On Thursday, during a committee hearing of the Wisconsin Assembly Judiciary Committee, Chair Ron Tusler stopped the proceedings and called the police because his fee fees were hurt by a man wearing a hat that read “F*ck Trump Viva Mexico.”
An Assembly Judiciary Committee hearing was interrupted when Chair Ron Tusler, R-Harrison, paused the discussion over someone seeking to testify while wearing a hat with profanity insulting President Donald Trump.
The committee recessed yesterday around 1 p.m. during discussion about the first bill on the agenda. AB 34 would prohibit judges from conducting a hearing to determine if there’s probable cause to charge a law enforcement officer in a death if a DA has declined to pursue the case.
Tusler paused the hearing when someone named G Lee came up to testify while wearing a hat that said “F*ck Trump Viva Mexico.” Tusler said Lee couldn’t testify while wearing the hat because it was a violation of Assembly rules.
The Assembly rules that Tusler mentioned only say that there should be no walking around, reading a printed newspaper, eating, or smoking in the chamber. As the gentle reader can see, even after the police arrived, the man was sitting silently, staring ahead and not causing a single disruption.
