Chairman of the House Judiciary Committee Jerry Nadler appeared weak and on the verge of passing out at a presser Friday in Manhattan
At one point as Mayor de Blasio is speaking, there's a commotion and people flock to help Nadler, who seemed weak and pale
When de Blasio asks Nadler if he was OK, Nadler can be heard responding with a faint "no" before putting his hand over his face

Text for the twitter-deprived:
Appreciate everyone's concern. Was very warm in the room this morning, was obviously dehydrated and felt a bit ill. Glad to receive fluids and am feeling much better. Thank you for your thoughts.

(2,399 posts)My own (old) heart skips a beat when I hear news like this. Nadler is brilliant. And NEEDED! Like RBG.
But the second thought I have is that Rush Limbaugh and Hannity and McConnell and the rest of those assholes keep breathing in and out and fucking up not just our country, but the world. They live on... instead of getting their karmic just rewards.
I know I'm a bad person for wanting karma to go bite them on the ass and leave Nadler and RBG alone. Proud of it, too.
