I agree that she could have asked a question or two. The art is in how to ask. For instance, read the quote from the guy’s thesis about minors should be on Grinde, and simply ask “You wrote those words didnt you?”
By the way, the Congresswoman who preceded her did a textbook joh of a direct examination. Good example of how to take a friendly witness. (Particularly one who has been well prepped.)
“You wrote those words didnt you?”
Yep. Totally valid critique.
