Well, that appears to be a pretty good case of perjury.

She doesn’t have to threaten directly. The record indicates affirmative bias.

I don’t think the repubs care a whit about doing anything except filibursting the hearing till it’s overdonegone.

I think the word you’re reaching for here is:

filibuster

actually, no. i said what i meant.

they’re not just filibustering.

they’re trying to burst the seams of this hearing and cause a food-fight.

thanks for the attempt to help, tho.
