A freshman Republican lawmaker received bipartisan condemnation after he allegedly yelled at a group of high- school-age Senate pages for “defiling” the Capitol on Wednesday. New details shared with NBC News paint an even more disturbing picture of what took place that night.
Rep. Derrick Van Orden, R-Wis., told the teenagers to “get the f--- out” of the rotunda, according to one source who witnessed the interaction and spoke on condition of anonymity. The source described Van Orden's demeanor as “physically aggressive” toward the pages.
The lawmaker was “screaming inches from the pages’ faces” and “shooed” at them with his hands several times, said the source, who described previously unreported details of Van Orden’s behavior.

Both sides were wrong, but when you're the 'senior party', punching down is more wrong

First I would want to know, what constituted the charge of defiling. Have the pages been questioned and why are they not coming forward to NBC news. Lastly we have a hearsay charge by a witness that hides from his statement. My spider sense makes me very suspicious on these accusations and it reinforces my dissatisfaction on the state of our media/news.
