Tuesday's House Judiciary Committee hearing with Attorney General William Barr had plenty of popcorn moments, but one exchange the witness had with Rep. Madeleine Dean (D-PA) deserves an honorable mention. As Dean, a Democratic representative from Pennsylvania, was questioning the attorney general, she seemed to completely forget her point. And Barr instantly called her bluff.
Dean began her interrogation with a timeline of events on the day President Trump walked from the White House to St. John's Episcopal Church, which had been lit on fire the night before during George Floyd-related riots in the city. About 15 minutes before he took his stride to the church, park police sprayed protesters outside the White House in Lafayette Square with PepperBalls, clearing the area. Barr said it was a coincidence.
She then displayed a description of the DOJ's use of less-lethal weapons from a 2009 report. It explained that the accuracy and accompanying blunt trauma impact of PepperBalls make it "an ideal chemical dispensing system." So, Dean concluded that although Barr claimed it "wasn't a chemical," he must at least be aware of his department's policy.
"What policy?" Barr asked.

“He looked around and laughed a hearty laugh. “
Hahahaha!!!
I watched the whole hearing. I noticed that as the hearing progressed the demtards got more unhinged. I expect they thought he would take the bait early on and when he didn’t they became more panicked.
Sadly as a long time Pennsylvania resident I am not surprised that people like her get elected here.
They are afraid of what he will produce they are very afraid like animals cornered
Pennsylvania Ping!
Please ping me with articles of interest.
FReepmail me to be added to the list.
What a bitch.
The video confirms the old saw that Washington is a Hollywood for ugly people. If my dog had a face like hers, I’d shave his butt and train him to walk backwards.
It is customary to allow persons to answer questions. It is also customary for members to use their time to make speeches. What isn’t customary is to berate witnesses because the member doesn’t allow them to answer questions.
HAHAHAHAHAhahahahahahah~~~!
Better chance of fair hearing if you ask Joe Stalin for one.
Hard to believe that US Government is operating like such a kangaroo court.
Desparate Democrats are wasting Barrs time.
Send “Orange Man Bad” federal and state government desperate Democrats and RINOs home in November!
Supporting PDJT with a new patriot Congress and state government leaders that will promise to fully support his already excellent work for MAGA and stopping SARS-CoV-2 will effectively give fast-working Trump a “third term” in office imo.
The bastard Democrats accomplished only two things: They showed their true, ugly colors and they pissed off AG Barr and normal, decent people who witnessed their putrid display.
No doubt their supporters were eating it up as they “gave it to PDJT’s henchman”. They showed him who’s the boss.
Our domestic enemies have bullied the President and his family since before he took office.
Why are any of us surprised at any of this?
I have watched a lot of hearings over the years. When a witness begins a question he is allowed to finish his answer even when time runs out. Not this time. TIME IS UP SHUT UP
They be ugly in every way possible. Somebody used up a lot of ugly sticks on these dim critters.
What was that, a propaganda ad?
He’s supposed to set there and listened to lies and BS!
