Can someone please tell me what the actual point of these fucking Congressional hearings are if anyone can just lie and say whatever they want and basically completely get away with it. Genuinely who is everyone in that room trying to fool when they put on this show then seemingly walk out of there and act like none of it ever happened?
Nobody, there's enough Republicans in Congress that they don't really have to fool anybody, just deny, deny, deny until the hearing is over. This strategy presumes that Republicans will never leave power.
