As far as I can tell these "hearings" are Kabuki Theater anyway. Why shouldn't Booker do a little grandstanding, something he's really good at, to get the info out?

Booker was just bufoonish.
Kamala Harris, however, was just plain mean trying to play to her party base.
Guess she is trying to behave like Trump.

Sen. Booker bitch slapped John Cornyn for having the nerve to bring up rules and decorum - Merrick Garland, motherfuckers.

Sen. Harris asked questions for which she knew the answers and HE KNEW she had the answers and tried to split the difference between lying and answering truthfully. She made him look like Ralph Cramden stammering out some bullshit to Perry Mason, “Hominah hominah!”

You saw some damn fine lawyering on display by Senator Harris and a confident Senator Booker telling the GOP to have a seat.

You’re just mad you got mic dropped TWICE.

Speaking of winning!

Nike takes this round.

Also... their stock price is up a bit further today. Not yet back to where it was, but almost halfway - from a small loss.

Angus King and Bernie Sanders need to show Susan Collins and Lisa Murkowski how the don’t need to shackle themselves to a moribund political party and can have not only viable, but enjoyable Senate careers representing their states as independents. Neither of them want Kavanaugh on the Court and now would be a good time to set themselves on a path to outlast the republican party which is clearly imploding.

The meetings about leakers leaking are still being leaked minutes after they let out.

When your policies attract only evil fucks you are left in rooms full of only evil fucks, which is the current plight of the GOP. That the GOP has any power at all is the current blight on the United States.

You do of course recall Ms Harris's final comment

(flustered)   "You could have just said that yesterday"

when getting the answer she feared -    "No"

But yeah - good job by her.

For those of you challenged by the paywall, even on September 6th...

Trump is still trying to keep children past the legal limits, while they also still have hundreds of kids seperated from their parents, post court order.

Criminal, amoral conduct.

There's a simple solution...reunite as many as possible...then deport them all back over the Mexican border, from whence they came...problem solved.

Vanna, sell this fool a clue.

They have no idea where the parents are, Bambu. They don't want to know.

They already deported the parents.

Your heartlessness and your ignorance remain in place, well demonstrated.

You still have zero clue what actually occurs when an adult crosses the border with a child and is not "legal".

Just continue to say no to illegal aliens. America no longer needs cheap labor from primitive violent cultures. American streets are not paved with gold. This is a slap in the face to poor whites and Afro-Americans who have to step to the back of the bus again.

Da fuck are you talking about?

Whose jobs do you think the newcomers will compete for? Come to Amerika.

You aren't paying attention to this job market, are you?

You’re just mad you got mic dropped TWICE.

Harris and Booker were only preaching to democrats and the media.
(  sorry for the pleonastic formulation)
What they can’t get around is the scorecard for losing an election. 
President Trump has nominated two Supreme Court justices, 36 court of appeals judges and 99 district judges.
That’s 137 judges in roughly 19 months on the job. If he maintains this pace, Trump could replace more than 30 percent of all active judges by the end of his first term.

You ignore the GOP blocking judicial nominations in the minority. Why do think there are so many vacancies to fill after eight years of Obama? When the Senate blocked Merrick Garland you hollered about the Biden rule that doesn’t exist.

The GOP is full of shit.

Because cloaked in mystery this lawyer is seen by Harris's people as real - as a guy Kavanagh spoke to.   

Bringing up the actual name and having Kavanagh say "no" would spoil that.  NOW Harris and her people can go on and contend "he's lying - he spoke to someone there".

She was a PROSECUTOR and judging by her tactics, she was a damn good one. He could have said no the first time she asked for a yes or no answer and the penultimate time she asked for a yes or no answer. It took two days for him to say no.

Cogitate on that...
