1. It sure looked like it was him, either way it was hilarious.

[C_U_L8R]

2. He who denied it supplied it?

[greyl]

3. That didn't happen on Swalwell's mike.

Even though I'd really like to make a "pass the torch" joke.

(I'm not yet certain it happened at all.)

27. Sounds like a fart overlay to me

Now we’ll have fake farts to go along with fake news, which is unfair to farts.

33. @DevinNunes (DEVIN NUNES) IS THE PERSON WHO FARTED.

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

4. He who smelt it dealt it?

[Docreed2003]

14. The first to make a rhyme committed the crime

Lmao, my ten year old son taught me that one

[Polybius]

20. Whoever denied it supplied it

[panader0]

5. I used to have a little fart machine toy.

You could put it in your pocket and push the button and then just stare at the
other people. Hilarious it was. 10 different fart noises.

8. There are many apps for smartphones that do the same thing

Even dial tones

[PJMcK]

26. Fart dial tones?!

Of course.

[RainCaster]

32. It is a wonderful world we live in

[renate]

6. Hardball's response is cute!

It’s fun to see this kind of stuff. A little good-natured levity is a nice change from the news.

7. Matt Damon will play Swalwell in the upcoming Netflix movie.

10. "Winds of Impeachment"

[TexasBushwhacker]

9. I think it might have been the camera operator

They would be closer to the microphone.

[Me.]

11. I Believe Him

Tweety has a years long habit of making dreadful coughing/gagging sounds into his mic.

[TheBlackAdder]

12. There's no way someone could let one rip like that without pausing and cracking a smile.

[TomSlick]

13. The dog did it.

It's always the dog.

[nolabear]

19. It is in my house.

Two French bulldogs. Much wind.

[TomSlick]

35. Even if the dog is not in the room, it's always the dog.

[SCantiGOP]

15. Waiting on Trump's tweet

This is obviously a bigger scandal than Ukraine.
This comes up to Obama Tan Suit level.

[Cartaphelius]

16. And the one that did

did the fluffing said nothing...

That ought to narrow it down some.

But then crop dusting is just good sport.....

[Politicub]

17. And on Havana's 500th birthday?

Outrageous!

[LenaBaby61]

18. This afternoon was one of the very few times I've watched Hardball ...

And when I heard it, I said to myself that the noise sounded just like a very heavy tea mug a friend made for me when I slide it across an antique Lucite table I have in my kitchen.

Sure enough:

21. I heard it but I thought it sounded like it was from the studio, as the sound wasn't

muffled. Funny though.

[RandiFan1290]

22. Idiocracy. nt

[New Breed Leader]

23. For real.

[KY_EnviroGuy]

24. This calls for a debate....

Needed a little levity today........

[Raine]

25. Matthews often looks and sounds like he's stifling a belch

apparently this time the belch couldn't be stifled and came out the rear end!

[sprinkleeninow]

28. Sprinkle needs a

tinkle. Again. Dam and blast.

30. #fartgate is resolved with new video
