A Moment Turns Ugly<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Speaker\u00a0Mike Johnson<\/strong>\u00a0attempted to lead lawmakers in honoring Kirk on Wednesday, hours after the Turning Point USA founder was\u00a0sh*t in the neck<\/strong>\u00a0and ki**ed during an event at Utah Valley University.<\/p>\n

Johnson told reporters before the moment of silence that Kirk was\u00a0\u201ca close friend of mine and a confidant.\u201d<\/em>\u00a0But when Rep.\u00a0Lauren Boebert<\/strong>\u00a0called for a prayer, about a dozen\u00a0Democrats shouted \u201cNo!\u201d<\/strong>\u00a0in protest.<\/p>\n
