A hot mic captured a lawmaker labelling the heated House Oversight Committee’s impeachment inquiry hearing into alleged corruption committed by the Bidens as “Jurassic Park,” encapsulating the hearing’s devolution into chaos.

An apparently frustrated GOP-led committee heard testimony from a variety of witnesses who have more or less confirmed their so-far failed efforts to support evidence of any corruption.

Rep James Comer, the committee chair, told Dan Goldman, a Democrat on the panel, that he was “out of order,” banged his gavel, and said, “We are in suspension here until the clerk comes so we can take the vote that your side of the aisle requested.”

    Your MAGATS Were So Preoccupied With Whether Or Not They Could, They Didn’t Stop To Think If They Should

      Pshaw, the voters might just be ignorant idiots, buy most of the law makers know full well how dumb this sort of bullshit is - there’s a long tradition of this sort of buffonery that predates maga… The Benghazi hearings was an absolute clown show.

      Granted, there are a few lawmakers that seem to have genuinely drunk the kool-aid and those fucks are scary.
