I am completely obsessed with finding out who is writing the Republican interventions, because clearly it isn’t any of the members. Can some enterprising journalist please find out?

I am also still obsessed with which comic book villain Greg Steube is

Matt Gaetz is too stupid to read, and keeps losing track of the script, & there are weird pauses while he tries to find his place, b/c obviously someone has just sent it to him & he didn’t write any of his jokes himself. And just to be clear, that’s what he’s reading – – jokes.

Doug Collins:

Matt Gaetz, reading an interview with Hunter Biden on his history of drug use -- again via a script he didn't write -- is grotesque.

Hank Johnson dials down the clown volume. Is it ever ok for a president to seek foreign interference in an election campaign? He is met by silence

This, by the way, is why Hank Johnson runs my post apocalyptic bar.

Matt Gaetz has nothing left to say so he's back to HAVE YOU HEARD THE THING ABOUT HILLARY CLINTON?!??

Sheila Jackson Lee:

John Ratcliffe:

Jim Jordan looks like he had a late night last night.

Guys I would be very curious who gave Gohmert the FDR/Stalin conversation information, about FDR agreeing the Soviets could have the Baltics after WWII, because I only know a few people who referred it regularly, and it’s none of the people he talks to.

This is a huge red flag.

And to be clear: FDR was gah gah for Stalin, without Churchill we would all have been doomed, and we have a lot — A LOT — to make up for when it comes to abandoning the Balts.

Swalwell please stop talking to the camera.

Ken Buck is now arguing it is the duty of all republicans to obstruct congress so POTUS did nothing wrong 👍

“Congress is an embarrassment” says the sitting congressman

Nadler is now losing his mind re obstruction of Congress argument from Buck — rightly.

Does Johnson with the hairdo use rouge?

Johnson is trying to use the transitive property of scumbaggery to exonerate Trump but the math just doesn’t hold up

I literally understand nothing Doug Collins is saying.

Reschenthaler is arguing that it’s fine to commit war crimes because then “warfighters” can focus on killing or something

Steve Chabot is on his 3rd round of reciting the great victories of the 5 year plan.

Ken Buck is now reading "dear comrade Stalin" text messages.

The existential question of whether losing Mississippi is a bad thing will haunt me.

McClintock: I'm bored!! This is so boring! Can't we put it out of its misery! We're all repeating ourselves!

Jim Jordan:

No chance Reschenthaler wrote "opined" for himself.

Members now:

Neguse has been great in this committee room.

I fell asleep after too much happy hour and cannot believe this hearing is still on.
