Something very bizarre just happened in the Senate chamber.

Republican Sen. John Kennedy was in the middle of speaking about his common-sense resolution to stop Senators from getting paid during government shutdowns until they end — just like other federal workers.

He was seeking unanimous consent to get the measure passed quickly.

That’s when Democrat Sen. Brian Schatz ran into the room, yelled out an objection, then ran back out!

This led to a lot of confusion in the chamber.

Watch the strange moment here:

🚨 WTF?! Democrat Sen. Brian Schatz just ran into the Senate chamber while Sen. Kennedy was proposing withholding Senate paychecks, screamed “I OBJECT,” then RAN OUT

“He objected and LEFT THE CHAMBER!
Is he coming back?? Wait, I mean, is he ill?!” pic.twitter.com/qnI7karnIv

Backup here if needed:

Geez, what an immature move on the part of Sen. Schatz.

This is no way for a Senator to behave, and honestly, it’s surprising that his objection was sustained.

Take a look at some of these responses:

This is beyond childish.

But the committee president, a Republican from Indiana, refuses to do a thing about it and in fact seems happy that it happened. 🤬

It’s almost unbelievable, but then you realize it’s the Democrats and it’s just par for course for them. ALWAYS AGAINST AMERICANS

The equivalent of pulling a fire alarm IMO.

Because of Sen. Schultz de-railing the whole thing today, Sen. Kennedy’s resolution will now have to take the harder path requiring 60 votes in the Senate.

It’s infuriating.

But, you have to give it to Sen. Kennedy for how he handled the situation.

I was watching this live. Senator Kennedy is a trooper!

Senator Kennedy is a gem. What composure.
