Florida Republican Rep. Matt Gaetz, who has earned a reputation as a guy who enjoys shaking things up on Capitol Hill, attempted to attend a deposition on Monday related to the Democrats’ impeachment inquiry and promptly got booted out by the Democrat-run committees who say he had no business being there. His exclusion from the deposition, Gaetz says, is yet more proof that House Intelligence Committee Chair Adam Schiff (D-CA) is simultaneously running a “kangaroo court” and a “clown show” propped up by his “lies.”
As reported by multiple outlets, including The Hill, Gaetz, a member of the House Judiciary Committee, tried to sit in on the House Intelligence, Oversight, and Foreign Affairs committees’ closed-door interview with Fiona Hill, Trump’s former top Russia aide, Monday but was blocked from attending because he is not a member of one of the three committees conducting the inquiry — a decision the House parliamentarian reportedly stood by.
