Quick Glance: GOP Rep. Van Orden verbally attacks Senate pages during Capitol tour

Republican Rep. Derrick Van Orden verbally attacked and insulted teenagers during a late-night Capitol tour.

The incident drew a rebuke from Republican Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell.

Senate pages are typically teenagers nominated by their home state senator to assist in the Senate and perform various tasks.

Democrats quickly criticized Van Orden, citing his presence outside the Capitol during the January 6, 2021 insurrection as evidence of disrespect towards the Capitol and its history.
