The senator who challenged a hearing witness to a brawl in the U.S. Capitol said only "political correctness" stopped him from following through on his threat.
During the hearing, Mullin got into a back-and-forth with Teamsters President Sean O’Brien, in which Mullin challenged him to a fight and O'Brien expressed his willingness to take him up on it.
During the Fox segment, host Sean Hannity asked Mullin why society has become so "woke" that it no longer allows people to settle their differences with fist-fights, to which Mullin replied that it's due to "political correctness."
