As we told you during yesterday’s House Intelligence Committee impeachment inquiry hearings, Republican Rep. Elise Stefanik did some serious trampling all over Adam Schiff and the Democrats’ preferred narrative. Here are just a couple of examples:
I know you are rightly not bothering to watch this but you should definitely listen @EliseStefanik when Schifff finally allowed her to speak. Listen and learn what a sham this is. Retweet please. #EliseStefanik#ImpeachmentSham #AmbassadorYovanovich #Schiff pic.twitter.com/i333o1d5te

The facts are clear, confirmed by our witness, Ambassador Yovanovitch: defensive lethal aid was provided to Ukraine not by the Obama Administration, but by the Trump Administration. pic.twitter.com/QBOSFg1pMV

And with that, CNN analyst Susan Hennessey spotted a woman who should have stopped talking and given way to a couple of men:
Stefanik has really trashed her reputation in these hearings and in ways that haven't actually advanced the Republicans cause at all. It's a very bizarre move. Why not just let Nunes and Jordan, who have little to lose by way of reputation, do the dirty work instead?

Stefanik finally gets her turn. With it she does moderately better than Castor in producing some clips for Fox News tonight. Still substantially outmatched on substance and efficacy by the Dems, but I'll give her that it's more effective than Jim Jordan's histrionics.

Yes, Stefanik exposing the Dems’ BS couldn’t hold a candle to Schiff adding a “mean tweet” to the list of potential impeachment charges. *Eye roll*
Translation out of hack-ese: Stefanik has been incredibly effective and has exposed what a sham the Democrats are attempting to perpetrate.

If Stefanik was actually making things worse for Republicans Dems and the media (pardon the redundancy) would want her to keep talking as much as possible.
Oh there have been reputation's trashed…it ain't Elise's

The media's attempt to "takedown" Stefanik is hilarious when you consider they all nodded their heads in seal-like agreement at AOC's economically illiterate proposals. Stefanik made the mistake of being a Republican. https://t.co/FqLYei60nQ

Remember, this is the same CNN analyst who said the Mueller hearing was “devastating to the president.”
You speak for yourself! Many people think she is awesome.

"Persisting" is only good when Democratic women do it, I guess ? https://t.co/Aj6NizU0mN

Weird how that works, right?
