OK, I’m so aggitated I hardly know what to think. Now I’m back in the camp of thinking this woman was a good idea. She clearly let us all know she thought the whole proceedure was fucked at the end. I liked that quite a lot. 

OK! After watching this for a while, I have changed my mind. This is fucked up. Why are we burrowing into who paid for the polygraph and if maybe someone else could have spoken to the senate minute after minute after minute after minute. Fuck that, it’s just fucking stupid. 

They hate Harris because she’s so fierce. 

I actually found this quite funny, which is a novel feeling around this event. How could he not know that????

I don’t doubt it. They’ve made it more than clear that they will do their best to destroy you if you dare to speak. 

Yeah, the laughter is devistating. 

I agree, I think she’s doing a significantly better job than these old fuckwads would in terms of not being a complete dick. Of course, I just got home so I could be wrong. I guess we’ll find out at time goes on. It seems really unlikely she could do a more abusive job than Grassley or Hatch, though. 

ha!

Sure. Cast iron bucket, would totally hurt. 

I love that.

She was brilliant, though, I thought. 

That part is really galling. 

She’s a “female assistant”. Please be accurate, Mitch McConnell never lies. /s

Don’t need to guess, they’ve made it clear she doesn’t get to respond, and no one else gets to ask her follow up questions during this hearing, either. 

You nailed it. We need more reporting on this. 

Oh, FFS. I am perfectly well aware of what is at stake, and you left the environment off your list of what’s at stake which is the most important thing that’s at stake here, becaue it’s where we all live, as well as the fact that poor people and poor countries are being significantly more impacted by climate change…

Maybe? But you recall Aaron Hernandez started acting odd when he was in his teen years and when he died at less than 30 he had a significantly advanced case of CTE. Some people appear to get it very early. I don’t know if CTE involves voices in your head or not, though. 

This cheered me greatly. Thank you.

He hasn’t actually said anything except that he’s going to say something at some point in the future. He hasn’t given any evidence, he hasn’t named any names, he hasn’t offered anything except that he says he’s going to offer something soon. As it stands now, it’s bullshit. If he actually has something, he should just…

Thanks. I found a reasonable account in the WP this morning too.
