Miss President wants to talk to you
Page 136
They are very familiar with Hattie Wallace and have devised a unique playing style specifically for her.
However, as soon as the hearing began, the pace of the whole affair suddenly spiraled out of control.
Hattie is like a completely different person.
They launched a sudden attack, catching them completely off guard.
Moreover, sending Faulkner up there was a mistake; that useless guy did absolutely nothing!
Thinking about this, the chairman felt that he had to do something.
At this moment, he only has one choice left.
Let's take a break for now and then find some foreign aid!
This hearing must not continue.
However, we cannot allow outsiders to think that the Southern faction was rendered speechless by Hattie alone.
We must find a reason that is reasonable enough, respectable enough, and preferably one that can shift the blame back to the Ministry of Agriculture.
The chairman's gaze slowly fell on the investigation materials that Hattie had just taken out.
Got it!
Boom boom boom!
Suddenly, the chairman struck the gavel.
"quiet!"
This immediately drew everyone's attention, and the chairman slowly began to speak.
"The Committee notes that, in the proceedings just now, Secretary Wallace cited a document of investigation that had not previously been submitted to the Committee for review..."
"I object!"
Hattie stated directly, "I did not cite the survey materials just now."
"That's something everyone knows; there's no need to provide any special evidence to prove it!"
The chairman did not respond, but continued speaking to himself.
"To ensure the fairness of the hearing process."
"Also to give all relevant personnel a full opportunity to review and respond."
The chairman paused for a moment.
His gaze swept across the press section.
"This committee has decided to request the Ministry of Agriculture to submit a full copy of the cited materials within twenty-four hours."
"And suspend the remaining inquiries for today!"
"The hearing will continue at a later date after the committee completes its preliminary review."
Boom!
The gavel fell!
Amidst the disappointed looks of everyone, the hearing was adjourned and suspended.
Hattie never expected things to turn out this way.
pause?
That despicable Agricultural Committee, they can't win in a head-on confrontation, so they resort to this tactic, huh?
Hattie suddenly remembered that Eleanor had warned him before.
In order to achieve victory, the enemy may resort to any means necessary.
If they gain the upper hand, they will press their advantage.
If they sense things are going badly, they will immediately resort to other means, such as delaying tactics.
Unexpectedly, I actually ran into it.
"The next hearing will definitely be held soon."
Hattie thought to herself, "I need to have a serious talk with Eleanor about what other tricks these guys might pull!"
……
After the recess.
The door to the meeting room behind the Agricultural Committee was tightly closed.
As soon as the chairman returned, he ordered his secretary and stenographer to leave.
At this point, it is no longer appropriate to leave a formal record.
Faulkner sat at the long table, head down, saying nothing.
Although the chairman stopped the hearing in time, preventing him from continuing to embarrass himself on stage.
But the fruitless interrogation he had just endured still left him feeling humiliated.
As for Meriwether
He has recovered quite a bit, but his face is still gloomy.
"We can't let this go!"
Merriweather gritted his teeth, "That woman Wallace isn't here to attend the hearing at all; she's just deliberately trying to cause trouble!"
"okay."
An aged voice suddenly came from deep within the conference room.
Everyone quieted down.
Senator Smith sat by the window.
He did not participate in the House Agriculture Committee hearings, nor did he appear in public.
However, after the recess, he entered through a side door.
This hearing was held at his initiative.
Now that things have escalated to this point, he can't possibly ignore it.
"There are more than a dozen of you."
Smith said slowly, "After preparing for so long, this is the result you produce? You still have the nerve to talk?"
Silence fell over the meeting room.
"You all know what kind of person Wallace is."
"But today, it has become a completely unfamiliar sight to you."
"Why don't you do a proper review and analyze the reasons?"
"Even if we hold a hundred more hearings, the final result will still be a failure."
These words were very serious, and everyone lowered their heads.
"Someone taught her."
At that moment, Meriwether suddenly spoke.
“I’m very familiar with her feeling! I was there in person at the previous bank hearing!”
Almost simultaneously, everyone in the conference room thought of the same name.
Ellino Hopkins.
The chairman nodded and said slowly, "It can only be him."
They had all experienced firsthand the utterly disgusting yet insidious feeling emanating from Hattie today.
too familiar.
That's the taste of Elinor Hopkins!
At this moment, Smith also felt a headache.
Despite having made arrangements to deliberately prevent Eleanor from attending the hearing, this is still the result.
"broken!"
At this moment, the chairman suddenly said, "If that's the case, then continuing the hearing will actually be detrimental to us!"
They didn't know how long Eleanor had trained Hattie.
But the time frame is definitely not long.
Such an effect can be achieved in just a few days.
If this drags on, won't they be the ones who suffer?
Now, being single-minded has become a double-edged sword!
However, Smith didn't pay attention to this trivial matter.
He simply pondered the matter patiently on his own.
Everyone watched him quietly, waiting for the elder to offer guidance.
Finally, Smith finished his long deliberation and slowly began to speak.
"If I remember correctly."
Smith said, "Eleanor Hopkins has no foundation, right?"
The committee chairman nodded:
"Yes, he does not have a family background, nor does he belong to any political faction."
"So young it's laughable."
“Until a few months ago, nobody in Washington knew his name.”
Smith nodded.
