This hearing was scheduled for 2 PM EST today but has been postponed until further notice according to the House Judiciary Committee website.
One optimistic explanation is that we have ALL HANDS ON DECK EMERGENCY to deal with the newly-revealed extreme criminal conduct of the President and those in his inner circle. Let's hope for and expect an eventful week.
The emoluments hearing will take place eventually, trust me.

EDIT: I'll keep an eye out for this hearing and try to let everyone know. I admit I'm disappointed--but let's see what unfolds this week (or unravels). Maybe the loss of this hearing will be worth it in the long run.
