Due to the recent incident of Rep. Jamaal Bowman (D-NY) pulling a fire alarm in the Cannon House Office Building, multiple sources have revealed exclusive information to Breitbart News. These sources claim that before pulling the fire alarm, Bowman had ripped down two signs warning that the door he was using was for emergencies only. The sources also provided photos of the scene, showing the damage Bowman had caused to the emergency exit door.
According to these sources, Rep. Bowman calmly approached the door while the House Democrats were holding a vote. He proceeded to rip off the red signs and throw them on the ground before attempting to open the door.
The door had clear instructions stating that it would unlock in 30 seconds after the alarm was triggered, but Bowman did not follow these instructions. Instead, he pulled the fire alarm and ran out of a different exit, making his way to the House floor to vote. He did not apologize for his actions or explain them until he was confronted by Capitol Police later on. This reckless behavior caused the entire building to be evacuated, and shows a lack of respect for emergency protocols.
These facts contradict Bowman’s official statement that he was simply trying to exit the building. It is clear that he did not wait for the door to unlock, and did not follow the explicit instructions on the emergency signs. Instead, it appears that Bowman was using this tactic as a delay tactic for his Democratic colleagues in the Senate to pass a funding measure. The main difference between the Senate and House funding plans is the inclusion of billions of taxpayer dollars for Ukraine in the Senate bill, while the House bill does not include any funding for Ukraine.
It is disturbing to see a member of Congress using such reckless and potentially dangerous tactics in order to help his party’s political agenda. It is also telling that once the House GOP’s funding bill was passed, the Democrats quickly changed their tune and voted for it, despite the fact that it did not include any funding for Ukraine. This indicates that their previous attempts to delay and block the vote were simply political games, rather than genuine concern for the issue of funding for Ukraine.

The actions of Rep. Bowman not only caused unnecessary chaos and potential danger, but also show a lack of respect for the democratic process and basic emergency protocols. Using emergency exits and pulling fire alarms should not be taken lightly or used as a political tool. The fact that Democrats in the House are resorting to such tactics demonstrates their desperation to push their own agenda, even at the cost of causing chaos and potentially putting others in harm’s way. It is a disgraceful display of irresponsible and selfish behavior.
The incident involving Rep. Bowman pulling the fire alarm in the Cannon House Office Building is not to be taken lightly. It is clear that his actions were not accidental, but rather a deliberate and reckless attempt to delay the House vote and buy time for his Democratic colleagues in the Senate. This type of behavior should not be tolerated in the halls of Congress, and it is a disservice to the American people. Democrats need to stop playing games and start taking their responsibilities as elected officials seriously.
