Rep. Jamaal Bowman, D-N.Y., could be charged with obstruction for triggering a Capitol fire alarm during House proceedings, former acting U.S. Attorney General Matt Whitaker told Newsmax on Sunday morning.
Bowman acknowledged pulling a fire alarm Saturday in one of the U.S. Capitol office buildings before lawmakers voted on a continuing resolution to avoid a government shutdown.
"I mean, this is, I think, one of the biggest frustrations among the American people is the two-tiered system of justice, and you have certain people that skate on these types of interfering acts and at the same time, you have folks that are pounded with 22 years in prison. It just can't be that one party is treated differently than another party supporters."
