Graham wants to hear from the panel and vote on the 22nd. The dems want to c/o and stall and stop it.

I'm not sure what angelle is watching, to be honest. I've tried finding it but all live streams are saying it's over. They may still be having some procedural votes??

Wow Durbin saying they can't continue because only one dem in quorum.
Graham cannot just guess on who is present. Some of the dems are video people. He had no way of knowing that Kamala was out sucking D for votes, and it was time for Leahy's second nap.
There is a meeting. You are paid to be there. Get your arse in there and do your job. Minimal whining, please.

Ah ok! I didn't catch the first hour due to work.
Well, regardless, we're moving on to Oct. 22nd and hopefully Turtle goes ahead and puts her up for a full vote the next day and we have Justice ACB by next Friday night.

Dem bullshite ran on at least an hour and a half (that's when I started tuning in and they still had not gotten to the panel yet)...
But eventually they did hear from the multi-racial, abortion-needing, mother with 3 sons (one being a "transgender daughter"). The panel was a total shitshow.

Oh, I'm fairly certain that somewhere, to anyone that will listen, they are STILL complaining.

She said they were all brilliant. What she didn't mention is one is mentally deranged, one is a crackhead, and the third is the chief suspect in a drive-by.
Now that is some omission of pertinent facts. (If it were true)

I read an article last year about how toxic of a boss Klobuchar is. Not shocked, she seems easily angered and entitled.

Funny the things you notice during one of those hearings. For example, at one point they showed a split-screen for several seconds of Amy Klobuchar listening intensely while Texas Senator Ted Cruz was speaking. This screenshot I captured may not do it justice, but it really seemed to me that Ms. Klobuchar was clearly enamored with him:
And just in case you're wondering if Klobuchar was equally smitten with everybody, I also noticed that she promptly put her mask back on and stopped paying attention when Sen. Mike Lee started speaking:
Poor Senator Lee. I guess he simply doesn't possess the same degree of charm and charisma as his colleague from Texas. Then again, maybe it's the beard.

That article had a ton of evidence from many of her employees. She blamed her cranium full of fecal matter on them not understanding the depth of her work ethic.
It was funny how, when Graham decided to move on, she ran a 4.3 40 to get back in there.

It had nothing to do with Lee. Aboot the time Ted was through speaking, she felt a churn and was working on a one-cheek sneak.

Both pundits and voters have largely overlooked Klobuchar’s reputation as a terrible boss since the Minnesota senator launched her campaign last February. According to current and former employees, Klobuchar regularly yells at staffers over minor infractions and throws objects allegedly hitting one aide with a hurled binder. She reportedly sabotages staffers who try to leave her office by calling their new employers and attempting to have their job offers rescinded. Her reputation is so well-known in Washington that she had trouble staffing her own presidential campaign, HuffPost reported. “The way she treats staff is disqualifying,” one former staffer told Yahoo! News last year.

SIAP but why is this thread entitled Notorious ACB Confirmation Hearings: ???
What is notorious about Amy Barrett?
Should it not be Notorious Confirmation Hearings for ACB: — or simply, ACB Confirmation Hearings:
A misplaced modifier can make a subjective difference here. In journalism we call this a subconscious bias.
Google definition, “notorious” — famous or well known, typically for some bad quality or deed.
Synonyms: Infamous or of I’ll repute
Al Capone and Harvey Weinstein were notorious.
Was Ruth Bader Ginsberg notorious?

It's a play-on-words. Some of Ruth Bader Ginsberg's fans referred to her as "The Notorious RBG."
In that context, it isn't meant as an insult in either case.

Thanks. Guess I’m just not hip enough on some of these cult references and political inside jokes. I’m too literal at times.
And if that’s the explanation then cool. I understand. But in that case “Notorious ACB” should have placed in quotes, thus implying a play-on-words.
