To be perfectly honest, there wasn’t much to heckle him about….until….
At the end of Congressman Brian Babin’s softball interview at Rice University Babin had to make the mistake of lying to the small crowd and he was called out for it. It was ugly. Babin was defending the NAZI saluting Elon Musk and DOGE claiming they had found millions of people over the age of 115 collecting Social Security checks. (It’s not true.)
A number of groans came from the audience with someone in the front row (me) yelling “That is not true Congressman!” A number of people chimed in calling him out on his stupid comment. A disabled individual went off on a tangent about going to Mars causing a problem for security. I continued with comments towards Babin such as “Your boss is a liar, you don’t have to be one too.” Others in the small audience were vocal and not happy that he resorted to what Republicans are good at, lying. The moderator then ended the event.
As Babin was leaving the podium I asked if he would come to his district and meet with his constituents. His response was “I’m not going to do that”. Babin has been in office for over 10 years and has never met with his constituents besides with the business community.
Fucking coward.

I was there also and it was hard to sit quietly and listen to babin lie. He also claimed that a Lunar landing was about National Security and he was adamant about it – that is also a lie.
I also spoke to the Rice University moderator and made it clear that we recognized that Rice University (which he was representing) was accepting lies without any comment. The Administration of Rice University should be ashamed.
