Where does it say Congressional committee hearings...

..require cross examinations? It's an investigatory process, not a trial. Committee members ask questions, witnesses respond.

Gym Jordan keeps whining about no cross examinations and Brit Hume in the tweet brings it up. And Thompson has extended invitations to anyone who wants to debate the facts...which is the last thing Jordan wants to do.

Kinzinger nailed it.

Real journalism requires lots of hard work. Being a lackey at Faux pays well and requires little hard work.

There IS no "both sides" here. There is truth; there is Falsehood. Care to take a guess where the falsehood is coming from? If you have been doing this for so many years, as you claim, and can't figure it out, you're an idiot, and you need to get out of the journalism business. You know damn good and well that *one side* REFUSED to participate in any spirit of finding truth, except for L. Cheney and A. Kinzinger. So that side can just proceed with self-fornication, and you have our permission to join them.

STFU.

if the likes of Gym Jordan and Matt Gaetz were involved? They would be two-hour sessions of poo flinging with nothing accomplished except headline grabbing.
