Tyrant Schiff Repeatedly Refuses To Allow Congresswoman To Speak, When She Finally Does She Kills It

Adam Schiff has been on a huge power trip during this entire impeachment hearing. He feels like he has this immutable control over the entire impeachment process. He probably thinks that gavel is really Thor’s hammer.

During the impeachment hearing on Friday, Rep. Devin Nunes recognized and was yielding his time to another representative, Ms. Stefanik.

Shifty didn’t like that so he decided not to let her speak. This entire time people have been able to recognize one another and give their time to them, but this time he wouldn’t allow it to happen.

Here is how the exchange went down:

Nunes: I know Ms. Stefanik you had a few quick questions for the ambassador.  I yield to you Ms. Stefanik.

Stefanik: Thank you, Mr. Nunes. Ambassador Yovanovitch–

Schiff: The gentlewoman will suspend. The gentlewoman will suspend.

Stefanik: What is the interruption for this time?

Schiff: The gentlewoman will suspend, you’re not recognized. Mr. Nunes–

Nunes: I just recognized Ms. Stefanik.

Schiff: Under the House Res. 660 you are not allowed to yield time except to counsel.

Stefanik: The ranking member to another member of Congress.

Schiff: Nope, nope. That is not accurate.

Nunes: You’re gagging the gentlewoman from New York?

Stefanik: That is accurate. Ambassador Yovanovitch I want to thank you for being here today–

Schiff: The gentlewoman will suspend, you’re not recognized.

Stefanik: This is the fifth time that you have elected members of Congress, duly-elected members of Congress–

Schiff: The gentlewoman will suspend.

Nunes: Mr. Chair, we control the time and customary to this committee, who ever controls the time can yield to whoever they wish. If we have members of Congress who have a few questions, it seems appropriate that we would let Ms. Stefanik ask her question.

Schiff: Mr. Nunes, you or minority counsel are recognized.

Take another look at how tyrannical he is. He’s not even allowing members of Congress to state a point of order!

When Stefanik was finally able to speak she knocked it out of the park.
