The Democrat on the committee doesn’t think that hearing should be taking place at all. And as a rep. of the state that elected her, she doesn’t have to ask questions pertaining to an investigation she thinks should be over. Again, you must not watch a lot of cspan, because that is standard stuff. | ||

Its weird how talking to someone isn’t really evidence of anything. Also if there was back room dealings, why would they do it in public? We have phones in this modern era. | ||
