a man in a black sweater is standing in front of a wall with the word phrasing on it . Alt: Sterling Archer saying “Phrasing”, because the post I’m replying to refers to a “big gaping hole” and “ball room” and apparently my humor level is set at “early puberty”. Sorry.

She’s not being evasive here. She’s calling out the Republicans for demanding a closed session and then posting photos online of it.

I mean, yes, she ran cover for Bill but she’s not wrong about the GOP being lying shits either.
