About 30 House Republicans led by Matt Gaetz - of course, lol - attempted to force entry Wednesday into the closed-door hearing where Laura Cooper, deputy assistant secretary of defense, is scheduled to testify in the impeachment inquiry into Donald's dealings with Ukraine.

The Republican coup alleges that they are being shut out of the impeachment process but there are Republicans on the three panels conducting the investigation — the House Intelligence, Oversight and Foreign Affairs Committees — that are present and able to ask questions at every hearing. Lol. Donald really fired them up with his taunting.

House Republicans brought their phones into the secure area of the Capitol where Laura Cooper was set to testify in the impeachment inquiry, marking a major breach of protocol. The space is known as a SCIF -- a sensitive compartmented information facility -- because it's a secure room used for discussing and handling classified information. Bringing your cell phone in is a huge offense. These folks need to learn how to think before acting for a change. Even Lindsey Graham was able to acknowledge the magnitude of the nuttiness on this one, calling the Republicans out on it.

Trump impeachment: Republicans cause chaos as they storm inquiry into president
Police are now conducting a security sweep of the room

This act on the part of the House Republicans is probably not helpful to their cause.
Nope, not helpful at all, and next time they do this I am sure they will get slapped, hard.

I would tend to disagree. I am willing to bet this show of fighting (perceived) injustice will more than fuel undying Trump supporters into believing they hold a righteous cause. ... Just as I fear that if impeachment went all the way through and Trump was removed from office, there'd actually be enough crazies out there who would grab their guns in retaliation, believing to be in a righteous position to try starting another U.S. civil war.

"So please, absent yourself." Lmbo.

They treated exactly as they should have for that lulzy stunt, like a theatrical child in a grown man's body. Gaetz is an embarrassment.
