because had media was barred from listening in. doesn't sound shady at all, right, senator? it's a highly influential organization for conservatives and libertarian lawyers. it has served as a vetting pipeline for many republican judicial choices, including gorsuch himself. if you're doubting just how political this event was, other speakers included former haven't mike pence, florida governor ron desantis, ex-trump press secretary kayleigh mcenany. it's not exactly a who's who of bipartisan politicians from both sides of the political divide, is it? does that speakers list sound like a nonpartisan organization to you? senator kennedy, while you seem to be spending a lot of time, energy on the impartiality of a future justice, i can't help but wonder if your time would be better spent worrying about one already on the bench. congratulations, senator. you earned our hypocrisy hot take of the week.
