The Senate Judiciary Committee will hold hearings on her nomination starting tomorrow at 10am. The committee is now headed by Sen. Chuck Grassley (R-IA).<\/p>\n<p>The committee has released its witness list. Looking it over there are <a href=\"http:\/\/www.judiciary.senate.gov\/meetings\/attorney-general-nomination\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">some very interesting names on the list<\/a> such as Sharyl Attkisson, Catherine Engelbrecht of True the Vote, and Sheriff David Clarke of Milwaukee. You have to wonder if they will discuss Operation Fast and Furious, the hacking of Attkisson&#8217;s computer, the targeting of conservative non-profits by the Obama Administration, the vilification of law enforcement by Holder, and other such topics. I would also note that Professors Rosenkranz and Turley both are affiliated with the libertarian Cato Institute.<\/p>\n<p>The full list is below:<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"tr_bq\"><p>\n<i><b>Witnesses<\/b><\/i><br \/>\n<i><br \/><\/i><br \/>\n<i><b>Panel I<\/b><\/i><br \/>\n<i><br \/><\/i><br \/>\n<i>Loretta Lynch<\/i><br \/>\n<i>U.S. Attorney For The Eastern District Of New York<\/i><br \/>\n<i>U.S. Department of Justice<\/i><br \/>\n<i>Brooklyn , NY<\/i><br \/>\n<i><br \/><\/i><br \/>\n<i><b>Panel II<\/b><\/i><br \/>\n<i><br \/><\/i><br \/>\n<i>Sharyl Attkisson<\/i><br \/>\n<i>Investigative Journalist<\/i><br \/>\n<i><br \/><\/i><br \/>\n<i>David Barlow<\/i><br \/>\n<i>Partner<\/i><br \/>\n<i>Sidley Austin LLP<\/i><br \/>\n<i><br \/><\/i><br \/>\n<i>David A.
