Democratic Representative Al Green was escorted out of the House chamber on Tuesday night after interrupting US President Donald Trump’s joint address to the Congress. Green, a longtime advocate for Trump’s impeachment since the president’s previous term, stood and waved his cane toward Trump during the early moments of the speech. His actions sparked a mixed reaction from lawmakers, with some cheering and others booing, leading to commotion on the House floor. The disruption prompted Speaker Mike Johnson to remind members of House rules.
