Chaotic scenes at House hearing as Corey Lewandowski refuses to answer questions

Former Donald Trump aide Corey Lewandowski's testimony to the House Judiciary Committee descended into farce as Democrats accused him of 'filibustering' for demanding to read passages of the Mueller report before answering questions. Lewandowski was facing questions from the panel over the report into Russian interference in the 2016 presidential election and alleged obstruction of justice by the president. In his opening statement he accused 'Trump haters' of playing 'petty politics' with the issue, before invoking executive privilege to refuse to answer a series of questions from increasingly frustrated Democrats.
