The bill to provide health care to 9/11 rescue workers has so far caused Rep. Anthony Weiner (D-NY) to furiously rant on the House floor and to angrily debate Rep. Peter King (R-NY) multiple times.
Weiner’s latest showdown was with Morning Joe host Joe Scarborough on MSNBC today. Scarborough accused Weiner of using theatrics to distract from the fact that the Dems used a procedural trick that was ultimately the cause of the bill’s failure.
Weiner, in response, told Scarborough to “dial it down,” to which Joe replied: “Anthony Weiner is telling me to relax?”
After Scarborough interrupted Weiner a few times, Weiner said: “If I were you I’d try to break my rhythm too, because you’re not having a good morning.”
Later Joe fired back: “You gotta talk, because you know you’re wrong.”
