Such was the case when Rep. Paul Gosar (R-AZ) posted an anime cartoon of himself assassinating colleague Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY). Expelling Gosar from Congress would take all Democratic members to vote for it and 70 Republicans. Thus far only one Republican has been willing to denounce what Gosar did. Many also noted that this isn't the first time Gosar has casually talked about assassination. It's unclear if there will be a vote to censure Gosar for the behavior.
