They are TERRIFIED of what their constituents will learn about them, and their cult leader.

This goes beyond anything I've ever thought these idiots would do! They just compromised a secure facility where the INTELLIGENCE COMMITTEE was holding a hearing.

that's what exactly what they are.

173 Repigs stand behind they wanted no part of it. Could those be 173 yes votes for impeachment?

They may not all vote for articles of impeachment, but at least they didn't compromise national security to kiss TrumPutin's ass.

During the Benghazi hearings, he said that there was a reason to hold closed hearings to gather information.

“The notion that you can withhold information and documents from Congress no matter whether you are the party in power or not in power is wrong,” Gowdy said in 2012, as a House panel moved to hold then-Attorney General Eric H. Holder Jr. in contempt for failing to cooperate with its probe of a botched gunrunning operation. “Respect for the rule of law must mean something, irrespective of the vicissitudes of political cycles.”

But that means that one dude tweeted from INSIDE the room, right? And how would staff outside the room know what was going on inside the room? I'm not following the OP either...
