How do these crooks simply reply in full confidence 'such a nonsense reply'. The biggest tragedy in democracy is that the leaders who get elected are not taken accountable for words. Most of the times they aren't even accountable for their deeds. I heard that the accusations on Biden for misusing his powers for his son's benifit were found true. But, who cared for those revelations about him? Noone, just because, he was not impeached, he wasn't even considered accountable.
Politicians easily deny whatever is not in favour of them and walk as usual. They even don't show a bit of shame!
With Secretary positions you could argue its either worse or not as bad... These positions are appointed by the President and confirmed by the Senate. To get confirmed these individuals often have to testify at least once and kinda prove they are worthy and know what is going on before they get confirmed. The vote to confirm her was pretty bipartisan at 84-15

Pretty much nothing changes anyone's mind, anymore. I think perhaps it used to be different, but partisan tribalism has become so severe that information doesn't cut through. It's literally trying to talk people out of a cult.
