House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer’s press conference devolved into chaos Wednesday morning when an apparent activist repeatedly interrupted and confronted the Kentucky Republican about his plans to initiate contempt of Congress proceedings against the Clintons.
Comer addressed reporters after Hillary Clinton missed her scheduled deposition in the committee’s Jeffrey Epstein probe.
Minutes after he began talking, however, a man who identified himself as a “citizen reporter” started heckling him and the other Republicans present.
“No, I’m still talking. I’m still talking,” Comer snapped at the man when he first began interrupting his comments.

A few minutes later, when announcing the committee would depose Epstein associate Ghislaine Maxwell, the man began again, prompting Rep. Tim Burchett, R-Tenn., to comment, “Hey, the Cartoon Network called, and they want you to take your job back.”

The protester shot back, “Sir, I’m not paid, you’re paid by the people.”
Comer called for security to come at one point as the protester appeared to shout he was “having a conversation.”
He ended the event by telling the press, “It’s unfortunate this disruptor was here. We’ll be happy to answer questions throughout the day about this.”

He walked close by Comer, even appearing to make physical contact at one point, which prompted Capitol Police officers to separate the man from the GOP lawmakers.
The man appeared to be let off with a warning after police took a photograph of his identification.
