Specifics. jim jordon telling c nrnn he ne divulged nifinformation that shd not be answered. they have been careful not to divulge anything to break house rules. they have been trying to help guide them as white house lawyers try to shape the legal strategy and as we know a big sticking point for the administration is they dont have lawyers in the room during the hearings and the white house is turning to allies on capitol hill to help them. >> im sure they are getting plenty of help. thanks ver...

"council culture," lashing out on social media against those with whom you disagree. watch. >> this idea of purity and you were never compromised and you are always clinically woke and all that stuff, you should get over that quickly. if i tweet or hashtag about how you didnt do something right, because man, you see how woke i was, i called you out? thats not activism. thats not bringing about change. >> he went on to urge people to be more compromising and accepting, because "there are ambiguit...
