Congressional hearings seem made for TV. Executives whose companies are under fire or nominees for public office take an oath to tell the truth and settle in for hours of withering questions from lawmakers. To many at home, those questions and answers may sound more like speeches.
Last week brought three more contentious hearings. One featured Attorney General Pam Bondi and focused mostly on the Jeffrey Epstein files. The others, involving Homeland Security officials, explored immigration enforcement in Minnesota.
