A new video shows a top Democrat senator falling on the Senate floor during a vote on Wednesday. The Democrat senator was quickly helped back to her feet by Republican senators in the chamber.
In a Thursday video shared by The Blaze on X, formerly Twitter, Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) can be seen falling to the ground of the Senate floor during a voting session. In the video, Warren appears to be trying to sit or lean on a desk before suddenly falling backwards, knocking over the desk, and falling on the ground.
After Warren fell to the ground, Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas) and Sen. Susan Collins (R-Maine) quickly rushed over to help her. In the video, Cruz can be seen offering Warren a hand as she rose back up to her feet. The video also shows Sen. John Barrasso (R-Wyo.) and Sen. Rand Paul (R-Ky.) walking over to the Democrat senator to potentially provide assistance.
The Daily Caller reported that the Democrat senator did not appear to have suffered any harm from her fall on the Senate floor on Wednesday. The outlet noted that Warren’s fall took place as the Senate was voting on a pair of resolutions that would have blocked U.S. military sales to Israel.

According to The Hill, Wednesday’s vote on the sale of U.S. weapons to Israel saw a record number of Democrat senators vote in favor of blocking weapon sales to Israel. The outlet noted that while the pair of resolutions brought by Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) received record support from Democrats, the resolutions were opposed by every Republican senator as well as 20 Democrat senators.
The Hill reported that the Senate voted 70-27 against a resolution Sanders brought to block $675 million in U.S. weapons sales to Israel, while the Senate voted 73-24 against a resolution that would have blocked the sale of tens of thousands of automatic rifles.
