I don't have a TV. It sounds like it is the women

Who are really kicking ass here.

These are the people who are going to save this country.

I know that as a woman I am really sick of these condescending stupid old white men - and some of the younger ones,too.

Klobuchar
Hirono
Harris

Three of the strongest women I've seen.

And then you have the 2 Republican women. Ernst and Blackburn are an embarassment

She would make a great president.

I so hope Ernst gets soundly defeated next year.

I think she was a district attorney prior to that.

She knows how this stuff works and the questions she needs to ask.

I am so proud if these fearless women.

They are not afraid to speak truth to power. And they aren't backing down one inch.

They are knocking these slimy assholes back into the holes from which they crawled.

You can watch all the hearings live on the internet.

I just watched it on the Washington Post live stream.

Hearings are available on PBS, YouTube, and sometimes CNN and MSNBC.

They are all FREE on the internet.

Example:

Google: Barr hearing live stream.

All the choices will come up on the first page.

You don't have to have a subscription to any service like Hulu, Prime, or

the YouTube site that charges a monthly fee.

Hope that helps.

Have a great day.
