It’s not unusual for lawmakers to banter with a committee chairman when they vehemently disagree about how they’re running a hearing. But Rep. Billy Long, R-Mo., engineered an “unwritten” technique to handle protesters at another hearing this week.

Demonstrator Laura Loomer rose toward the back of the hearing room with a phone affixed to a selfie stick. It’s certainly not written anywhere that you can’t bring up important policy issues when swearing-in a new member of Congress.
