30. Claim that Dems did not spend enough time on 'transcript'
Mon Jan 27, 2020, 02:12 PM
Jan 2020

because it didn't say what they wanted it to say.

1. Bollocks (that didn't take long!)
2. No actual transcript was provided, only a memorandum

eta: all Sek. is doing is tearing down Democrats for supposedly blocking the Congress from getting work done (another lie, see Moscow Mitch and legislative logjam) and saying they are endangering the Republic/the Constitution over policy differences. The doublespeak is out in force.
