A break in Wednesday’s Congressional hearing on the spread of fake news quickly turned hostile, with Sen. Marco Rubio warning conspiracy theorist Alex Jones to keep his hands off of him.
“Don’t touch me again, man,” Sen. Rubio said to Jones, who was badgering him with questions during a media gathering. “I’m asking you not to touch me again.”
“I just patted you nicely,” Jones contested. “Oh you want me to get arrested?”
“You’re not going to get arrested, I’ll take care of it myself,” Sen. Rubio responded.
The exchange, caught on video by The Gateway Pundit’s Cassandra Fairbanks, featured plenty of barbs lobbed back and forth.
