"There was quite a competition from the clown car on Capitol Hill today between the nominee to lead the Department of Homeland Security...Markwayne Mullin...and the current director of national intelligence, Tulsi Gabbard, on who could be more evasive, more uninformed and really more sycophantic, which may be what it's all about."
During Rep. Markwayne Mullin's confirmation hearing to lead the Department of Homeland Security, he engaged in a contentious exchange with Sen. Rand Paul over remarks Mullin made justifying the violent attack Paul experienced from his neighbor. Fox News initially covered several minutes of Paul's remarks and their back-and-forth before switching to another hearing as the altercation intensified. MSNBC host Jen Psaki criticized Fox News for cutting away from the live hearing at the peak of the confrontation, comparing the network's coverage strategy to an inverted NFL Red Zone format.
