“The Republican Party has become a deranged group of political fanatics,” a Twitter user said in response to Speier.

“They’ve descended away from the principles of the constitution and into political fanaticism. Their deranged fanaticism is dangerous and it is making the domestic terrorist threat grow in our country.”
