Controversies
In early November 2021, Gosar tweeted an edited anime video depicting him attacking Joe Biden and killing Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, which was faced with immense backlash from liberals.[2] The Democratically-controlled House of Representatives would use this as a flimsy excuse to censure him in 2021 in order to limit his power.
