WASHINGTON, D.C. – In a bold response to his formal censure, Representative Al Green (D-TX) stunned the House chamber Wednesday by wordlessly pulling out am Uno Reverse card and holding it up.
The room fell silent as confused lawmakers looked to the Speaker for guidance. “I… don’t think that’s how this works,” stammered one Republican representative.
Green remained unfazed. “You censure me? No, I censure you,” he declared, slowly rotating the card for maximum impact.
Some Democrats burst into applause while others nervously Googled “Uno rules.” A visibly frustrated Speaker attempted to restore order, but Green doubled down, flipping through a stack of cards labeled “Draw Four” and “Skip.”
At press time, congressional aides were frantically checking the House rulebook to confirm whether this move was, in fact, legally binding.
