Markwayne Mullin vs Bernie Sanders: Tense Senate Exchange Goes Viral
Sen. Markwayne Mullin confronted Sen. Bernie Sanders during a tense Senate hearing, accusing him of being “part of the system” and “part of the problem.” Mullin, criticizing Sanders in his role as the Senate Health Committee’s ranking member, said Sanders was exaggerating claims that President Donald Trump and Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s healthcare reforms would cause widespread harm. Mullin argued they are facing backlash simply for trying to fix what he described as a broken and unaffordable healthcare system.
