It's not though, bc the first investigation was led by his co conspirators, the gop. To say that the gops questioning and conclusions of same, is truthful, is a laugh. Don jr testified for HOW many hours Don? Bullcrap. Plus he was allowed to use ridiculous privileges that don't even exist for him, at the time he was testifying. "Atty-client privilege" etc. Remember?
That's why we voted in a wave of Democrats. check...and eventually, mate. Now the adults will decide the truth of the matter and the Democrats will save this country again.

there is SO much of this s**t that so simply defies logic - to say "It's maddening" doesn't even come close. I mean, really, how can ANY civil society sit by and watch this idiot do what he does and just accept it as the norm?

YES, it is maddening, and leaves one so sad to consider that too many people don't even get it.

Joseph Goebbels, in full Paul Joseph Goebbels, (born October 29, 1897, Rheydt, Germany—died May 1, 1945, Berlin), minister of propaganda for the German Third Reich under Adolf Hitler. A master orator and propagandist, he is generally accounted responsible for presenting a favourable image of the Nazi regime to the German people. Following Hitler’s suicide, Goebbels served as chancellor of Germany for a single day before he and his wife, Magda Goebbels, poisoned their six children and took their own lives.

Hearings are supposed to be televised.

House Committees

As a general rule, House committee hearings and meetings are open to the public. House committees may vote to close a meeting or hearing if disclosure of matters to be considered would endanger national security, would compromise sensitive law enforcement information, would tend to defame, degrade, or incriminate any person, or otherwise would violate a law or rule of the House. They must announce the date, place, and subject matter of hearings to the public at least a week in advance in the Daily Digest and on their websites. For links to House committee websites, see the House Committee Portal.

Completely barring press cameras from this hearing violates the 1st Amendment. See, Nebraska Press Association v. Stuart (1976) 427 U.S. 539.
