Punches Were Thrown! Turkey's Legislature Devolved Into Utter Chaos Over a Proposal to Expand Executive Power

The legislative chambers devolved into such a chaotic scene that punches were thrown between hundreds of people. Aren’t we glad that our government representatives always get along so well (looking at you, Aaron Burr)?
