And they all decided to stop broadcasting at about the same time?
I am now watching it on C-SPAN 3.
The Democrats are getting very valuable information, in my opinion.
The Republicans seem to have deserted the hearing?
Lewandowski admitted that Trump dictated a note to give to AG Sessions. That is the first direct evidence uncovered by direct testimony, as far as I can tell.

This is why all the concern-trolling on DU is just ridiculous. The media is skewing and continue to do so.

(1,680 posts)Regardless of the value of the information given, less than one percent of the voters will have ANY knowledge of that. This is a waste of time. It's like they are lying to themselves (maybe to us, too) thinking that today's hearing would have an effect. They need to get a clue. Time to fight, do so ferociously, and in the clearest, simplest, and most dramatic way.
Edited to add: They are in actuality mostly preaching to the choir.

(268,846 posts)They're doing their owners' bidding - notice that they have all their hacks telling us what is going on rather than letting us view it for ourselves.
Give thanks for CSpan.

What a mess!
