House Democrats Refuse to Allow Steve Scalise to Testify at ‘Gun Violence’ Hearing

I’ve been watching the circus they call a "hearing" today with Acting AG Whitaker. No one is trying to get answers or seek facts in these hearings. These are merely politicians trying to belittle and intimidate while getting their opportunity to speak their mind on TV.

Whitaker sure mopped the floor with Sheila Jackson-Lee, I gotta say that.

 

That was good family entertainment, is what it was.

They act like they are going through confirmation hearings on him and he's outta there in a couple of days.  Wasted time at the public's expense.

At least they can't do any real damage. He made them all look like fools.
