A protester who works for the right-wing news outlet Infowars interrupted the first minutes of Monday's impeachment hearing by yelling loudly in the hearing room about his opposition to the process.

Owen Shroyer abruptly began shouting in the House Judiciary Committee hearing room, accusing the Democrats of committing treason and defending the president.

"Jerry Nadler and the Democrat Party on this committee are committing treason against this country," Shroyer yelled as he was escorted out of the room by security. "We voted for Donald Trump and they're simply removing him because they don't like him."

He went on, "We know who committed the crimes and it wasn't Trump. Trump is innocent!"
