Perhaps there was some other part of the hearing that I missed where Mr. Lewandowski perjured himself. ~Max ---

> [@Fiddle\_Peghead](#): > > Please, which lawsuit is this? Committee on the Judiciary, US House of Representatives, v. Donald F. McGahn II. A link to a Lawfare discussion about its importance in this fight is [here](https://www.lawfareblog.com/little-noticed-way-mcgahn-litigation-could-shape-congressional-oversight). Nadler filed a motion to expedite the hearing of the case in late August. ---

This whole damn thing should have started and ended with Berke. Instead Fox news can conveniently leave out his questioning in favor of footage showing Democrats looking like idiots. ---

> [@lisiate](#): > > Here’s [the Berke segment](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IrlDGvuUxMY) for those who enjoy a good examination. Just wanna add, if you have not been a lawyer conducting a deposition, or questioning a hostile witness, it might be hard to imagine how incredibly frustrating it is (at least for me) to have to work so hard against a clearly lying scumbag who is doing whatever they can to waste your time and refuse answering even the most straightforward question. ---

Quite the converse, I am not a lawyer and have not ever interviewed a hostile witness, yet I find it hard to imagine myself in Mr. Berke’s place without jumping down, grabbing Mr. Lewandowski by the collar, and yelling “give me a straight answer, dammit!” ~Max [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/wtf-lewandowski/840412.md?page=1)
