A subcommittee meeting on government efficiency became unruly as discussions about speaking time led to heated exchanges between members. Rep. Stephen Lynch confronted Chair Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene regarding the fair allocation of time for both parties, insisting on adherence to established rules. Despite tensions, Greene insisted on maintaining equal speaking time amidst disputes. The meeting reflects broader complications within political discussions on efficiency, especially as tensions rise over recent federal layoffs and budget freezes linked to the Department of Government Efficiency, overseen by Elon Musk who has begun to reduce his involvement.
Greene: Enough, enough. LYNCH: No, no, no, no, no! Hey, look, either we go by the rules or we're outta here! Greene: We're keeping equal time.
Greene: The Gentlelady's time is expired. You spoke for over a minute more than your allocated time, Stansbury protested.
