The Senate Homeland Security Committee's oversight hearing on February 12 at 9 AM should be very interesting. Two panels of witnesses: Todd Lyons & co. and Minnesota officials & reps (including MN AG Keith Ellison).

Bright lines, always. North Star.

And he didn't leave any of the nannies behind either.

I watch a lot of Congressional hearings (since T 1.0). MOC, even those who are lawyers, don't know how to ask Q's. Just read a script staffers wrote for them. Swalwell's not like that; he tends to have an edgy quality to his Q's.

FWIW, I watched the hearing. Garbarino (chair) was even-handed in enforcing rules. A GOPer tried to go over his time for Q'ing & kept pushing Garbarino to let him but Garbarino, calmly but firmly, wouldn't let him do it. I've watched his committee before. He's fair in dealing with both sides.

And (I think) the respective Rules adopted by the Senate and House prohibit a senator/rep from calling a colleague a name or 'personally' attacking them.

And "Hon" without the "." doesn't work for me either.

Against the backdrop of his closing argument in the trial, Sen. Schiff reflects on what hasn't changed and what has. This is powerful and worth watching. Please share.

I hope somewhere before/after you get the eggs, your MIL said something like 'Oh, you're always so nice to me, unlike my friend Anne's SIL who....'

For starters, (former) owners who sold their properties (and any real estate licensees who got commissions from the sales).

I look forward to Rand Paul & co. asking Lyons to expand on latter's "treating [deportation] like a business" "like [Amazon] Prime, but with human beings" at Feb. 12 hearing of Senate Homeland Security hearing.

Not to worry. Sometimes my fingers have a will of their own. My wireless mouse definitely does.

Local businesses refusing to serve them or sell them stuff, as Minneapolis is doing.
