WATCH A Democratic Congresswoman Clap Back At A ‘Mansplaining’ Republican

During a House Judiciary Committee hearing, a Republican member of the panel got his head handed to him when he attempted to mansplain something to one of the Democrats on the committee.

Rep. Mike Johnson (R-LA) made a last-minute request to enter into the record a letter on the topic of “political violence” from Louisiana Attorney General Jeff Landry, which led Del. Stacey Plaskett (D-VI) to respond, “Another thing we can’t examine because he’s not here.”

Committee Chairman Jim Jordan snapped back, “You can examine it; it’s a document.”

Plaskett countered, “No, examine him for what he wrote and the intent behind it.”

Johnson walked the letter over to Plaskett, which led to her almost throwing the document at him and noting that she didn’t him “mansplaining” things to her.

The clip has since gone viral on Twitter, and once you see it, you’ll know why.
