Senator King of Maine is getting pretty pissed off

[avebury]

at all four of them. He is awesome.

If the WH has not exerted Executive Privilege they need to be answering the questions.

2. "What you FEEL is not relevant, Admiral," he snaps......

KING to ROGERS: I don't care what you feel. What is the LEGAL BASIS for your refusal?

ROGERS: I stand by my previous statement.

3. They waived executive privilege when they said they had not been pressured....

what a great call by King.

That's why sailors are not lawyers.

[Duppers]

4. What the F is their motivation ...

Except for protecting 45 and their jobs?

It's not informing the American people.

On edit: now saying they'll answer in a closed session.

[Initech]

10. Easy answer: Greed.

To which greed is truly a bottomless pit for the Trumpers.

[Ligyron]

14. That and fear.

[berksdem]

5. Angus was on fire

and took them to task.

Unfortunately, these 4 stooges wont say anything... total shit-show.

[awesomerwb1]

6. Glad I was able to at least watch that.

That's what I was expecting from anyone putting country before party.

[ananda]

7. Boy, they are all carrying 45's water!

And Sessions refuses to testify at all.

They should all be cited for contempt and jailed.

[avebury]

8. Totally agree!!! nt

[lillypaddle]

9. He

Kamala Harris, and Martin Heinrich (NM) were all awesome. A few others ...

[Ilsa]

11. Sen. Harris stood her ground, she only let up when protocol

required her silence. She went after Rosenstein on insuring Mueller could not be fired from his investigation. She's tough, and I wonder if the head of the committee felt like he could cross her because she's a woman.

[lunatica]

13. Kamala Harris was Attorney General in California

She knows her stuff.

[red dog 1]

12. We need a Special Prosecutor, not just a GOP-controlled Senate Intelligence Committee hearing

Too bad we won't be getting one.
