Haley Stevens (Haley Stevens For Congress)
Rep. Haley Stevens (D-MI) made the news today, melting down in a crazy rant on the floor of the House. She claimed that she was speaking on behalf of first responders, but quite frankly it was hard to tell in the incoherent rant.
We seek calm, cool, collected leaders to reassure us in trying times

CNN’s Manu Raju, who is not at all a liberal hack, described this as surprising from a “typically mild-mannered freshman.”
A raucous scene on the floor: Rep. Haley Stevens, a typically mild-mannered freshman from Michigan, goes over her allotted time and the presiding officer tells her her time is up, bangs his gavel and she continued to shout her speech as members were loudly telling her to stop

But that not’s the only crazy emanating from Stevens.
One of her constituents noted a post that she deleted yesterday depicting President Donald Trump as the Grim Reaper. She acknowledged that she made the post.
I have so many words ringing from my heart for my constituents right now- some of you who I even had the pleasure of speaking with today.
I can’t wait to represent you #MI11 at this critical moment for our nation.
See you tomorrow with bells and latex gloves on.

Yes. My aunt sent it to me and I thought it was funny for both sides and is similar to what potus does. We need to get through covid crisis and clearly everyone is fighting hard for the American people which I have tweeted many times 👍

Just exactly how is that “funny” especially in the middle of a pandemic? No, joking about people dying and blaming the president is not funny. Not to mention then adding to Democrats pushing panic by screaming insanely about it on the House floor.
Stevens has a history of unhinged rants. In October, she flipped out at a town hall about guns. She just started screaming, “The NRA has got to go, the NRA has got to go!” She was hissed at and several people said it was she who had to go.
Rep. Haley Stevens screamed "The NRA has got to go" at a gun range in her district last year. https://t.co/uoYjEcH4Iy
