Doing What She Does Best
Doing what she does best, she brought what she learned in the Californian court when questioning witnesses during hearings. One notable instance is her interrogation of then-AG Jeff Sessions in relation to the Russia investigation in 2017. Her style led her to go viral and catch the ire of Republican senators.
After over three minutes of grilling, Sessions admitted that being rushed made him nervous. Harris used the same technique when she questioned Brett Kavanaugh about whether he had talked about the Mueller investigation with others. Building this kind of no-nonsense reputation, she gained her own following.
