Dem Senator walks out of Ted Cruz's Antifa hearing: 'I don't think you listen' [Hirono]
Fox News ^ | 08/05/2020 | Marisa Schultz

Tensions flared at a Senate hearing on Antifa when a top Democrat walked out of the room declaring she couldn’t sit through Sen. Ted Cruz’s rhetorical speeches any longer.

The dustup occurred when Cruz, R-Texas, blasted Democrats for not condemning Antifa more directly for the violence and destruction that has taken hold in certain U.S. cities in the wake of George Floyd’s death in Minneapolis.

But Sen. Mazie Hirono, D-Hawaii, said Cruz just wasn’t listening during the more than three-hour hearing when Democrats said violence is not acceptable.

“Sometimes I don’t think you listen,” Hirono told Cruz at the Senate Judiciary subcommittee hearing as he finished up with a nearly 10-minute speech. “So, how many times have I had to say that we all should be denouncing violent extremists of every stripe.”

“Does that include Antifa?” said Cruz, who was chairing the hearing.

“I have the time,” Hirono shot back.

“…I hope this is the end of this hearing, Mr. Chairman, and that we don’t have to listen to any more of your rhetorical speeches,” Hirono concluded. “Thank you very much. I’m leaving.” …

LOL Mazie! Her likeness should be carved on the side of a Hawaiian volcano. The hot lava spews out of her mouth. Azzes to ashes.

We need to add an amendment to the constitution, only those people U.S. born shall hold any office of government of any kind, including schools to the highest office of the land, any and all, meaning from the janitor to the CEO.

Also to include any system that is vital, roads, communication, power, research, TEACHERS, medical, etc, etc...

Also to include any contractor hired to work within the continental U.S.

Feel free to add to this list.

Hirono doesn’t belong anywhere near power in DC or anywhere else. What the hell is wrong with Hawaii sending such an idiot to Washington?

Pat her on the head and give her a Teddy bear, Ted. You might have some left over from patrolling the border. Or, play her some tunes...

Mazie Hirono refused to acknowledge the clear unequivocal evidence of violence by ANTIFA and BLM, two organizations funded and supported by the Democrat Party.

Hirono is either in denial or a nefarious bitch of the highest order, a genuine liberal fascist lurking behind her Bolshevik eye glasses.

Let the truth set America Free.

President Trump will win despite them.

Senator, about those retroactively applied hyphens.

“In 2000, respondents were allowed to pick more than one race for the first time. The “race” data item retained essentially the same categories as in 1990 with a few adjustments. “Black or Negro” became “Black, African Am., or Negro” marking the first appearance of “African-American” on the Census form.”

HIRONO ONCE SAID: "Dems have hard time connecting to voters because they know so much"

Hirono, 71, said Democrats need to stop speaking in a way that comes off as manipulative or strokes fear and resentment. “But we have a really hard time doing that and one of the reasons-- it was told to me at one of our retreats-- was that we Democrats know so much, that is true. And we have kind of have to tell everyone how smart we are and so we have a tendency to be very left brain," she continued. The left-hand side of the brain is often associated with analytical thought.

The first-term senator gained widespread notoriety as a leading Democratic voice for the women who accused against Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh of sexual misconduct. She urged men to "shut up and step up" when the Senate was confirming Kavanaugh to the court.

“Hirono is an insignificant twit”

Except her vote counts the same as Cruz’s, which is scary.
