3. I would give THIS a thousand recommends, if i could

[montanacowboy]

4. Way to Go!!!!!!!!!!!!

Shut the Bastard off. Gaetz is scum of the earth

[FoxNewsSucks]

5. I don't think it was Nadler

While that piece of human waste Gaetz deserves to be cut off, that sounded like it was either the pool feed ending or one of Fox "News" famous edits. All sound was cut off, not just asshole Gaetz.

But I'm sure all the fox shows will play that and tell their sheep how "rude" Nadler was to poor widdle Matt

9. C&L says it was Nadler

6. Elections have consequences....

It's a bitch being in the minority, isn't it? Imagine how the Repubs would have killed this investigation if they had the majority in the House.

[GoCubsGo]

11. We don't have to imagine.

At least not those of us who remember 2001-2006, when the republicans held the White House and both houses of Congress. We saw how they behaved back then. This is nothing compared to that.

[dmr]

38. Yup, I remember one time in particular of Sensenbrenner doing it

I forget to whom, and what it was about, but I can still see it in my mind's eye.

Sensenbrenner and his cohorts were being horrible assholes.

Not only were the mikes turned off, he had the lights turned off, as well.

Yeah, I was yelling at my TV that day.

[orleans]

45. oh god, i remember that

but i can't remember what the meeting was about...
maybe i'll google ...

i don't think this was time with the lights but i found this on bradblog

or maybe it was?? (from rolling stone)
"The GOP’s “take that, bitch” approach to governing has been taken to the greatest heights by the House Judiciary Committee. The committee is chaired by the legendary Republican monster James Sensenbrenner Jr., an ever-sweating, fat-fingered beast who wields his gavel in a way that makes you think he might have used one before in some other arena, perhaps to beat prostitutes to death. Last year, Sensenbrenner became apoplectic when Democrats who wanted to hold a hearing on the Patriot Act invoked a little-known rule that required him to let them have one.

“Naturally, he scheduled it for something like 9 a.m. on a Friday when Congress wasn’t in session, hoping that no one would show,” recalls a Democratic staffer who attended the hearing. “But we got a pretty good turnout anyway.”

"Sensenbrenner kept trying to gavel the hearing to a close, but Democrats again pointed to the rules, which said they had a certain amount of time to examine their witnesses. When they refused to stop the proceedings, the chairman did something unprecedented: He simply picked up his gavel and walked out.

“He was like a kid at the playground,” the staffer says. And just in case anyone missed the point, Sensenbrenner shut off the lights and cut the microphones on his way out of the room."

7. Can you summarize for those of us

that can't watch video at work?

[CatWoman]

8. From the hearing this morning, when Barr didn't show up

Nadler was trying to adjourn and Gaetz started whining about "parlimentary issues"

So Nadler had his mic cut, got up and left the room.

[Tanuki]

12. Thanks for the recap! Nt

[dixiegrrrrl]

24. I thank you also.

It was all over and done with before I got online.

[Sugarcoated]

10. GOOD JOB NADLER

FUCK those LYING NAZIS

[mountain grammy]

13. K&R

Shut down the KGOP.

[trueblue2007]

14. Shut up[ you GOP Gaetz. You offer no good information to the committee. Remove him !!!!

[calimary]

41. But before you go, Gaetz, could you elaborate on all those DUIs?

I heard you had six... or was it seven?

[Control-Z]

44. Really?

That's like a pre-1990s thing. Since then it's been straight to jail for a DUI, first time. He doesn't look old enough to have gotten away with more than one.

[Grammy23]

15. Gaetz is a weasel. He is used to grandstanding and blathering on.

He deserved to get his mic cut off. The look on his face was priceless. What happened to him needs to happen to the rest of those worms working for tRump. Cut ‘em off.

[Duppers]

16. Excellent! K&R

A taste of their own tactics.

[murielm99]

17. Excellent.

This is a start. Subpoena Barr. Throw him in jail if he does not comply with the subpoena.

[DinahMoeHum]

18. Gaetz had it coming to him. . .

. . .just sayin'

[Paladin]

19. That's the treatment that shithead Gaetz should regularly receive.

Gaetz is yet another radical conservative who is one step away from wearing an SS uniform in public.

[Clarity2]

21. Oh snap

Its these kinds of moments that oddly keep me sane.

[SunSeeker]

22. Good. Gaetz wasn't who was supposed to testify today, Barr was.

The GOP can go fuck themselves.

[yaesu]

23. I imagine fake fox news spent an hour crying about it. nt

[ck4829]

50. LOL

[cp]

25. Delicious

[Perseus]

26. Matt Gaetz is most probably the least intelligent person in government

I don't know maybe there is another one who we haven't heard, although if we have not heard of him/her that makes him/her more intelligent than this guy. He just likes to be seen on TV, he has no substance and when confronted his lips go into contortions...Why Floridians vote for that guy is a mystery, although how Floridians vote is a mystery anyway. Talk about a State that likes to shoot its foot every election period.

[sop]

35. I believe Louie Gohmert holds that distinction

Without a doubt Gaetz is a goober, and that's why he was elected to represent his fellow goobers in Florida's 1st Congressional district, the armpit of Florida. But Gohmert is the dumbest human being in Congress.

[RVN VET71]

54. I second that belief.

But Gaetz is more deplorably sickening than Gohmert who is so dumb he's clownish. Gaetz is an arrogant sociopath, IMHO, and deserves as much humiliation as the Dems can dump on him.

[Afromania]

27. Either bring real facts to the table or stfu.

Its time, republicans add nothing to these proceedings. They offer no facts, points of interest, or relevant insights to the matter at hand. Its either grandstanding, stonewalling or licking each other asses. We should no longer humor these human jackals when they set up to do nothing except kill reasonable discussion.

[ck4829]

49. +1

[pangaia]

28. Gaetz is in the class of Jim Jordan(?) dick heads.

[sop]

36. At least Gaetz wears a suit jacket during congressional hearings.

Jordan's constituents really should create a GoFundMe site to buy the guy a couple of cheap off-the-rack blazers, maybe even a new suit for special occasions.

[samnsara]

29. these guys have never had be be accountable for their outrageous behavior...

..these had their own come to Jesus moment

[Hulk]

30. Perfect reaction to dRumpf's water boy.

This cheesy piece of rotten shit is embarrassing to Florida and to the entire country.

Way to handle this little butt licking bitch....no acknowledgement, no contention.

[Tarc]

31. What's the status of the Florida Bar investigation into his witness tapering & intimidation?

I can't find any sources discussing it past early March.

[SergeStorms]

33. If you were going to give the state of Florida an enema...

Matt Gaetz's district is where you'd stick the tube. Actually, the tube would be placed firmly in Gaetz's big, stupid mouth.

[lsewpershad]

34. Good

[Owl]

37. Fabulous!

[BigOleDummy]

39. YES!

We need MORE of this to happen. Rep. Nadler has just gotten my whole hearted respect and hopefully many more than me. We HAVE to start standing up to these assholes. We cannot keep playing defense, the stakes are too high.

[prodigitalson]

40. Hahahaha

Fuck that guy

[drmeow]

42. Paybacks a bitch, ain't it

The GOP have treated the Dems with mind numbing disrespect - they deserve to be silenced

[InAbLuEsTaTe]

43. K&R!!

Bernie & Elizabeth 2020!!!
Welcome to the revolution!!!

[RhodeIslandOne]

46. Which DUI was this from?

?width=380&height=380&rect=330x330&offset=60x54



This clown is entitled trash, and a Roger Stone protege. He should go to jail.

[smirkymonkey]

47. Ugh! One of the most punchable faces in Congress.

Just looking at him makes me want to

[tavernier]

52. Those eyes definitely register a 60

on the IQ scale.

[ck4829]

48. Nice

[tymorial]

51. Gaetz clearly doesnt handle being shut down well

He was seething and that makes this PRICELESS.


to Nadler

[northoftheborder]

53. The fact that this clown is ranking member on Judicial.....

.....doesn't say much for the rest of their side of committee
