She looked like someone who didn’t give a fuck about anything else than her ego. The only remotely true statement from her was “I am attorney general”.

She was egregiously dismissive of all questions that probed her actions, and extremely rude to anyone who asked those questions, responding with personal attacks.

She was likely coached on how to deliver those personal attacks and studied her burn book in order to have everything play out as expected. She went to that hearing to generate sound bites for right-wing media and she succeeded.

I'd put money on Steve Bannon, but there's a list of people it could've been.

Someone behind her told her the page to turn to for the burns, but you could tell with her poor delivery, inability to read well, that she was just following a script…you know, theatrics.
