Dagen McDowell blasts 'sexist' Whitehouse for 'hypocritical' speech on 'dark money' at Barrett hearing
Senate Judiciary Committee member Sheldon Whitehouse, D-R.I., spent the time allotted for him to question Supreme Court nominee Amy Coney Barrett Tuesday on a "hypocritical monologue" that claimed "dark money" was behind her nomination, "The Five" co-host Dagen McDowell argued. "I wanted to talk about Sheldon Whitehouse and the hypocritical monologue or lecture that he hacked up in front of her," McDowell began. "[He didn't] ask her one question. Not one. He implied that Amy Coney Barrett is not there because of her accomplishments, because of her intellect, because of how she's lived her life, but that she's there because she's a pawn of dark money.
