Fireworks! Impeachment Hearing Explodes Right Out of the Gate as Matt Gaetz and Jerry Nadler Collide
mediaite ^ | 12/09/19 | Ken Meyer

The House Judiciary Committee’s latest hearing on the Donald Trump impeachment inquiry came to a grinding halt when Congressmen Matt Gaetz (R-FL) and Jerry Nadler (D-NY) had a dust-up over the hearing’s proceedings.

The hearing was stopped when Congressman Andy Biggs (R-AZ) accused the Judiciary chairman of breaking House rules and not letting Republicans hold a minority hearing day. Nadler responded to the complaints of Biggs and Ranking Republican Doug Collins (R-GA) by saying their point of order was out of place in today’s hearing, and as he tried to move things along, Gaetz started haranguing the chairman and accusing him of trying to freeze Republicans out of the hearing.

“Nadler looks like a complete bumbling idiot.”

And Gaetz is looking for a superstore. He’s outshining even Jordan on the Judiciary Committee.

‘incel’.

Even spellcheck doesn’t know what it is.

'incel' is a portmanteau (as Wikipedia would say) of the expression "involuntary celibate."

At one point yesterday, the man sitting on Nadler’s right told Nadler to gavel a republican.

You're the only one I know of who caught that! The presumptuous jerk actually had to nudge the dopey Nadler into action. This little princess got to play witness, people's representative, AND committee chair - all in one day - because the hapless dims desperately need help with each of these positions.

...by saying their point of order was out of place...

If I remember my Robert's Rules correctly, a point of order is never out of order.

Your point about Roberts rules of order stating that a point of order is never of order is a point of order that is out of order.

Nadler is as sleazy as they come.

Within the past year or so, a conservative black lady was addressing one of his committees, and he lied about what she had just said on camera. She commented about a stupid decision the committee was about to make, and he maintained she had called the committee members stupid. He has no integrity.

This frustrates me. Gaetz was in absolute control of the fat man’s nads. He should not have let go of them. He should have squeezed until the Nadman screamed for the Sargent at Arms to have Gaetz removed from the chambers. THAT is what should have happened. When a crime is occurring Marquess of Queensberry rules no longer apply. GO TO THE MAT! or go home. Maybe the Pubbies are saving it. I can only hope so.

Yep, a loser too low to for even the most desperate and ugly people to sleep with.

In other words, a lazy, angry, aimless, violent liberal.

I think that is why San Fran Nan wants the Articles written today so they can move it away from Nadler, as he is worse on TV that Shiff

Schiff and Nadler are both politicians with the skills needed to win an election. They should be able to handle a hearing without looking like corrupt morons. The reason their show is going so badly for both is not the actors, it's the script. It doesn't matter who reads the lines if there is no story in the play they are performing. Take the show on the road, whether in front of the full Congress for a vote or to the US Senate for a trial, and it won't be any better.

I think you are correct about that.

Yeah, I think I first heard that term during Gamergate a couple years back.

There's a new one to me that I just read last week: Groyper.

Not exactly sure what it is, other than it's tossed around along with accusations of anti-Semitism. I came across it reading about a furious battle amongst Michelle Malkin, Charlie Kirk's group, Ben Shapiro, and some guy named Nicholas Fuentes. Nasty fracas.
