In what can only be described as an extremely odd House Oversight Committee hearing, Democrat Rep. Robert Garcia spiraled into a completely unhinged tirade against DOGE’s Elon Musk, alongside Republican lawmakers.
His comments on Wednesday turned to a rant about “d*ck pics” full of accusations. Garcia accused House Republicans of attempting to dismantle *key* government agencies. He said, “We should in no way be cooperating with House Republicans who want to shut down the Department of Education and destroy Medicare and Medicaid.”
The congressman continued, “Now I find it ironic of course that our chairwoman Congresswoman [Marjorie Taylor] Greene is in charge of running this committee. Now in the last Congress chairwoman Greene literally showed a d*ck pic in our oversight congressional hearing, so I thought I’d bring one as well.”
This comment was referencing a congressional hearing on Hunter Biden, in which an explicit photo of Biden’s son was displayed. Garcia’s example of a “d*ck pic” was holding up a poster of Musk and calling him a “d*ck.”
“Now, this, of course, we know is President Elon Musk. He’s also the world’s richest man. He was the biggest political donor in the last election. He has billions of dollars in conflicts of interest,” Garcia claimed, bizarrely referring to Musk as the president.

“We know that he is leading a power grab also abided by and encouraged by Donald Trump and of course the chairwoman, Congresswoman Greene,” Garcia continued.
“Elon Musk is sending his unqualified DOGE staff to carry out this agenda across all these agencies and in some cases actually teenage staffers,” he fumed. “No accountability, no experience, and problematic records. They’re trying to rob you and they’re probably a minor.”
“DOGE is trying to abolish the Department of Education. That means opportunities denied to kids,” the rant continued. “You’re ripping away opportunities for children with disabilities who are dependent on this money.”
“This entire plan is about hurting the American social safety net and destroying our institutions,” Garcia added “This committee wants to empower the richest person in the world to hurt people so they can take all of this money that they so-called want to save and then give it to themselves, their companies and their billionaire friends.”
I wonder if he feels better after getting that off his chest.
