[TexasTowelie]

3. Bash seems horrified most of the interview

4. AOC dominated with facts. Yea Bash was just doing time.

Stalling.

This, I’m going to guess, was middle of the day today or yesterday. AOC knows her stuff. No one has her on in drive time (6-9AM) or on prime time. She could shape debate and where the hell would we be then?

5. AOC nailed it when she reminded us that Thomas has been on the

Court for 30 years and friends with T. Crow for 25. So much for "long time friend".

7. We know that Alito was similarly influenced by a long time donor, having "leaked" information

And then there are TFG's picks who are unqualified and suspicious at best.

6. Thomas's excuse

Clarence Thomas has used the excuse that his billionaire patron's business has not been a party to a Supreme Court case.
Bue, of course, cases involving other big corporations and other billionaires could effect him, and he could sweettalk Thomas to see things in a way that make precedents that he will find useful.

Now we know that Clarence Thomas is on the take, but what about other Justices getting gifts and benefits from others??

8. AOC is brilliant, articulate and absolutely correct....as usual!
