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.”

    It was a Democrat caught stating the obvious, not a Republican caught admitting the obvious.

    Anyone else feel like the article really didn’t want to mention that part?

      Honestly, I wish more news sites would refrain from naming party affiliation. It forces people to think of the content of the statements first.

        Content is lost without context.

        “Eat your dick” means something very different if you’re sitting in front of a pudding.

      Was it a democratic though?? I don’t think it was. It mentions a conversation from someone to a democrat, but with no context as to why. Then says “it’s unclear who” actually had the hot mic.

      Anyway, it’s a garbage article. Although the headline of the article and this post are different too so that may have thrown us off.
