Thanks for posting this. I am a big fan of Sheldon Whitehouse, I always enjoy watching him in action, and he was great here. But this video was.... not quite as advertised.

Seriously, whoever wrote the title for this must have been high, or something. That wasn't even CLOSE to an explosion. I guess "Sheldon Whitehouse Speaks Sternly About Todd Blanche Nomination 'Fraud Upon the Court' Allegations" just wouldn't have been click baitey enough. I get that. But I think this may be the most wildly exaggerated click bait title I've ever seen. Thanks, Financial Express, for building my hopes up way too high!

Don't get me wrong... I really enjoyed this video. I just would have enjoyed it even more if I hadn't been waiting for an explosion that never came.
