Jake Tapper: if you are wondering why cameras not showing GOPers with feet on desk, reading comic books, etc.--GOP insisted only show speakers at podium. They want base to know they are not taking seriously--but afraid to show it.

How'd that work when we insisted on witnesses in round 1?

Reconstruction Black Legislators are portrayed with their feet on the desks, eating fried chicken in the House of Representatives. Jake Tapper's description of the republican Senators today sound so much like this.

.... 3percent, white nationalist voters for 2022 & 2024. They don't give a shit if the majority are Nazis because the politicians are sorta Nazis themselves.

I think the Senate camera, which feeds the pool, always only show the podium and the floor in the Senate chambers. Hawley was up in the Senate gallery, which isn't shown during proceedings.
