Graham still more concerned with the fire alarm instead of the fire. Everything she said to him about "unmasking" went in one ear and out the other

All things considered he's not that bad in this hearing imo.

My main problem with him in this hearing is after she answers his question and attempts to clarify something it goes in one ear and out the other with him instead of acknowledging what she said

These Republicans keep forgetting the name of this hearing...

Trying to talk about everything but Russia

If you're speaking upon the "unmasking" questions, How is that not relevant?

Grilling Yates over the Muslim ban is not relevant to the Russia investigation

President Trump's administration says his tax cut will pay for itself. It turns out it's really hard to find an economist who agrees.

The University of Chicago's Booth School of Business regularly polls economists on controversial questions. In a survey the school published last week on Trump's tax plans, only two out of the 37 economists that responded said that the cuts would stimulate the economy enough to cancel out the effect on total tax revenue.

Those two economists now both say they made a mistake, and that they misunderstood the question.

“I screwed up on that one,” said one of those two economists, Kenneth Judd, when asked about his response to Trump's tax claim. “I meant to say that this is a horrible idea, a bad idea — no chance in hell.”

The other respondent who said that Trump's tax cuts would pay for themselves was Bengt Holmström of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, who confirmed in an email to The Washington Post that he had also misread the question.

Besides Judd and Holmström, another 35 economists said that the tax cuts would not finance themselves, and five more did not answer the question.

In total, there is not one economist in the Chicago poll who believes that Trump's cuts would pay for themselves, suggesting his administration might not be able to deliver on a crucial promise.

Those dudes grilling her (and prob trump) looked like they felt so threatened by her because they know she is smarter and more knowledgeable about her craft they are. It's so obvious with those questions and answers. Their intelligence levels are drastically different.
