Rep. Louie Gohmert, a member of the House Judiciary Committee, infuriated Chairman Jerrold Nadler during Monday's impeachment hearing into President Trump, after he appeared to suggest a counsel for the Democrats had given money to members of the party in order to serve in a role of both witness and questioner.
The Judiciary Committee Democrats' counsel Barry Berke, a high-powered defense lawyer, was seated on the dais near Nadler, D-N.Y., asking questions of Republican counsel Stephen Castor in a move that Gohmert, R-Texas, called "unprecedented."
Rep. Mike Johnson, R-La., initially interrupted Berke's questioning to make a formal "parliamentary inquiry" to Nadler about what Berke was being allowed to do.
Instead, Nadler slammed his gavel and told Johnson he was unable to make an inquiry. "Mr. Chairman, what is this?" Johnson asked, looking incredulously at the chairman as the New Yorker slammed his gavel.

ALL this KANGAROO COURT Bull needs to be Taken from
Congress since it is NOT a Court & should Not be allowed
to Get Around the Real Court Rules in the Law !!!
They have too much power & want their cake & eat it too !!!
They get to ignore lawful court rules & procedure & this
should be ILLEGAL !!!
Congress should only have EQUAL power to the other 2
branches of Govt & Not have More than the other 2 !!!
Oversight Means they get to Ignore Court & Law rules and
Skirt the law & the courts for their Political agenda !! Wrong!
Take Oversight powers AWAY and make them Equal / Not
Above the Law !!!!!
So true, they even had their noses in sports a few years ago
I saw that. I loved it!
