He continues various cringeworthy, whiny versions of "I don't wanna go." and "You can't make me!" until the bottom of page 9, where Schiff suspends proceedings and starts a clock. The time elapsed until Gaetz leaves is to be taken from time allotted for the minority to pose questions.

Top of p10 restarts the meeting with no explanation of how Gaetz was vacated. Most of the page involves explanation of parliamentary procedure which excludes people like Gaetz, with a comment from Jordan about no mention in PP re losing time. Schiff ignores this comment and asks if Jordan has an opening statement, which he does. Through most of p12, Jordan complains about how unfair impeachment is, and how the Dems are doing it all wrong.

*smh*
