TL;DR Summary

GOP Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene was barred from speaking further in a House Homeland Security Committee hearing after calling Department of Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas a "liar." Greene also accused Democratic Rep. Eric Swalwell of having an intimate relationship with a Chinese operative without evidence. The outburst took up considerable time during the hearing and threatened to overshadow Mayorkas's testimony. The panel's Republican chairman ruled that Greene could not speak the rest of the hearing. GOP lawmakers on the committee complained they had to waste valuable hearing time over the dust-up.
