I read an article in Politico recently about that grand jury. Apparently it was very politically motivated. They indicted people who the prosecutor had told were not a target. They apparently went off the rails. Some of the grand jurors said that there was a clique of jurors who just wanted to indict everybody. They’d ask accusatory questions and the other jurors would roll their eyes.

I don’t think it was a failure of leadership. If you look at the video, Comer tried to stop it. The three women were acting like children. How does an adult handle that? Spank them? I thought Comer acted appropriately. What’s also interesting from the video is that other congressmen were whispering in his ear. What do you suppose they were whispering? Here is what I think they were whispering: “Just let them go at it.” These are three women who have no business being in the Congress. They did not do themselves any favors by exhibiting this spectacle. The best strategy was to let them make fools of themselves. Maybe their constituents will get a clue and vote them out. But if not, then at least they have marginalized themselves.
I haven’t seen the video and I don’t speak Russian. However, I suspect he was trying to butter up Xi. Putin depends on his allies as much as Ukraine depends on its allies. A large part of the Russian attackers are mercenaries from other countries.
