Adam Schiff Had To Consult With Sergeant of Arms After Matt Gaetz & GOP Storm Secure Hearing

Matt Gaetz and members of the House GOP stormed Adam Schiff’s secure hearing and demanded that he let the public see what is actually going on.

The GOP stopped the meeting and caused Adam Schiff to actually consult the Sargent at Arms over what to do with the incursion.

“More than two dozen House conservatives rail on Schiff and the process outside the closed impeachment proceedings, and have now entered the SCIF – and they are bound to be kicked out bc they don’t serve on the three committees conducting the probe. It is being led by Matt Gaetz,” CNN’s Manu Raju reported.

“Roughly two dozen House conservatives stormed the secure hearing room – known as the SCIF – to rail on the process, delaying the Cooper testimony. Connolly said that Louie Gohmert and Bradley Byrne were yelling in the room and railing on what they call a sham process.”

“The conservatives walked into hearing room with their electronics, Connolly said, which is prohibited in the room. Mike Conaway of Texas collected the electronics,” the report continued.

“Laura Cooper’s testimony has been delayed because of the disruption; Schiff is consulting with the sergeant of arms.”

The Daily Caller also reported that on Wednesday House Republicans briefly shut down a closed-door meeting by storming the room where lawmakers were questioning a defense department official involving the impeachment inquiry into President Trump.

More than dozen of Republican lawmakers gathered outside of the private meeting room and told reporters that they would try to enter the closed-door deposition regarding the official impeachment inquiry into the President. The House intelligence, foreign affairs and oversight committees are leading these proceedings after allegations that President Trump asked Ukrainian officials to investigate former Vice President Joe Biden and his son Hunter.

The incident caused a delay in proceedings, Democratic Virginia Rep. Gerry Connolly said according to Rachel Bade, a Congress reporter for the Washington Post. The Democrats were “consulting Sargent at Arms,” she tweeted. Defense department official Laura Cooper was testifying about allegations that the U.S. withheld military aid from Ukraine as President Trump was allegedly trying to get officials to look into Biden.
