Abortion Senate Hearing Exposes Democrats' Descent into Unreality | Opinion
Democrats and their blue-check-marked allies in the Twittersphere, the command was used to elevate lockdowns and mandatory masking as unquestionable dogma—and to cast opponents of these measures as anti-science.
Some Democrats in 2020 even went so far as to campaign on "bringing science to Washington," touting their education credentials as making them especially qualified to serve in government.Of course, the Democrats' claim to the mantle of science has always been dubious at best.
It should come as no surprise, for example, that the evidence for lockdowns and masking is far shakier than left-wing health officials would care to admit.
But perhaps nothing illustrates Democrats' hypocrisy on this issue better than last week's Senate Judiciary Committee hearing on abortion.The highlight of the hearing was an exchange between Senator Josh Hawley (R-Mo.) and one of the Democrats' witnesses, Khiara Bridges, a professor at the UC Berkeley School of Law.
