Boebert's moment during a somber moment when Biden brought attention to the U.S. veterans who have suffered from toxic exposure to military burn pits in Iraq and Afghanistan.
By FARNOUSH AMIRI, Associated Press WASHINGTON — As President Joe Biden was coming to the end of his State of the Union address Tuesday night, a somber moment about his son's death turned into a stunning outburst by one of the Republicans' most outspoken members.
It was just the latest breach of decorum for a presidential address, an annual event where unruly behavior by lawmakers has become almost expected. Republican Rep. Joe Wilson shouted"you lie!" at President Barack Obama during a joint speech to Congress in 2009. Eleven years later, Democratic House Speaker Nancy Pelosi ripped up a copy of President Donald Trump's speech while standing behind him.
"A cancer that put them in a flag-draped coffin" Biden started to say when Boebert yelled,"You put them in. Thirteen of them!"
