When Reality Rears Its Head

This is a remarkable Q&A from Eric Swalwell during a House hearing (perhaps earlier today?) on abortion. Despite clearly being stunned by the bizarre answer from a witness, he handles it beautifully. And it again shows impactfully the trouble that conservatives have in dealing with their wish to get rid of all abortions, which sounds great in stump speeches but proving difficult in reality.

I greatly appreciated your posting this tweet; as someone in their 8th decade I stay completely away from “Social Media”

I did have a friend send me the following link that seems to add to the tweet you published

Thank you for being my semi-social media source!

Thanks. Yes, our motto: "We dive into social media so you don't have to."

I'd seen some of Eric Swalwell's comments quoted, but hadn't seen the video, so yes, that's a good companion piece.
