Boebert leaks photo, Clinton hearing stopped [View all]

Former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton's deposition before the House Oversight Committee was paused Thursday afternoon after Rep. Lauren Boebert (R-Colo.) took an unauthorized photo of Clinton and sent it to conservative influencer Benny Johnson.

Why it matters: Taking a photo during an ongoing deposition and sharing it on social media is a violation of House rules.

Zoom in: "The hearing has been paused briefly while we figure out where the photo came from and why possibly members of Congress are violating House rules," Clinton spokesman Nick Merrill told reporters.
