Why doesn’t congress just investigate and charge these people and go straight to a hearing instead of wasting of time and money on these testimonies where they’ll just lie anyway?
*lie under oath or ignore questions
…where both will lie repeatedly, get caught in at least one “Gotcha!” moment that the press will run with, and nothing meaningful will happen as it’s pure theater.
Starting off by kissing his and Trump’s asses, I see.
Rubio is such a disgrace. I understand the motivation of the other trash in this admin because they are just there to get trump rich but little marco knows better which make him one of the worst to me.
Is he going to talk about why the US spent $150b to achieve and open Strait of Hormuz, which was already open before the war?
Is that Rubio’s kid behind him? He’s struggling to stay awake.
And of course Rubio is passing the buck to Iran when it’s been Trump each time trashing the peace deals. He flat-out doesn’t care if the whole world burns as long as he milks Congress out of that $1.5 trillion. Quit being a wuss Rubio. Tell the truth. No matter what you do, Trump is going to fire you anyway.
