Telling pictures from the Kavanaugh hearings.

https://www.cnn.com/2018/09/04/politics/gallery/brett-kavanaugh-hearings/index.html

There were three pics that caught my eye.

1. The close-up shot of Kavanaugh's mug. His mouth is very pinched.

These are not friends of ordinary people. Trump voters have been hoodwinked.

the flat, shark-like affect of Ms. Bash's eyes.

She looks soulless.
