A hearing that was supposed to center around a resolution about Attorney General Merrick Garland devolved into chaos and ...
I'd like to know if any of the Democrats on this committee are employing Judge Mirshawn's daughter.
Please tell me what that has to do with Mary Garland.
Is she a porn star?
Goldman. That's right. He's advising. Okay.
Do you know what we're here for? You know we're here about AG.
I don't think you know what you're here for.
Well, you don't want to I'm not talking about... I guess you feel something terrible.
I think your fake eyelashes are messing up the two of you.
No, ain't nothing.
Hold on.
Order, Mr. Chairman. That's beneath even you, Ms. Green. Would you get an order on your committee?
I do have a point of order, and I would like to move to take down Ms. Green's words. That is absolutely unacceptable. How dare you attack the physical appearance of another person.
Are your feelings hurt? Move her words down.
Oh, oh, girl, baby, girl.
Oh, really? Don't even play. Baby, girl, I don't think.
We are going to move and we're going to take your words down. I second that motion.
I'm just curious, just to better understand your ruling. If someone on this committee then starts talking about somebody's bleach blonde, bad-built, butch body That would not be engaging in personalities, correct?
A what now?
Chairman, I make a motion to strike those words.
I don't think that's a part of it.
I'm trying to find clarification on what quality- Chairman, motion to strike those words.
I have no idea what you just said.
We're not going to do this. Look, you guys earlier literally just said- You just voted to do it.
I'm trying to get clarification.
Look it, calm down. No, because this is what you all do.
I'm trying to get clarification. You're not recognized.
I can't hear you with your yelling. Calm down. Can you please calm down? No.
Don't tell me to calm down because you all talk noise and then you can't take it.
You're out of control. Look, chairman, can we send her on the break for five minutes? Because if I come and talk about her, you all are going to have a problem. Mr. Chairman.
All right. Sure.
