Watching confirmation hearings

Cornyn talking now. He's slamming democrats instead of questioning her.
How is this a confirmation hearing? I just tuned in so I don't know what happened before.

at times ACB looks a bit fearful. On edit: unless it's her Collins-type "I'm concerned" look.

Trump dropping the ball on CV especially for hearing.
Dangers of infection even in hearings. Talking about ACA and Barret's stand against it.

Amy Hot Dog might as well pull out a coathanger and wave it around. Her arrogant bible thumping ass and hubby are getting confirmed no matter what happens.

Our only hope is a super spreader event.

When I watch on CSpan, I can’t pause on my Spectrum cable.
To test that it is not my remote, I switched over to MSNBC and I was fine with hitting pause.

Can Spectrum control what can be paused?
That seems to be the case.
