Michael Magras<p>I'm not watching what the NYT calls the "combative Senate Judiciary Committee hearing" going on right now, so perhaps one of you can update me: Has any Democratic senator called her a coward, as in, "Why are you too cowardly to answer our questions about Jeffrey Epstein, or the investigation into the bag of cash handed to the border czar?" and so on. I'd be happy if Democrats started using that word around these goons, and right to their face. <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/Politics" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Politics</span></a> <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/Senate" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Senate</span></a> <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/Judiciary" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Judiciary</span></a> <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/US" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>US</span></a> <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/USpol" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>USpol</span></a></p>
