Andy Harris (R-MD) became embarrassed by his inability to gain and hold an insurrection.<br><br>&#8220;His attempt was a total flop. He struggled the entire time when trying to pull his weapon out of his pants,&#8221; said one officer at the scene. &#8220;When he asked his Republican colleague for help, he was informed that the colleague wasn&#8217;t licensed to touch another man&#8217;s firearm.&#8221;<br><br>After admitting that there were only blanks in the chamber, Mr. Harris, who is known for exaggerating his ability to perform under pressure, threatened to &#8220;really whip out his piece&#8221; when coming to the Capitol the next day. His plan was quickly thwarted, however, when House Speaker Nancy Pelosi scheduled a late night vote on a stimulus package, something that Harris has never before been able to sustain. <br><br>When asked if Harris should be punished for threatening to rise up and possibly discharge his loaded weapon in the House Chambers, Pelosi dismissed his rhetoric as a cry for help. &#8220;Well, he&#8217;s from Maryland, so we thought maybe his anger issues had something to do with crabs,&#8221; she remarked. &#8220;But I doubt he holds any truly hard feelings towards me or his other colleagues. None of his complaints really stand up to scrutiny.&#8221; <br><br>Harris fired back in an attempt to escalate the situation. &#8220;If there&#8217;s one thing people know about me, it&#8217;s that I don\u2019t go soft before finishing the job,&#8221; he said. &#8220;Pelosi can try to get under my skin by slapping me with excessive fines for disobeying her rules, but she&#8217;s mistaken if she thinks I can&#8217;t keep this up for much longer.&#8221;<br><br>After exiting the House floor with his forbidden weapon, Harris was later seen waiting in line at the Office of the Attending Physician. \u201cWhile he&#8217;s here getting his second dose of the COVID vaccine, we&#8217;ll also give him a dose of Pfizer\u2019s other most famous product,\u201d said a medical aid who asked to remain anonymous. \u201cAs long as he knows to consult a physician if his insurrection lasts longer than four hours.\u201d<br><br><br><br><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>WASHINGTON, DC &#8211; After being stopped by Capitol Police while attempting to carry a firearm through metal detectors at the US Capitol, Rep.
