Republican Rep. Doug LaMalfa got an earful at an in-person town hall in Chico, California, Monday morning -- hearing it from attendees upset about his vote for the One Big Beautiful Bill Act, the Epstein files and President Donald Trump's tariffs harming Californian farmers.
"No fascism in America!" one man yelled as LaMalfa explained he was "in the room" on Jan. 6, attempting to reshape the narrative around the insurrection at the Capitol. "You need to be impeached!" the man said.
"Put that finger down. That's really mature," LaMalfa said as another man apparently flipped him off. "Bull----!" the man continued to yell, calling out President Donald Trump's pardons for Jan. 6 rioters.
It didn't get any easier from there. Another woman talked about LaMalfa's vote for the "Bull---- bill," further pressing the congressman on his support for the president's immigration actions.

(28,203 posts)so I follow him on Facebook. This is a deep Red district. A lot of people up here want to secede from California and start their own State of Jefferson. La Malfa is a millionaire rice farmer who gets mega subsidies and is a big election denier.
Glad to see he got some push back.

(120 posts)It got pretty loud & people were angry. It has been 8 years since Doug LaMalfa held an in-person town hall. He was very defensive in his responses to questions & comments & tried to blame Biden & Newsome for all the problems we have. Crowd wasn't having it. About 1,000-1,100 attendees.
