Questioning witnesses in the first impeachment hearing staged by House Republicans, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez prompted each to say they were not presenting “firsthand witness accounts” of crimes committed by Joe Biden.

I mean, the stupid thing is that they’re not even bothering to fabricate evidence, they’re just fabricating the entire accusation and not presenting any evidence at all. Their first witness even said point blank that there’s no reason to be doing any of this; so as usual, not only are they criminally partisan, but they’re also really bad at it.
