Do you know?

[Dennis Donovan]

9. Not specifically, but there were a bunch of empty repugs chairs during the roll call

They might not have shown up, too. I didn't see anyone walk out, per se.

14. I wish he were a little tougher.

Whitaker flat out told him how to run his own chamber. He should have handed him a contempt order on the spot.

[unblock]

15. i'm not sure how it's a win for nadler to concede that whitaker can delay things until out of office

the quote sounds tough, that the truth will out eventually. but justice delayed is justice denied, and much of the time in politics, the *timing* of the truth coming out matters.

especially when the president is involved, who is in a position to pardon everyone in sight on his last day in office.

13. I wonder how many bottles of water he's gonna go through

The hearing just started and he's on his third

18. He's getting ready for the flop sweat round...nt
