Telling you right now that I will not be live tweeting the Barr hearing because I don't want to lose my entire career telling you what I think about Bill Barr in real time.
Everybody has fought a Gym Jordan in their life. Somebody who is shouty and speaking quickly and saying nothing, but seems so seething and violent it's almost scary.
The thing to remember when arguing those people in real life is the line "Nobody, not even Daddy, loves you."

The Democratic response to the Republican video of "violence"(???) I guess, should be to show the 8 minutes and 46 seconds of George Floyd getting choked out. But I bet Dems aren't ready with that smoke.
4yo: What is this?
Me: It's Republicans trying to scare people so Republicans can keep beating people.
4yo: I'm not scared.
Me: I know. Because you're black.
4yo: [confused look]
Me: Go be not scared while you play.

Bill Barr's invocation of John Lewis (and my reaction to it) is why I'm not doing a play by play.
Fact check: Barr says rioters and anarchists have been wreaking "senseless havoc."
-- Senseless? Putting aside of the question of "havoc," Bill Barr has ignored every Congressional subpoena until this one. So, at the very least, the "havoc" put his lying ass in a chair.

While the 4yo has been left the contemplate his blackness, the 7yo chimes in:
7yo: I need the vacuum.
Me: Why?
7yo: Glitter.
Wife: Where did the glitter come from?
7yo: You don't want to know.

Barr says they're on the "defense" in Portland and that the cops are operating *inside* the perimeter of the courthouse.
This is a LIE. It's a lie that he was ALWAYS going to stick to. THERE IS VIDEO OF COPS outside the "perimeter." Where is that video? COME ON TEAM!

Total non-sequitur apropos of nothing: I love @danielsgoldman.
Don't know why I just thought of that? I'm just, like, wondering what he's doing today. Is he okay? I hope he's okay.

What Bill Barr sees when he thinks of protesters in Portland who need to be beaten half to death.
Turned it off. Watching nature program. Sorry, fans, I do not make enough money to put my brain at risk like this. Maybe if I could throw a football, the cost/benefit would be worth it, but I don't make enough to risk "GOP induced CTE."
