So old Chuck has been compromised and also "pledged" loyalty to Mad King Don the Con and Mother Russia?

I don't think that will play well in Iowa....

15. Grassley's credibility was already on thin ice. For his entire career.

all along, senators and representatives, even the ones on the Judiciary Committee.

Before Comey was fired, their standard pat answer was always that they expected the FBI probe and the congressional intelligence committees to sufficiently answer any suspicions that the Democrats have posed about Russian interference in our Election.

On Tuesday, a couple of them said that Comey's firing was troubling, but since then, they act like it's no big deal, whatsoever (even the same ones who thought it was "troubling" on Tuesday).

Yesterday, Grassley said he wasn't that concerned about Rosenstein's involvement in the firing and that if Rosenstein wanted to talk about it, he'd talk with him.

Not a one of them give two figs about Sessions being involved in any of this and none think that an Independent Prosecutor is necessary, either.

When pressed about it on the cable news shows, some have used that term "hoax" and "partisan attack" repeatedly, and laugh at serious questions on fears that our nation's very democratic processes have been threatened by Russia.

They DO NOT give a shit, nary a one of them, not one bit. It's all party politics to them.

They're playing this whole thing like it's a team sport, a team with no ethics, democracy be damned.
