YouTube Description
as posted by the channelSupreme Court nominee Amy Coney Barrett admits to needing a glass of wine at the end of the second day of the Senate Judiciary Committee hearing.
Her comments came during an exchange with Democratic Sen. Richard Blumenthal of Connecticut, who asked Barrett if she "got some rest last night?"
"I did have a glass of wine," said Barrett. "I'll tell you that I needed that at the end of the day."
Barrett is currently in her third day of the committee confirmation hearing.
Shortly after the exchange with Blumenthal, the hearing paused for about 40 minutes because of audio difficulties.
The sound in the hearing room cut out a little before 2 p.m. Wednesday, after around five hours of questioning. The senators are completing 20-minute rounds of questioning and might do a final round of 10 minutes each. Wednesday is the final day of questioning.
The audio cut out again around 3 p.m., and the hearing took another unexpected break.
