"You don't see that as racist? We need you desperately to lead." That's Congresswoman Madeleine Dean in part of an exchange with House Speaker Mike Johnson, captured by CNN. The Montgomery County Democrat criticized the Republican speaker for not calling out the "racist, bigoted" AI-generated video tweeted by President Donald Trump. She raised the issue during a back-and-forth with Johnson over the main issues prompting the government shutdown -- Medicaid cuts and expiring Obamacare tax credits. The speaker told Dean the president's post "wasn't my style." The video was taken from a news conference after the president met on Monday with all four congressional leaders. It overlaid a cartoon sombrero and moustache on House Democratic Leader Hakeem Jeffries, who is Black, and altered Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer's speech.
