Protesters used a slur created by President-elect Donald Trump during the 2016 presidential campaign while interrupting a nomination hearing for his would-be secretary of state.
During Sen. Marco Rubio's (R-FL) Wednesday confirmation hearing before the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, Rubio spoke about the end of the Second World War when the outburst occurred.
"And we've had forever wars ever since!" a protester shouted. "Little Marco, keep your hands off our country!"
