The hearing was derailed when Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, R-Ga., responded to a question from Rep. Jasmine Crockett, D-Texas, by saying, “I think your fake eyelashes are messing up what you’re reading.”

I'm very deaf," the committee’s chairman, Rep. James Comer, R-Ky., said after cross talk took over."I'm not understanding — everybody's yelling. I'm doing the best I can.
