Rep. Al Green, a Texas Democrat, was ejected from President Donald Trumpās address to a joint session of Congress Tuesday.
Green stood in the aisle early in Trumpās speech and shouted that Trump had āno mandate.ā Speaker Mike Johnson ordered him removed from the chamber.
Green told reporters after leaving that chamber that āItās worth it to let people know that there are some people who are going to stand upā to Trump.
āIām willing to suffer whatever punishment is available to me,ā he added. āWhatever the punishment is, Iām not fighting the punishment.ā
