(58,785 posts)Women in positions of authority in general tend to be more hard-nosed and less inclined to put up with the sort of games being played here. We're seeing that demonstrated by some of them.
The next congressperson demonstrates how effectively had Scanlon used her "yes or no" tactic to cut off any propagandizing masquerading as answer. Rep. Garcia is doing a good job of exposing the DOJ's viciously callous and inhumane attitudes toward the tearing apart of families and seemingly no duty whatsoever regarding them.

I like her. Of course, I'm liking a lot of them. I even liked that Republican for pointing out Comey's and the FBI's corrupt activities, even though he was channeling the far right's "deep state" house of mirrors viewpoint.

From where I sat? It was 'a you go, girl' moment.
