I heard that when he was in kindergarten, Patel got caught licking the frosting off of a cupcake he had not intention of eating. Later in this 20’s, Patel was known to dispose of plastic recyclables in his regular trash bin.
Durbin needs to prove his allegations or just shut up. Has he ever been viable in his position?
“If this is all Durbin’s got, it should be smooth sailing for Patel.”
In confirmation hearings, any third party “I heard this from an anonymous source” who a legislator claims to have heard it from, needs to be present at the hearing for confirmation of what the legislator claims. If that doesn’t happen, an immediate censure vote is called. If the vote passes, the legislator is immediately removed from the panel and can no longer be on ANY committee.
