Q So your obtaining of a radio, and your taking the class, and your sitting for the exam and ultimately passing and receiving the license, it had nothing to do with your employment at Fusion GPS?
A It was well before.
The classic tell for lying is the old non-responsive answer to the question. She wasn’t asked when. And lo and behold, her non-responsive claim of “well before” being hired was a complete lie, designed to mislead. She got the license WELL AFTER she joined GPS Fusion.
Suggestion for House and Senate republican leaders: Hire someone to train Congressional nitwits on how to question liars properly, or don’t bother with hearings.
Nice catch...
There’s the old saying that a prosecutor never asks a question unless he already knows the answer.
