Ben Sasse STFU

Instead of asking questions of Judge Jackson you're on a pontificating filibuster. Save that for your MAGA circle jerk.

4. I know that we have to have these hearings

and that there will be Republicans participating in them but I don't know why anybody is thinking or pretending like they are going to say anything constructive or that they are going to vote for KJB in the end.

Senator Josh Hawley led the charge, telling reporters that he had “conclusive evidence” linking Jackson to Biden.

“Judge Jackson met with Biden, talked to Biden, and allowed herself to be nominated by Biden,” Hawley said. “Three strikes, you’re out.”

5. I understand the need for live public hearings, but the down side is

that they are often just a stage for political posturing aimed at their base. Instead of asking serious questions they bloviate on their favorite talking points or throw out gotcha questions - there's far more heat than light. How about if the hearings were not televised but transcripts were made available right away - that way the proceedings would be public but without the opportunity for pointless grandstanding.

11. This is so true

Many of them are thinking less about the job at hand and are performing for the camera. They love being on stage.

7. Opening remarks are like that, talking for the time allowed.

This hearing is going really well so far, no one has forgetten the First Amendment, cried, or proclaimed how much they like beer.
