RADDATZ: You have also raised concerns about the need to pass legislation to protect the special counsel. Republicans in the senate will need support from Democrats, obviously, to pass the end of the year budget bill in a few weeks.

MURPHY: Im still very worried about it. You know, I am certainly going to look at all of our options to try to force a vote on legislation that would protect the special counsel. Im also worried about General Kelly leaving the White House.
