1. Can the committees just move to another room?

[demmiblue]

5. My uneducated guess would be no...

because said room wouldn't be SCIF compliant.

[OliverQ]

12. Surprised they only have one SCIF.

[50 Shades Of Blue]

2. Time to call their bluff.

[demmiblue]

7. No kidding.

A zip tie for you, and you, and you!

[Qutzupalotl]

3. Committing felonies to own the libs.

[evertonfc]

4. Fight

Have em removed. Americans and your base like a fighter.

[harumph]

6. Sergeant at Arms should arrest Gaetz to set an example

Everyone participating should face censure.

13. Gaetz tried to pretend earlier that he wasn't violating the security protocols:

Get his arse out of there.

8. Reschedule it and then have capital police guarding the doors....

Enough of this shit.

[Mme. Defarge]

9. Not cake?

Times have changed, n’est pas?

[2naSalit]

14. Vraiment... nt

[Garrett78]

10. Hold a press conference explaining due process and slam these childish assholes.

I'd like to see Pelosi in front of cameras explaining that this is what due process in an impeachment inquiry looks like. Private testimony, followed by public testimony, followed by a vote, followed by a trial, followed by a verdict.

And then talk about how Republicans who apparently don't know or care about the law are childishly obstructing due process.

17. I'm sure we'll all be hearing from

Madame Speaker in a short time. I am glad I'm not one of them and I am damned certain that even severely impaired by drugs or alcohol I couldn't be that fucking ignorant.

[bdamomma]

11. This is too

much arrest them all.

[EleanorR]

15. Are all 40 plus republican committee members who were in the room ok with this stunt?

Are any of them speaking up?

[smirkymonkey]

16. Why are they not being physically removed?

The fucking nerve of them! How dare they sit there, eating pizza and mocking the process! Do laws not mean anything any more? If members of the public did such a thing, do you think they would be getting away with it right now? This is pure partisan bullshit and these motherfuckers need to be arrested. God, I hate them all so much, especially Gaetz! One face badly in need of a fist.

18. They should be reminded on the rules governing the secure location, together with the standards

of behavior expected for House members, and these matters should be referred to the Ethics Committee for its recommendation

[FiveGoodMen]

19. In other words, the US has no real laws whatsoever.

[Backseat Driver]

20. Did they bring it in or have it delivered?

Dominos? Papa John's? Pizza Hut? - The certified secure pepperoni? or the deep dish Supreme?

Hope they also confiscated their electronic watches (not all are Apples), button baby cams, flasks with which to wash down the pizza, and exploding cigars?

Waiting for TSA? Put them all on the no-fly list! Make 'em take off their shoes! and let's see each of their x-rays scans! Terrorist pranks are not funny.
