turn out to be just an opportunity for for republicans to spew their misrepresentations and lies, and will be just a waste of time.

Yesterday was a disgrace the way the Secretary of State was treated, and that the name calling was allowed as far as it went was way out of bounds.

Why aren't the Democrats pushing more back on this

When Elizabeth Warren was literally silenced by Mitch McConnell because he didn't like her questioning of Sessions, what do the Democrats do when the republicans throw vile insults toward the Secretary of State?

Not very much
