Why can't she be held in contempt of court for not answering questions? Why did the guy running the meeting not have any consequences prepared for her? She got away with not answering his questions. So what was the point of the hearing at all? The only weapon they had to force her to answer questions was... hoping she'd do it? What the fuck was the point of this?
The "guy running the meeting" is a Republican. And they're all in on the conspiracy to uphold MAGA and Trump at any cost.
