House Republicans, led by Rep. Gaetz, literally storm closed impeachment hearings by barging in to a secure facility during a closed-door witness deposition
House Republicans took their impeachment grievances to a more confrontational level on Wednesday, barging in to a secure facility during a closed-door witness deposition and refusing to leave until Democrats held open hearings.
The standoff began shortly after a press conference in the morning, in which GOP members denounced what they called Democrats'"sham" impeachment process—a complaint that they’ve made central to their impeachment pushback. Close to two hours after they first went in, a core group of Republicans remained there, according to a tweet from inside the room sent by Rep. Andy Biggs . The number two House Republican, Rep. Steve Scalise , was with them.
“Each member of Congress represents nearly 710,000 Americans,” said Matt Sparks. “It is their duty and responsibility to see and understand all of the documents that Democrats are referring to in their attempt to remove a duly elected President from office. The current structure is unprecedented, unfair, and undemocratic. Our members are demanding fairness.”
