Madam Speaker, let's take a look at what Democrats are ignoring so they can censure a conservative Republican because he posted a cartoon they found offensive and which he took down himself: More than two million illegal aliens crossing our border this calendar year; Attorney General Garland deploying Federal agents to spy on parents; Inflation driving gas prices up; Everybody's Thanksgiving dinner is going up; A vax mandate that is clearly unconstitutional; A bankruptcy-inducing, bureaucracy-bloating spending bill by Democrats; Supply chain in shambles; Democrats consistently ignoring calls to violence and anti-Semitic statements of their own; Foreign policy embarrassments; Americans languishing behind in Taliban-controlled Afghanistan; China, Iran, North Korea on the move. Yeah, we have been ignoring those things. But we are here today. I lived in Japan for several years. I speak Japanese. I read and write Japanese. This is an anime. It is ``Shingeki no Kyojin'', highly popular, stylized, intended to demonstrate the alienation people feel, particularly young people in their cultures. Now, does anime have violence? Yes. It is highly stylized violence. It is not meant to induce people to violence. The SPEAKER pro tempore. The time of the gentleman has expired.

Mr. Speaker, I yield myself such time as I may consume. I am glad we agreed finally on the second thing, and that is we are going around in circles. I want to make a couple quick points as I round the barn one more time. The most CRAs done…
