House Dems Say Barr Was Sexist, Hostile at Hearing

House Democrats Madeleine Dean (Penn.) and Pramila Jayapal (Wash.) accused Attorney General William Barr of being sexist and hostile during his contentious Judiciary Committee testimony on Tuesday.

Democrats repeatedly interrupted Barr at the hearing and condemned him as corrupt, racist, and dangerous, but Dean said Wednesday that Barr was "disrespectful" and particularly mistreated women.

"We have to hold him accountable to the American people," Dean said on MSNBC. "You saw his affect yesterday. He was disrespectful, spoke over top of every one of us. In particular, he spoke over women. He was flanked by at least 10 staffers, not a person of color among them…. It was so disrespectful, the way he approached Congress, the way he approached our committee."

The Washington Free Beacon compiled a montage of Democrats repeatedly saying they were "reclaiming my time" during their testy interactions with Barr on Tuesday. On several occasions, Republicans on the Judiciary Committee gave Barr time during their questioning periods to respond to Democratic charges.

um....no.....AG Barr was just blunt, factual and to the point, never backing down once. I guess that kind of behavior is just shocking anymore.

Sounds like they were really more upset that there was "not a person of color among them" than him talking over them. And considering so.e of the morons in Congress, it doesn't take much to talk over them.

Wild Bill Barr sexist? C’mon man!

Sounds normal for them to say that. They always make accusations about others, reference what they do to others. They are a huge embarrassment to man. I never knew if my friends were republican or damorat until recently. Sorry to say it has gotten to this point, but I don’t even associate with that crowd now.

He was brought there to be harassed and made to look like a fool. They failed. There's a reckoning coming that they won't like.

Good for Barr. Too bad he didn't show up with U.S. Marshalls with arrest warrants.

Pramila Jayapal was the one who told Barr, "You are starting to piss me off," as he was trying to answer the question she asked him. But all she wanted to do was "reclaim her time." Well, then why bother to ask the man to come in and testify. If you just wanted to read a statement of your opinion on matters of the day you should have just done that. If you had wanted answers you should have shut up and let him answer. But what you Democrats really want is to discredit Barr and by association the Durham investigation. That is what really has you all freaking out. We see what you are doing.

Barr was fine. He was, however, treated like $hit!!

The Dems are pure hypocrites but we knew that all along. Yes they kept demanding their time back saying it hateful and demonic to Barr just trying to answer the questions they asked. And Jayapal the rudest of them all and people actually in that state voted for that moron. It was every bit a joke of a hearing just like the impeachment was but I pray the public never ever and it goes down in history as just how Democrats conduct themselves when they are supposed to be working and representing their states, for this reason I hope no state ever elects another Democrat they are despicable!!!!!!!

They must not have watched what I watched; he mostly just sat there because they made statements (not questions) and wouldn't let him respond.
