EXCERPT:
TAPPER: “Do you have any evidence that he’s a left-wing activist? Do you — do you have any idea what kind of work he was doing at HHS?”
BANKS: “Yeah. Here’s what I know, Jake. He’s an instigator. He’s in the hallways of the Senate office buildings every day chasing down Republicans like me and cheering for Democrats who walk through the hallway. So it doesn’t take a whole lot here to deduce from that, he is a left-wing activist.”
