On the questioning of Christine Ford by Prosecutor Rachel Mitchell on behalf of the republican majority on the Senate Judiciary Committee:
Lindsay Wise @lindsaywise
Sen. Claire McCaskill, a former prosecutor, has sympathy for Mitchell:“I can’t imagine doing either a direct examination or a cross-examination in five-minute increments. And she’s not used to cross-examining people who are telling the truth.”

“Sympathy for Mitchell.” That’s interesting old media spin.
“…she’s not used to cross-examining people who are telling the truth.”
And who did Rachel Mitchell question at the hearing? Christine Ford.
Rachel Mitchell did get to ask a few questions of Brett Kavanaugh (r), but was apparently yanked after the “I like beer” exchange.
