Don't get me wrong...I know exactly who and what this assclown is, and that's exactly why the Republicans changed the "seating assignments."
I'm not going to be able to watch this. I can't watch Republicans yelling "POINT OF ORDER!," even if their objections will be collected for votes at the end.
I can't watch Jordan, I can't watch Nunes. I can't watch.
I'll get whatever recaps I need from MSNBC and the news outlets on Twitter.
I can't watch Jordan squat, hold his hand under his ass, and throw what he's collected at our democracy.
Now, if Nunes and Jordan try that Wednesday, those points of order will be piled up and voted on at the end of the hearing, allowing the witnesses to get started sooner.
Also, the first 90 minutes of the hearing are given over to Schiff and then Nunes, equally divided, for questions, without interruption, rather than just the five-minute rounds that other committees use. This will give Schiff time to draw out Taylor and his predecessor, Marie Yovanovitch, who was ousted from Kyiv after complaints from Trump and Giuliani.
Also, Schiffs counsel will be allowed to ask questions at the front end of the hearing, correcting a mistake from the Lewandowski hearing, when the Judiciary counsel was allowed to ask questions only at the end. That portion of the hearing revealed new facts from Lewandowski, but because it came at the end of a marathon session, it drew little notice.
