Dem Congressman Has Explosive Meltdown on House Floor Over Gov't Shutdown: 'Stand Up for America!

Rep. John Larson (D-Conn.) screamed on the House floor Tuesday, urging Republicans to "stand up for America" and end the partial government shutdown.

"The American people in greatest land, the greatest country in the world, deserve to have their government open," he said. "And they deserve to know where their members stand! Do you stand with your country? Do you stand for your country? Or do you want to take it down this evening?"

Only getting louder, Larson then told lawmakers to "keep this government going."

"Stand up for America! Stand with us this evening and keep this government going, in the name of fairness!" he concluded.
