BREAKING: Dem Congressman Tries Desperately To Cover This Up…

Democratic Representative Jamaal Bowman’s explanation for triggering a fire alarm in Congress has raised further doubts, especially after images of red warning signs were shared on social media.

As previously reported, Bowman activated the alarm on Saturday, causing an evacuation and delaying a crucial vote on a resolution that involved funding for Ukraine. Security camera footage captured the congressman triggering the alarm at an emergency exit.

The incident triggered significant outrage, and Capitol Police took Bowman into custody. Some Republicans pointed out that intentionally triggering a fire alarm could constitute a felony, leading to growing demands for Bowman’s expulsion from Congress.

Rather than admitting to his actions, Bowman claimed that he accidentally set off the alarm. In a statement, he explained that he was confused and merely trying to pass through the door. According to Bowman, he believed that pulling the fire alarm trigger would unlock the door as he hurried to participate in an urgent vote.

However, Bowman’s statement was met with widespread mockery, especially as images of the exit with its prominent red warning signs circulated on social media platforms. The door Bowman attempted to open by triggering the fire alarm was clearly marked with red cautionary signs that read, “Emergency Exit Only” and “Push Until Alarm Sounds.”

Bowman’s press secretary, Emma Simon, claims that the signs confused the lawmaker.

“Congressman Bowman did not realize he would trigger a building alarm as he was rushing to make an urgent vote,” she said, according to Axios’s Andrew Solender.

“The Congressman regrets any confusion.”
