WASHINGTON D.C. (WLAX/WEUX) – Republican Representative Derrick Van Orden is being criticized by other members of the House after they say he yelled at White House Officials during a briefing on the situation in Israel.
Democratic Representative Judy Chu, and a source familiar with the situation from California, says Van Orden approached Biden officials during a q-and-a part of the briefing. They say Van Orden attacked the administration’s presentation and shouted obscenities at the officials. Chu says Van Orden accused the officials of not understanding the situation in Israel while implying he was an expert.
We reached out to Van Orden’s Office for a statement on the meeting, but they have not responded.
