Rep. Jerrold Nadler, D-N.Y., the ranking member of the House Judiciary Committee, followed at right by Rep. Jamie Raskin, D-Md., leads the panel's Democrats out of the hearing room briefly after waiting for Republican members of the committee to arrive more than an hour after the scheduled start time, on Capitol Hill in Washington, Tuesday, June 26, 2018. The committee eventually met on their months-long standoff with the Justice Department on the request by the Republican-controlled panel for documents related to the origins of the FBI's Russia investigation and the handling of its probe into Democrat Hillary Clinton's emails. Democrats charge the subpoena undermines special counsel Robert Mueller's investigation into the Trump campaign's Russia ties and whether there was obstruction of justice.
