Ugh, the poor family of the victim.
Also, thank god they pursued and got 2nd-degree murder for Chauvin. The 3rd-degree count seems to be messily written and this could've happened in that case too.

McKayla Maroney is mincing no words. Just an incredibly brave woman. I'm deep cleaning my fridge to cope with the rage. I appreciate you sharing the link. I missed the beginning but I wanted to make sure to see this one. There's just so much.

Dianne looks pretty good. I was nervous by her relative silence during August recess. But homegrown needs to take the lesson of the close call on the recall and make her graceful exit.

Looks like about half the Republican commitment members didn't show up or log on to hear the victims' testimony

Also I'm a wee irritated that all but 3 have just talked and not asked the women any questions.

Aly's comment right there. Ugh. To feel that additional guilt when she did everything she could. I'm so mad.

I feel like some of the senators are missing some of the points. Like Nassar is just one piece of the puzzle. So many people are responsible. And Nassar wasn't the only one. USAG and the USOC absolutely perpetuated the culture. Steve Perry should be held accountable somehow. I don't know; I might not be making sense. My thoughts are very jumbled.

Aly and MaKayla made that abundantly clear in their opening statements.
They were asked about Safe Sport and Aly wanted to trash them completely but respectfully said basically it was the fox watching the henhouse

I was very annoyed with points given by Democrats and Republicans. Like what? Do any of you know why you are here today?

When she said "I'm trying to be respectful here" I said "I'll say it - it's fucking bullshit." to my tablet. I've taken the trainings and they are worthless.

I wonder why Jim Comey isn't there. He was Director in 2015.

I think FBI procedures need to change so that high level cases like this are sent to the head office.
