11+ hours yesterday, and he is here this AM still fresh with a coherent, factual opening statement. They are killing it.

1. And that's only the work we see. Imagine the hours that are consumed

behind the scenes preparing for these witnesses. I wish I had half his energy; it's remarkable.

[Happy Hoosier]

3. Yeah, that's what I mean.

These are some dedicated public servants.

And the mind boggling work their staffs do !! It's beyond the pale !

8. An outstanding, highly professional job by Schiff & team.

And in the midst of this raging national shitstorm, Schiff and his staff remind us how law-abiding, rational, caring and committed public servants actually do serve their country’s best needs, far above and beyond what is asked or expected.

9. It's what grownups do. Instead of acting like

spoiled, rotten little brats that got caught with their hand in the cookie jar and are trying to explain how it’s not their fault.

[Baked Potato]

11. And keeping the lazy Republicans up

Having to craft phony baloney statements and questions.

[Happy Hoosier]

12. Their responses are the most ridiculous, facile bullshit. NT
