After days of debating online, the fight over the PACT Act resumed in Washington on Monday as Liberal Jon Stewart becomes unhinged on camera.
Before Democrats broke their commitment to enable an amendment that would remedy a problem with discretionary expenditure, the PACT Act, enjoyed bipartisan support. The Act funds veteran care related to fire pits.
The Left, including Stewart, is now claiming that Republicans simply despise veterans. One of the worst claims that can be made. the fact, however, that these games, that affect Veterans’ lives, are being played in Washington proves how much both parties contribute to The Swamp.
Jack Posobiec, a conservative analyst, confronted Stewart while he was in Washington, D.C., at the Capitol Building, in order to continue his protest against Republicans.
Stewart was fired up and this time, his anger was focused and raw.
Benny Johnson of Newsmax, posted a video of Stewart as shouts at Posobiec and calls him an “f—ing troll.” The video has since gone viral.
At least we can say we tried. @JackPosobiec consistently asked if he could use his platform in any way to bring opposing sides together. Jon just screamed at him. At one point grabbed him. CNN cameras will show only part of this, but I got lots too.

So uh, @JackPosobiec and I went to speak with Jon Stewart outside the Capitol. Jack asked some pretty ordinary questions, and Jon began screaming in our faces for about 10 minutes. At one point he was nose to nose with me. I kept trying to calm him down. pic.twitter.com/5C9bxEXTAr

At this time there is no proof that changes to discretionary spending will cause underfunding to our veterans.
Stewart is either ignorant of the situation or is attempting to find an excuse for why Republicans are blocking the bill instead of venting his anger on those who rightfully deserve it, like Sen. Chuck Schumer for breaking his commitment.
Although Stewart and Posobiec’s exchange is tense, eventually the two come together to endorse the bill.
Posobiec shared another video , later, that showed the two talking in a much more subdued tone. That’s how it ought to have been from the start, but it’s easier to characterize your opponents as enemies than it is to truly listen to what they have to say.
“Yes, sir,” said Stewart, “I lost my temper a little bit. I felt like I was being trolled and I realized that the important thing is we just gotta get this done for these guys and get them over the finish line to get the healthcare they need.”
We can make this bill a reality for every victim of the burn pits https://t.co/JQhVz6LESQ
