After Speaker Paul Ryan’s press conference Tuesday morning, one of the people in the room was caught on a hot mic saying, “waste of my f*** time.” Watch:

So, who said it? Was it a member of the press…
Press is understandably frustrated w/ Ryan's non-answers in this 'hot mic' moment. 'Waste of my f*cking time.' #Resist https://t.co/xGrUsSlVBv

…or was it, as alleged by Nancy Pelosi’s Deputy Chief of Staff Drew Hammill, Speaker Ryan himself who uttered the expletive:

We have no idea who said it, but if it wasn’t Paul Ryan, Hammill better get his apology ready.
Update. Hammill deleted his accusation and apologized:
.@BrendanBuck tells me that was not his boss. Will take his word for it and I apologized.
