On two consecutive days, hearings conducted by the Senate Judiciary Committee were suspended when Republicans invoked the rarely used "two hour rule" that states no hearing can run more than two hours.

ANP cameras were covering both hearings as part of ongoing stories and were able to capture the latest moves in the political chess match both parties are currently waging on Capitol Hill.

  • Wow...Wow.....Wow they don't even name the republican senator whos being a little bitch. Our government is f'cked up. Proud to be an american! Were at least I know were sheep! I can't wait till the day we take to the streets (everyone stock up on your firearms it's the only way this governments every gonna change.)

  • SHAME SHAME SHAME on Republicans! Why are they so afraid of hearing the truth? And they have the nerve to complain about other nation-states who repress the truth. If people elect Republicans in November, SHAME on them, and look for the PEOPLE to take charge.

  • Democracy= 1 doesn't rule the whole. 

  • @rapcrap187 oh i also forgot to add

    as much as i love the idea of a revolution, total anarchy is tantamount. unless organised. but hope it doesnt turn into terrorism.

  • @rapcrap187 Plus les choses changent le plus qu'ils restent les mêmes.

    translate it Yo!

  • He should have just said "fuck, that asshole proceed with the hearing"

    Who thought up this bullshit 2 hour rule? Some asshole who wants to go to lunch by 12:00pm?

  • If you want to play hardball, just continue the talks. The truth will out and in the context of the proceeding, the truth would be even more impressive. As long as these guys bow low, on certain occasions, we will all be victims of secret agendas

  • @rapcrap187

    I don't think he can name him. It could be an invisible hold kind of thing.

    Where a minority party senator ( in this case republican) just tells the minority leader he doesn't consent to the two-hour rule being suspended and the minority leader can than relay that message to the committee chair, without having to name that senator, just saying there is one.

  • We should listen to each others ideas and not say shit like, obamas a loser, ruining our country etc, or Bush covered shit up and lied. So people fuck up, we should rally back around an american identity.

  • what a game they play. julius caesar was right, who needs a senate? lol

  • This is terrifying! Cover up cover up cover up! The people should control their government, not be ruled by them. Unfortunately so few take the time to inform themselves. Thank you for posting this!

  • It doesn't really matter
