(82,849 posts)12. Pro tip: This isn't a Perry Mason episode
If you were expecting anyone to suddenly break, stand up and point to the gallery, "It was him! He's the one who made me do it! It was him all along!" with a quick camera swing to President Trump, startled, then jumping up and running for the door to the hearing room and intercepted by a brace of marshals, you were bound to be disappointed.
Open congressional sessions where damning testimony comes out is what got Oliver North (for example) off the hook in Iran-contra, exonerated on a technicality. As noted above, it's Mueller's investigation where the action is.

We also have to remember that there are good guys behind the scenes doing stuff we don't know about!

Frustrating as it is, we do not want them revealing info that would compromise the investigation.

While a cover-up is possible (& juicy), what you're saying is probably accurate IME. nt
