Homeland Security Secretary Markwayne Mullin lost his temper during a House Appropriations subcommittee hearing Thursday, calling Rep. Rosa DeLauro (D-CT) a hypocrite and telling her she should be “put in her place.”
The confrontation erupted when DeLauro, the panel’s ranking member, invoked former President Donald Trump’s family separation policy that separated 3,900 children from their parents at the border.
Mullin interrupted and countered, 450,000 children were “lost” during the Biden administration, and accused DeLauro of remaining silent on the matter.
DeLauro demanded the hearing chairman restore order.
Mullin responded directly to her, telling her she should be put in her place.
Hearing Chairman Rep. Mark Amodei (R-NV) banged his gavel and attempted to restore order.
Mullin, a former U.S. senator and professional MMA fighter, did not apologize.
DeLauro refused to yield and reiterated her position on the family separation policy.
