Sen. Elizabeth Warren collapses on the Senate floor as Republicans extend bipartisan aid during the Israel vote deliberation
In an unexpected turn of events, Senator Elizabeth Warren, D-Mass., experienced a fall during a vote on two resolutions related to military sales to Israel on Wednesday.
Footage shows Warren attempting to sit on a desk, but falling backwards and tipping over the desk. Her Republican colleagues, including Sens. Ted Cruz of Texas and Susan Collins of Maine, rushed to help her up. Senators Rand Paul of Kentucky and John Barrasso of Wyoming were among those who offered assistance. Senator Ted Cruz gave his hand to Sen. Warren to help her up after the fall.
Despite the fall, Warren voted in favor of the resolutions proposed by Sen. Bernie Sanders, I-Vt., to block military sales to Israel. Sen. Sanders is a harsh critic of Israel's ongoing war against Hamas in the Gaza Strip.
It is worth noting that there are no publicly known or reported incidents of Senator Warren having any falls either in the Senate or the White House. A comprehensive search of biographies and news sources does not mention any such events throughout her political career or public appearances.
The resolutions were a response to Israel's ongoing war against Hamas in the Gaza Strip. Every Republican voted against the resolutions, while the fall incident did not involve any senators outside of the Senate floor.
Fox News Digital reached out to Warren's office for comment, but no response has been received at the time of this writing.
In a separate incident, former President Joe Biden had a slip and fell during the commencement ceremony at the US Air Force Academy in 2023. However, this incident did not involve any assistance from senators.
In her career, Warren has primarily served as a U.S. senator from Massachusetts since 2013 and has held various roles such as a law professor and advisor. This unfortunate incident, while unexpected, does not seem to affect her commitment to her duties and her stance on political issues.
- The fall incident during the Senate vote on military sales to Israel was not related to any general-news event or accident that has been reported in Warren's political career or public appearances so far.
- Despite the fall, Senator Elizabeth Warren's voting record on political issues, particularly her stance against military sales to Israel, remains consistent with her usual commitment.
