Hirono: "You LIED. You KNEW you lied. And now WE know."

[Miles Archer]

And, amazingly, Barr's facial expression never changes. He's just sitting there like "SO?"

[Skidmore]

1. He's red faced, tight lipped, and

mad.

[LibFarmer]

2. Barr is a crook

and a seasoned crook at that. He is as psychopathic as trump

[olegramps]

31. Crook, liar and amoral bastard are synonyms for Republican.

[50 Shades Of Blue]

3. She is my new heroine!

[Mme. Defarge]

4. Preach!

[tishaLA]

5. She's amazing and fearless

Now Graham is clutching pearls

[shanti]

6. She is taking NO SHIT!

[onetexan]

34. no shoe doesn't, even when crazy Graham accused her of slandering Low Barr

"Amazing Mazie" is my nickname for her. Her female power was so strong and relentless in exposing the egotistical Barr.

[ScratchCat]

7. Its because the fix is in

Barr knows he can sit there and lie his ass off and will never be prosecuted because he is the head of the DOJ and he makes the decisions about Congressional referrals for perjury.

We are in a full-fledged Constitutional crisis now. The AG has demonstrated he is a puppet of a man under investigation and will do everything possible to thwart those investigations - and there is no recourse.

[angrychair]

19. Not necessarily

We sent the Nixon AG to jail 3 yrs later (1975)

21. +1

[czarjak]

29. Enough with the negative waves...

[PatrickforO]

35. I'm not real fond of the term 'no recourse.'

The Constitution has a remedy and we do have recourse. I do agree we are in a Constitutional crisis, and that, like the frog in the proverbial pan of water on the stove, things are pretty hot. Still, we seem to be approaching a tipping point. And, Congress is fighting back quite well. Though Trump has appointed a bunch of crooks, our institutions look like they will hold.

It ain't over 'til it's over.

And our last recourse? The vote. In 2020.

[avebury]

8. She as totally awesome!

She is not taking any sh*t from him and she is nailing him to the wall.

Do you think it is ok for the President to ask ____ to lie?
Do you think it is ok for the President to offer a pardon.

And Lindsey comes in to bail Barr out.

[lunatica]

23. I expected Lindsey to go off on a rage like he did in the Kavanaugh hearing.

I’m kind of disappointed he didn’t go all out and moon the Democrats!

[Raven123]

9. Hirono was perfect. Denied him a chance to lie again

[chia]

10. She crushed it, she was awesome n/t

[Iliyah]

11. There is no difference . .

t-rump circle are liars, cheaters, stealers, corrupt, and do not care about the USA.

[Bayard]

12. Snorf!

Mazie--You are a liar.

Lindsay Graham--You are assassinating this man's character.

She was awesome!

[Blecht]

15. Question for Graham

What character?

[TruckFump]

18. Oh, what a perfect response!!! EOM

[Duppers]

20. Graham is a whitewashing liar.

I wish Feinstein would spill her hot coffee on him!

[calimary]

36. I wish we could find out who his lover is.

[Duppers]

38. Yucky snorfs! 😉 Now I've gotta ...

..get that disgusting image outta my head.

We could call 1-800-DC*-hooker. Perhaps they could help. Or, perhaps it's Sarah Sanders?

[trueblue2007]

13. Barr needs to resign now.

[dalton99a]

14. Lying is the No. 1 job requirement in Trumpworld

[superpatriotman]

16. Question is what are WE gonna do about it?

The Constitution is broken. The Executive branch holds all the power. It's time for a Constitutional convention to fix the problems caused by the Founders' 'lack of imagination'

[bigbrother05]

22. Nope, a Constitutional Convention would discard the whole thing

And nobody thinks we could ever get folks with the qualities of the Founders to write a new, better one. Amend as needed, but don't scrap it. There is plenty of imagination in there, Congressional will is lacking.

The problem has been a lazy Congress refusing to act except out of self interest. Most of the problems have come up because Congress wrote laws to cede power to the Executive. Laws passed can be repealed or rewritten to fix problems.

[superpatriotman]

24. Great

Amend. Let's get rid of the electoral college, too.

[calimary]

17. cheney did that, too. Actually had that retort when confronted with uncomfortable truths.

[proud patriot]

25. She's my Senator

We love her

[Chin music]

26. She smoked him.

SMOKED him.
"SUPERMAJORITY"

[CaptYossarian]

27. A lot of her bravery comes from having cancer.

She's got nothing to lose by hitting this d-bag head on.

Imagine what's going through white bread's mind right now. It's like the day Trump gets his perp bracelets put on. The day his bloated, overprivileged lifestyle is over. Maisie Hirono will be alive to see it too.

[Ligyron]

28. Gawd I wish I lived in Hawaii...

[pdsimdars]

30. She was great, as usual.

[SunSeeker]

33. Barr was expecting to be called a liar. He is probably relieved more didn't do so. nt

[calimary]

37. Probably more like he doesn't give a damn.

He clearly does not regard a separate-but-equal branch of government as having any power or authority over him, much less any power and authority to check his "little bit snitty" behavior. ("Snitty." Isn't that the word Barr used, yesterday, for Mueller's written complaints?)

[SunSeeker]

39. True. The Trumplicans think the Supreme Court will protect them.

They might be right.
