A Republican witness became unglued Wednesday after a Democratic lawmaker declined to question him.
At a Wednesday House Oversight Committee impeachment hearing, Rep. Ro Khanna (D-CA) directed questions to Lev Parnas, a former associate of Rudy Giuliani.
Following Khanna's questions, former Hunter Biden business associate Tony Bobulinski hijacked Rep. Byron Donalds' (R-FL) time to complain.
"Congressman Donalds, I'd just actually like to spend 20 seconds," Bobulinski said. "If you noticed, Congressman Khanna scurried out of here very quickly."
"And I'm actually disgusted as I sit here that he didn't address me, based on the fact that I'm sitting here in front of the world, trying to testify to the truth," he remarked.
"In October 2020, I have messages I'm willing to produce to both the Democrats and the Republicans that Ro Khanna sent to me saying, you have never, you've always demonstrated to me that you're nothing but an honest, with the highest integrity, individual."

Bobulinski referred to a Blackberry phone that Republicans have refused to subpoena.
"I have extensive emails with Congressman Ro Khanna in 2021 and 2022, where I begged him and his staff to sit down with me and look at my BlackBerry phones that the Democrats are so focused on, to hire forensics experts and go through all of the factual information I had," he complained.
"So the fact that he did not even address me and then scurried out of here is disgusting to me," he added. "Sorry, Mr. Donalds. I'll answer your question now."
The congressman did not appear to be pleased.
"So we're going to have to come off of that because now we're at three minutes, 30 seconds," he pointed out.
