At the KBJ hearings, was it former AL Senator Doug Jones

sitting close behind and to the side of her?

I was wondering why....Does anyone know what their association is?

designated to guide her through the confirmation process

[Sogo]

3. OK, thanks.

I didn't realize he was working at the WH....

6. Yes, Doug Jones was very instrumental in these confirmation hearings for KBJ.

He is an amazing guy - hope there is more for him in this administration.

"Jones successfully prosecuted 2 of the 4 men responsible for the 1963 bombing of the 16th Street Baptist Church—finally bringing full justice and closure nearly 40 years after the attack that killed four young girls. Along with taking on the Ku Klux Klan, he indicted domestic terrorist Eric Rudolph and prosecuted other criminals who sought to use fear, hatred, and violence to inhibit the rights of others"

8. Yes, he's famous for this work....

I wonder if President Biden ever considered him for AG….

7. I didn't know some of this.. ty

9. He was in charge of assisting her for the hearings and meetings with the senators by the Biden admin

[PA Democrat]

10. Yes he was working to help her through the confirmation process.

And to think that the people of Alabama chose the idiot Tommy Tuberville (who can't even name the 3 branches of government) to represent them in the US Senate.
