Amy Coney Barrett can certainly hold her own against Democratic senators — as she’s so clearly and marvelously demonstrated.
But that doesn’t mean we can’t enjoy watching Ted Cruz take his own turn in the ring.
.@TedCruz: "The last three days of hearings have revealed very good news…
Judge Barrett is going to be confirmed, by this committee and by the full Senate…
We've seen that our Democratic colleagues have very few questions actually to raise about [ACB's] qualifications." pic.twitter.com/Y3aJRgM6vY

Sheldon Whitehouse made a complete ass of himself yesterday. And he’s doubling down today:
Something is not right around the Supreme Court and #DarkMoney has a lot to do with it. Follow the money around Supreme Court nominees. pic.twitter.com/LEAESxes64

But Whitehouse isn’t doubling down in person:
HAHAHAHAHHA @SenWhitehouse left because he didn't want to be there to get destroyed by @SenTedCruz again today!!!

Whitehouse got his clock cleaned by Cruz yesterday, it’s true. Who could blame him for wanting to hide from Cruz today?
Hell, if we were Sheldon Whitehouse, we’d lie low, too!
"I wish Sen. Whitehouse were here…I was feeling a little bit bad that I didn't have a chart with red fuzzy yarn…"
In the words of Whitehouse: "think about it."

You guys:
Video thread: Since Sheldon Whitehouse decided to go on another conspiracy theory-laden tangent again today, @TedCruz also decided (rightly) that he had to take Whitehouse to school. And it was glorious (1/) pic.twitter.com/E7f4UQ3HGZ

It really was.
BEAST MODE TED CRUZ RIGHT NOW
CALLING OUT @SenWhitehouse CORRUPTION
WHITEHOUSE SOLD A JUDGESHIP TO @JackMcCJr

Watch:
Like the absolute savage that he is, @TedCruz brings up Demand Justice AND then the story of one Judge John McConnell who, prior to becoming a judge, was a generous donor to Whitehouse. (2/) pic.twitter.com/2us3z9c8SH

Before going to judicial activism, @TedCruz notes that, Whitehouse donor John McConnell was appointed as a federal judge and now sits on the Judicial Code of Conduct. And has he been doing there? Trying to ban judges from being Federalist Society members. (3/3) pic.twitter.com/KNHA1SJDsG
