I couldn’t watch/listen to the hearing today so may have missed something not covered in the commentary.

That means they will revert to their brute force tendencies to continue disrupting.

many more times. MAYBE if Nadler files contempt charges against Lewigi the rest of the Pubs will change their minds.

We have the law. They have some corrupt judges, but the rest will do their job.

They're trying to make the best of the time they create by doing everything they can to obstruct and delay our progress in the courts, and with the electorate, by filling it with propaganda. Judiciary's Swalwell said we expect an eventual "cascade" of judicial decisions in our favor, and they're desperately trying to reinforce their redoubts against that day.

So unfortunate for us -- but one of their big breaks -- that charges of contempt of congress would have to be prosecuted by William Barr. So I think we should expect their big acting out that this is all a corrupt Democratic circus to continue at every opportunity, but especially when the spotlight's on the center ring.
