>> Yes ma'am. >> Mr. Allen, did you or
did you not decriminalize public urination in Washington DC?
Did you lead the charge to do so?
>> No, the revised criminal code left that as a criminal charge.
>> Did you lead the charge to decriminalize public urination in
Washington DC?
>> No, ma'am.
>> Did you ever vote in favor of decriminalizing public
urination in Washington DC?
>> Lauren Boebert is trying really, really hard to get a sound bite out of this
house hearing that was held in regard to crime and homelessness in Washington DC.
>> Mr. Allen, based on these statistics, I would like to talk to you
about some other things that are going on here in Washington DC.
Specifically an initiative that you led, in November of 2022,
you led the charge to reform DCS crime laws.
Is that correct?
>> I chaired the committee that that proposal came
>> You led this charge, yes sir.
And these changes are now law here in DC, correct?
>> Do you mean the revised criminal code?
>> Yes.
>> No, those are not the law.
>> Those are not the law, did, >> Revised code was
rejected by, >> Excuse me, Mr.
Chairman I talked to Mr. Allen.
>> [LAUGH] Yeah.
God, so bad.
Excuse me, Mr. Allen.
I just love how she just ignored what he said.
I just completely, >> I like my version better.
I'm gonna stick with this one and
I'm gonna need it cuz the stuff that's coming next is worse for me.
>> Dude, you could tell that she's also panicking,
it's not going the way she wanted, >> She's got to be enraged at her team,
assuming she's happy, she couldn't get a single fact right.
>> But if you thought that was bad, it's about to get worse for Boebert.
And you know I love it, let's watch.
>> Mr. Allen, did you or
did you not decriminalize public urination in Washington DC?
Did you lead the charge to do so?
>> No, the revised criminal code left that as a criminal charge.
>> Did you lead the charge to decriminalize public urination
in Washington DC?
>> No, ma'am.
>> Did you ever vote in favor of decriminalizing public urination in
Washington DC?
>> The revised criminal code that was >> Did you ever support,
>> Kept it as a criminal offense.
>> And you support this, criminal >> I voted for it, yeah.
>> You voted to keep it as a criminal offense.
>> That's correct, the full counsel did.
>> We have records that show that you were in favor of removing that
criminal offense and allowing public urination.
No, >> Is that something that you intend
to pursue in the future?
>> No, the legislation you're referring to that came from the criminal
Code Reform Commission changed public urination from a criminal to
a civil offense.
The council then changed that to maintain it as a criminal offense at the request of
the mayor.
>> Thank you.
>> I bet you do.
I yield and can I leave, please?
[LAUGH] I have somewhere to be.
I left my oven on, goodbye.
[LAUGH] >> She sounds like she has a pee fetish or
something like she is so >> She desperately wants her 15
minutes of water sports fame on the national stage.
I got to get him on the peeing please.
Please give me something, a dribble something, sir.
>> [LAUGH] I've received a leak from your office.
[LAUGH] Okay.
>> You say you're against it, but we've got evidence on your pants that implies
that you've, it's just like this is an actual job being a congress person,
being involved in these hearings is an actual thing.
I understand that a lot of stupid people have made their way through Congress and
they make it look pretty easy, but
it's an actual job that deserves serious consideration and work.
>> No, considering how ineffective Congress has been at
accomplishing anything.
I just wanna take this time to personally thank Congresswoman Boebert for
doing something which is providing some comedic relief in this unbearable and
devastating news cycle.
With that said, let's watch others laugh at her.
>> And then addressing a number of really serious concerns that our
constituents have.
They're choosing to waste our time by meddling in the district of Columbia and
talking about public urination over and over.
I just wanna make sure do you have anything additional you want to say about
public urination?
Now's your time.
>> I do, >> No, not you, I'm talking to
>> [LAUGH]
>> It's not your time.
It's a question >> [CROSSTALK]
>> I know sometimes it's hard when
you wanna go but just hold it for like a little bit longer, please.
I'm trying to have a conversation here.
>> [LAUGH] >> No, put your hand down,
we're doing something right now.
You can't go, you can't do it.
>> This was the best story I've covered in a long time.
Thank you for adding it to the rundown, it's amazing.
I had not seen any of these videos until now.
They're amazing.
>> All of this is just about someone who again pretends to support the forgotten
masses or whatever just trying to demonize unhoused people.
That's all that this is about.
>> I mean, look, her intentions are nefarious and disgusting.
So let's be clear about that.
But let's queue up that last video that we watched again.
Doesn't mean we can't laugh at her, because she deserves to be laughed at.
I got to watch that one more time, I'm sorry, please indulge me, let's do it.
>> They've been addressing a number of really serious concerns that our
constituents have.
They're choosing to waste our time by meddling in the district of Columbia,
and talking about public urination over and over.
I just wanna make sure,
do you have anything additional you want to say about public urination?
Now's your time.
>> I do.
>> No, not you, I'm talking to >> [LAUGH]
>> It's not your time.
It's a question >> [CROSSTALK]
>> I die.
>> I do.
She is just so utterly self destructively confident in herself.
Confidence is generally a good thing.
We teach kids you should have confidence but some shouldn't,
because it gets them in trouble.
Sometimes a bit of humility would be better for you.
>> That is the problem with Lauren Boebert, too many participation trophies.
>> Clearly.
>> Absolutely.
