Jeff Flake is finally taking a stand on the need to protect Robert Mueller — and it’s infuriating his fellow Republicans.

McConnell needs to see to it Flake doesn’t get a lobbying job in DC. His career should be ended

It’s really irrelevant since Flake and the other Trump haters will be gone in a month.

We got the dynamic duo of Romney and Sasse now.

At least the Arizona Twins are completely gone though. What a relief.

Good idea, leave him no option but to keep Mika’s coffee cup fill and Joe’s back rubbed.

Little Flake. Mental Pygmy of the Senate.

Flake is injuring and ending careers. Maybe one of them will return the favor.

Mueller does not need to be ‘protected’ he needs to be PROSECUTED

The Stupid Party.

* Paul Ryan talks about irregularities in California vote counting.
* Paul Ryan talks about regrets over immigration and other matters.
* Multiple Republicans investigate countless Democrats and pound the table during interviews about wrong doing.
* Republicans complain about Jeff Flake holding them hostage.

And yet, nothing is EVER done about this beyond hot air. Sure, Republican promised to repeal ObamaCare. Sure Republicans funded a border wall in 2006. Sure Republicans put on a great show about Hillary and her emails and countless other illegalities, but Republicans just never seem to be able to do anything about anything — other than putting on a good show to appease the base.

Call me when someone - besides Trump - finds the fortitude to actually do something — anything.
