Oops, my error ... Schiff was a US Prosecutor,
While Raskin is/was a university professor.

(7,840 posts)Someone should tell the screeching idiot she was asked to appear before the United States House Select Committee on the January 6 Attack...who the hell did she think was going to be "dialed in" if not lawyers for the committee and committee members both of which are lawyers?...amazing how the Trump Toddlers and their mates continually redefine "stupid" but not in a good way...

She's got a frog mouth with duck lips!

(18,623 posts)I understand her lawyers concern about who gets to listen in, but it shouldn't be optional to testify. It was, after all, transcribed, but not everyone would be privy to it unless it shows intent of a crime.
Of course, what do I know?

I'll suboena you, just leave your lawyer at home you can cry to him later on the phone.
And when the angels ask me who I knew that was a shrew I will tell them I remember you!
