    Cornyn thought he had #SallyYates in a corner on why she opposed the Muslim Travel Ban and she put their own words to her back on them.

        Trying to discredit her. Reminds me of the tone taken with HRC at the Benghazi hearings. A dick move by the incompetent Republicans.

        Sally Yates just straight up played Cornyn for the fool he is. Imagine having her as our AG, not Sessions.

        That was a beautiful thing - she stayed so calm, cool & collected as she destroyed him.

        It's becoming evident that Sally rose to where she did in the DOJ for good reason.

        I wish this was less bipartisan because it should be in both sides' interest to pursue this, but damn that was satisfying.

        Also he probably didn't get the memo that that executive order was considered unconstitutional by many people beside and after her.

        Yates should wear Cornyn's "disappointment" as a badge of honor.

        Also, let's not overlook how condescending and dickish he was being. I was actually kind of stunned by his demeanor.
