(1,115 posts)I am very impressed with Fiona Hill. Very proud of her.
I do not recall her saying that. She did say something very
similar. I did not take it quite in a helpless (man woman vernacular).
She is very strong and I adore her,

(1,115 posts)You were correct in your post. I am watching Chris Hayes and
your post was correct, I missed it.
Apologies. I agree with you.
Fiona will not bow (recognize) these Republican assholes.
She did not. I am so proud of this person.

(18,837 posts)...I know she was in the middle of a Republican trying to steamroll over her, and she DID say something VERY close to that. She cut off the jerk who was trying to talk over her. That's the best I can do for you.

(748 posts)She just came across with that whip-saw British accent, like, "No, dear. I'm going to finish talking and you're going to be quiet until I'm done. There's a good boy. Thank you."

(1,388 posts)My wife is a mathematician with a PhD. If I had a thousand dollars for every time a male student not only omits Doctor but will not even say Professor, I would have actually benefited from the Trump tax cut.
I am married to an alpha female and have successfully raised another. I long for the day when they will simply be treated as exceptional human beings and not have to prove themselves waste time standing up for the respect that they deserve.
Thank you! And a belated welcome to DU.
