The SCOTUS Judiciary Committee hearings should be virtual. On Zoom. You know, for everyone's safety. Social distancing and all that. DEMs can't bring protesters into the room. No room full of hostile media. Harris and Feinstein can't grandstand on Zoom. The hearings will be so boring on Zoom, no one will watch. Haha. You know for everyone's safety with Covid-19.

That’s not a bad idea. Though witnesses should still be deposed in person. You know that no matter who the nominee is, the Dims will find someone to make up a story. Or do as Rush proposes...
Zoom wouldn’t work, our prima donna Senators and Representatives would never agree to a mute function.
Not a bad idea.
Hang the Dems by their own petard.
Most importantly, set a limit for debate. Next week and then a vote the following Monday.
Take the grandstanding stage right out from under the dastardly Dems. Great idea.
They need to just vote on the nominee.
There is nothing in the Constitution that says hearings must be held.
Great idea keeps the moonbats out of the hearing room audience.
Hey, everyone who hates Gender reveal parties? Trump’s going to have a gender reveal party on Friday or Saturday.
Its a Girl.
I think it’s better to have the crazies come in and trash the candidate in person b/c that will make a lot of people angry and create more Trump voters.
In 1968, LBJ attempted to move Justice Abe Fortas, his longtime political fixer, into Earl Warren's Chief Justice slot and move Homer Thornberry, another friend, into Fortas' slot. Everett Dirksen, the Republican minority leader, teamed with southern Democrats to prevent the departing LBJ from packing the Court with his liberal cronies. His tool was a committee hearing designed to bring out the dirt on the two candidates are keep the Warren slot open for Richard Nixon to fill. It worked.
Later, Fortas was forced off the Court when his involvement with crooked financier Leonard Wolfson became public.
Harris might want it so she can continue campaigning as she is on the Judiciary Committee.
Absolutely
I think the Democrats’ attacks work for Republicans at the ballot box, especially as deranged And extreme as their actions are right now.
Put them on C-Span so everyone can watch without a special download or app!!
No way...make every senator sit there and sweat before the cameras.
Post 3- I disagree.
Make everyone be in the same room for the testimony and hearing my members of the committee.
“SCOTUS Judiciary Committee hearings should be virtual. On Zoom. For safety reasons. Haha.”
haha is right ... but nice try anyway ...
Great. No more screeching protesters in the room. Grassley should have cleared the gallery after the second outburst.
