Don't ask about Kavanaughs baseball tickets

[u/Weird_Armadillo_508 → u/somuchforsubtlety656]

I just googled “Kavanaugh b—“ and “Kavanaugh baseball ticket debt” immediately came up. How did I miss that? And how did he go into debt over tickets?

How do I go into debt over season tickets? I’ve always wanted season tickets, but thought you needed money.

[u/somuchforsubtlety656 → u/Weird_Armadillo_508]

...and who paid the debt

Welp, I have a rabbit hole to go down for when I finish my work but have to stay on the clock today.

Thank you for sharing this.

Idk why everyone is saying Katie Britt is "looking on in horror" or whatever.

She's just sitting there without a thought in her head, probably wondering when this boring ass meeting is gonna be over.

[u/krautstomp → u/AdWonderful5920]

Her turn to talk was horrific. She kept using biased instead of bias. It drove me nuts. Smith would try to explain and she would cut him off and just want yes or no answers. It was very easy to see through the BS as long as you're not brainwashed.

[u/Weird_Armadillo_508 → u/AdWonderful5920]

You’re right. That is the exact face I make during the 5th meeting that could’ve been an email of the week

[u/Electronic-Minute007 → u/AdWonderful5920]

Being smart is a reasonable bar to expect an elected official to cross. And yet.

[u/pestopete666 → u/AdWonderful5920]

You gotta see the CSPAN clip. Its pure comedy

[u/R3luctant → u/AdWonderful5920]

She has the look of realizing she ate the wrong brownie at lunch.

[u/Weird_Armadillo_508]

Not even putting this here because of politics. But thinking you got a “Gotcha” moment during a hearing and accusing someone of perjury when you confused the Atlanta Hawks and the University of Iowa Hawkeyes is a level of embarrassing I hope to never experience as a sports fan.

they never thought that Jack Smith would attend a women’s game, speaks a lot about those guys mentality

Did Mrs. Britt do the research…?

[u/SplendaDaddiee]

These clowns know of the doom they will face next month and are trying anything to save their party from complete annihilation. Desperate people will go to desperate measures every time

[u/_Saint_Ajora_]

to think, just 20 years ago, someone making a gaffe of this sort at this level would have resigned and their political career would have been over

[u/Weird_Armadillo_508 → u/_Saint_Ajora_]

I’m just old enough to remember when that was the case. From John Edward’s cheating scandal to Howard Dean’s scream, the standard used to be much higher.

Can you humiliate yourself if you have no shame to begin with?

[u/genbio64]

Why does this matter in a discussion on perjury?

[u/dorkpool → u/genbio64]

He claimed Smith perjured himself by saying he didn’t go to Atlanta or the Hawks game. Because the Senator thought he was there, when in fact Smith was in Maryland.

Katie Britt kinda has a Betsy Kettleman thing going on <3

[u/Krow101]

Joining the 100th post club. Congrats.

Has this already been posted? My bad. I just thought mixing up the Atlanta Hawks and Iowa Hawkeyes was funny when I saw it this morning.

[u/Shot_Revolution8828 → u/Weird_Armadillo_508]

Nah, theyre saying youve made 100 posts. Thats it.

[u/Weird_Armadillo_508 → u/Shot_Revolution8828]

Oh really? Wow. I really do get bored at work
