John Rose may never give a more memorable speech on the House floor.<\/p>\n<p>It had nothing to do with anything the Tennessee Republican said on Monday. In fact, anyone watching likely didn\u2019t pay attention to a word. How could they with all that was going on behind him?<\/p>\n<p>It was the young boy sitting behind Rose who had <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=frqXX1-LaNg\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">C-SPAN viewers<\/a> doing a double-take on a rather dull legislative day filled with naming new post offices and other routine measures.<\/p>\n<p>First, the boy looked directly into the camera, smiling from ear to ear. Then he got bored for a bit and appeared to lose his train of thought. But not for long. Out came the tongue. Then came the rolling of the eyes and a shaking of the head, making clear to the world that he was less than impressed with the stodgy <a href=\"https:\/\/www.westernjournal.com\/democrats-go-defense-marjorie-taylor-greenes-questioning-fauci-turns-explosive\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">decorum<\/a> of the House of Representatives.<\/p>\n<p>And then came the hand motions, a sign language of silliness that might have gotten him sent to the principal\u2019s office if he were in school.<\/p>\n<p>Before long, young Guy Rose, the son of the congressman, was a social media star and a new meme \u2014 at age 6. The youngster just graduated from kindergarten last week and is with the congressman for the week. Rep. Rose\u2019s youngest son, Sam, 3, and his wife, Chelsea, are back in Tennessee.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p dir=\"ltr\" lang=\"en\">A child on the House floor while <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/RepJohnRose?\">@repjohnrose<\/a> delivers remarks. <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/HeNY5nNNEI\">pic.twitter.com\/HeNY5nNNEI<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 CSPAN (@cspan) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/cspan\/status\/1797676802208407954?\">June 3, 2024<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>\u201cHe knows something,\u201d Doug Andres, the spokesman for Republican Senate leader Mitch McConnell, tweeted on X with a caption of the young Rose holding his hands in a triangle motion in front of his face.<\/p>\n<div id=\"firefly-poll-container\">\n<p>Should more members of Congress bring their kids to work?<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p>\u201cSo sorry I was slow responding to your email, I was tied up watching this over and over again,\u201d tweeted Aaron Fritschner, the communications director for Democratic Rep.
