Adam Schiff @RepAdamSchiff

It will be said of House Republicans,

When they found they lacked the courage to confront the most dangerous and unethical president in American history,

They consoled themselves by attacking those who did.

Matt Gaetz and his Coalition of the Stupid stormed impeachment proceedings to 'demand transparency' — except that's not what it's really about

This is following Dear Leader's wish that they 'act tough.' They broke both rules and laws. It's not a good sign.

'Gaetz and His Goosesteppers' should be censured and expelled from the House or at least given a juice box and a timeout.

A matter of opinion. It was all a distraction to push Taylor's testimony out of the headlines. You doubtless consider that an admirably excellent tactic.

It is broader than that. It gives flesh to the republican assertion of "behind closed doors"...a process which is afraid of public scrutiny and subjected to heavy media manipulation.

It's an amplification of such argument.

Importantly also it provides energy for the base and is going to make it harder for repub politicians (especially senators) to act up independently.

The repubs seem to find the right guy for this political play. Gaetz is a free flow speaker, not a bumbler.
