US Sen. Pat Roberts was questionin­g the secretary of agricultur­e when the senator’s cellphone suddenly went off, serenading a hearing room with the most popular song from the Disney movie “Frozen.’’

As the 71yearold Kansas lawmaker tried to shut off the phone, he quipped, “Just let it go.’’

He later explained that the ringtone is for his grandkids.

Apple blamed the supposed hate speech on a bug that has since been fixed.
