***So you are admitting you don’t understand the function of Congressional hearing. Figures. When there is a real Justice Department such hearings lead to prosecutions and we haven’t had one for eight years.***
No, you’re anything you’ve been living in a hole for the last 15-20 years if you think 1 prosecution is going to come from a tax-guzzling hearing. It doesn’t matter who is in office, committees are where criminals in government to to get off. Why don’t you say C Span every once in a while instead of making a fool out of yourself.
And by the way, I’m one of Jeff Sessions biggest admirers. You wanna tell me where the hell he is?
Damn I should have proof read that. Either way, I said hearings don’t lead to prosecutions and you’re accusing me of not understanding how hearings work then you say with a new President we’ll have prosecutions come from hearings. I think you’re the one who is confused because you are contradicting yourself.
Sessions answered your question today. BTW he is not some grandstanding A-hole constantly before the cameras announcing what he is going to do. He just does it.
Presumably when you bake a cake you expect it to be ready in five minutes.
Congress can not effectively operate without hearings both to produce laws and to handle investigations of those subjects important to the nation. Many are after the fact which is also unavoidable.
One of the more important hearings were those into organized crime in the late fifties which revealed concert evidence that there was a Mafia and which led to the arrest, conviction and imprisonment of many OC figures. They also put JFK into the spotlight resulting in his election, after which he and RFK went after the Mob in a spectacular fashion. Sadly that led to his death.
It is even more clear that you don’t understand the workings and importance of the Congressional hearing procedure. Often they only have educational value which you, apparently, disdain.
