July 25, 2019: Chip Roy storms out of House Oversight hearing

Roy became angry in a July House Oversight hearing on White House work communications sent via personal email and cellphones, in violation of federal laws governing White House recordkeeping. When Rep. Gerald Connolly pushed back on his criticism of the committee’s subpoenas of Ivanka Trump and Jared Kushner, Roy began complaining loudly about drug cartels on the Mexican border and then angrily stormed out of the room. The committee voted 23-16 to approve the subpoenas.
