Rep. Brandon Williams (R-NY) was seen on camera threatening a former congressional staffer after the staffer allegedly made inappropriate comments about Williams's family members.

The video, posted by Syracuse University student Luke Radel on X, the platform formerly known as Twitter, shows the congressman pointing his finger at the former staffer and warning him not to "f*** with my family."

“I haven’t done anything,” the former staffer said, looking visibly shaken up.

“You f*** with my family, I’ll end every relationship you have. Every single friend! Do you understand me?” Williams said. “Do you understand me?! You think I don’t know?”

The two were interrupted by someone intervening, prompting Williams to say, "Hey, why don’t you get the police in.” The New York Republican then pushed the camera down and walked away.

The reporter posting the video had framed it as Williams shouting and threatening "his former campaign manager and chief of staff at a holiday charity event," but a spokesman for the congressman had a different explanation of the incident.

"Here is what was omitted from the video: What you are seeing is two former staffers who were fired by the Congressman earlier this year. Both individuals, the one being confronted by the Congressman and the one filming, made rude comments about the female members of the Congressman’s family," Taylor Weyeneth, deputy chief of staff and communications director for Williams, said in a post on X.

"These individuals planted stories with the media and one of them physically shoved the Congressman at a holiday event (edited from the video)," he added.

Weyeneth also warned that the video should serve as a warning to "never go after" Williams, who served as a nuclear submarine officer.

"As a former nuclear submarine officer known for his temperament and poise, tonight should be a lesson to all, never go after this Navy Nuke’s family."
