Andrea Mitchell is fucking worthless

When talking about Stepian not appearing because his wife went into labor, she "breathlessly" says; "of course we're all thrilled for him and his wife"...

Like in a fucking trial, you'd express your "thrill" that the criminals wife is having a baby.

A real fucking journalist, like Cronkite, or Rather, would be demanding a vaginal ultrasound to prove she was in labor, or at the very least, not "gush" over the "baby".

Andrea Mitchell seems to be covering someone from her fucking dinner party circle.

It's the journalistic equivalent of mutual masturbation.

What she has going for her is longevity, I'll give her that. Other than that, what she is, is a right-winged HACK who couldn't stop with the "But her emails" crap with Hillary, yet when Ivanka and evil Mannequin Jared--and most of tRump's inner circle were caught doing their email thing, Mitchell said not one word about them. I was no longer watching her, but friends who could stomach her drivel told me she never mentioned Ivanka/Jared's improper use of emails. Of course she's a right-winged hack, look at who she's married to, Alan Greenspan who destroyed the US Economy and should have been in jail himself a long time ago. IF the treasonous shoe was on the other foot, you know the GQP US Taliban party would be prosecuting Dems until the world looked level. Look at the hell they put Hillary through for NOTHING with Benghazi. Look at what happened with Benghazi under Dubya and Cheney which was way worse.

Whether he is in fact a criminal will have to be determined by a court, but for now he's just a witness. His previously-recorded testimony will probably be presented today, and the committee can call him back live later if they think they still need him.

I do agree, though, that Mitchell is pretty useless.

the hearings on the CNN app for free. They do that for major political events including debates and election nights...Once the hearing is over you will be locked out if you don't have a cable plan that includes it, but still an alternative.

clothing of the committee members as they came out. I thought JFC this is a serious matter and you want to describe the clothing as if it is some kind of fashion show?

It's like watching the Nuremberg trial with a laugh track.

The lack of seriousness is stunning.

I blame social media

"Does the fact that he (Donnie Short Fingers) keeps repeating these fraud allegations undercut the committees main claim that he knew he had lost"?

As Bug's would say; "what a maroon"!
