In reply to the discussion: Body language expert, Dr. Jack Brown, tweeting analysis during the hearing [View all]Leith
(7,809 posts)6. Very interesting
It sounds like yesterday's Volker, Morrison, and today's rethugs with Sondland have had time to synch their story and got it well memorized.
Yesterday, my internal BS alarm went off with Morrison every time he did his famous looking up thing. I tried it (looking up like that), then asked myself what I'm doing. The answer was I was trying to recall something that I had memorized (like when taking a difficult test). The clincher was when he talked about his opinion of Vindman's reliability and judgment (his role in the smear job). It will be very interesting to hear what Dr. Hill will say about that tomorrow.

Has anybody made an animated GIF of Morrison's twirly-eye thing? Hilarious to watch.

Nice and to the point, thanks. Usually the experts go into so much minutiae, it is stifling

Christ, this guy again. Who needs an "expert" to come to these conclusions?

Sondland was very fidgety ... annoying and distracting... like he had ants in his pants.

He's got some great stuff in his feed. I tend to agree with his assessments.

body language has a lot of pseudoscience in it, but it's hard to argue with these
