8. The Hearing is now scheduled to begin at 10:45, less than an hour late. Probably a fender bender.

9. I wish he didn't let the Repubs walk all over him

When I read this I was kind of hoping that someone else would be able to chair the hearing. I like Nadler, it just seems that he lets the repubs get under his skin. It is a difficult position to be in, he has to be fair (or we would be as bad as them), but they do seem to walk all over him.

10. Don't scare me like that.

13. What a coincidence.

Bullshit Barr has a lot of agents at his disposal.
