This Gosar character is an a-hole.

Not shocking at all that his siblings made campaign ads for his opponent. 

OH it’s that guy!!! Totally makes sense 👍

[rondonalddo]

I also wouldn't commit to giving book deal profits to charity.

I love hearing Jamie Raskin speak. I've heard him in person several times, and he's very charismatic.

[bowies]

Republicans clearly understand that Meadows is the only one doing an OK job at discrediting him.

Idk how to embed a tweet, but this is a gif of the woman in front of Jordan rolling her eyes and I need to know who she is.


ETA - her name is Stacey Plaskett, rep for US Virgin Islands

Raskin asking about the pee tape!

[funfetti]

The form asks for foreign contracts within the past 2 years. Weren’t his contracts more than 2 years ago therefore he wasn’t omitting anything on the form?

I agree.  He was a professor at my law school, and while I never took his class, I had some dealings with him, and he was a little challenging. He's brilliant but his personality is much better suited to being a representative than being a law professor.

Yeah, who is the eye rolling woman and where can I donate to her next campaign?

Reading the crawl about Trump making a fool of America in front of a dictator is enraging me while this is going on too.

I liked the stealth abortion question

I think he had a deal with a foreign bank after #45 became president

Meadows is losing his shit. I love how calm Cohen is. lol

[Bernadine]

Convicted Russian mobster Felix Sater. Over and over again.

"If this hearing has taught us anything, it's that no woman alive should spend a minute worrying she's unqualified to run for office."

[cbwm1]

You can see AOC’s mind working during this line of questioning. I have high hopes for what she’s going to go in on. lol

[debatethis]

Cohen confirms Trump lied under oath re: Sater, says all his business records are at a Trump Org offsite storage facility and he (Sater) got free rent at Trump Tower.

I didn’t know she was on this committee and now I can’t wait!

[pinkdutchtulips]

Thank you ladies for this thread 😊 i read Cohen’s statement on the way into work (thank you BART WiFi for working in the rain !!) and since I can’t follow along at work ... this is the next best thing 😊

[pixy0stix]

I finally got to tune in!

Lmao. Does she say be quiet here?

Why is Amash being so soft? What’s his backstory?

[sugarglider]

As I hoped, Amash did not follow the republican script. I wish Cohen had an answer for the truth Trump fears question.

[curbsideprophet]

So if this is accurate, it sounds like the form Meadows is referring to asks about contracts with foreign governments.

Amash is one of the most libertarian representatives in Congress and is not a Trump fan, which makes him a more neutral interrogator in this scenario.

I am really sad I am going to need to leave to do car line soon.
