On Monday, federal prosecutors will continue their cross examination of former governor Rod Blagojevich. But on Thursday, the courtroom was full of confusion and mayhem.

Prosecutors yelled questions over Blagojevich’s long-winded responses. Blagojevich’s lawyer Aaron Goldstein had to yell his objections over his client, leading Blagojevich to ask why Goldstein was objecting him.
