Lawrence: 'Am I the only one untroubled by the WaPo report today?' [View all]

...Lawrence to Rachel at the end of her show tonight:

'Am I the only one untroubled by the WaPo report today, about how long it took for the Justice Dept to get where it is now? It was slow, and I think they'd argue, deliberate. And a year of delay at the Justice Dept.... when did that become a new thing? I'm just... you know.'

Rachel:

If you're shocked at the point that Merrick Garland is a cautious man, 'Good Morning! How was your rest?'

I'm happy to know it, but the fact that there was a lot of yada yada inside the department trying to figure out what to do isn't shocking.


actual exchange...film at eleven.
