drugs you consume that have damaged your brain or if it's your thirst for attention," said Gimenez through a post on X. "You say one thing and then contradict yourself. You've proven to be a complete clown, one that has cost the people of Colombia dearly."
