The top Republican on the House Judiciary Committee, Georgia Rep. Doug Collins, voted for the resolution calling for any final report in Special Counsel Robert Mueller’s Russia investigation to be made public, but told Fox News o“It was a political stunt by the Democrats who felt that they could divide Republicans into voting no upon it because at the end of the day after I looked at it, when they dropped it … they said this is nothing but simply a first-year law student’s restatement of what the regular regulations say that Mr. (Attorney General William) Barr is going to have to do,” he said on “Sunday Morning Futures” with Maria Bartiromo.
The House voted unanimously Thursday for the resolution, a symbolic action designed to urge Barr into releasing as much information as possible when the investigation is concluded.n Sunday it was unnecessary.

Doug Collins’ star is rising folks. The man’s a patriot.
“Doug Collins’ star is rising folks. The man’s a patriot.”
Yes one of the very, very few! Add in Mark Meadows, Jim Jordan, Matt Gaetz and a couple more, and you have the sum total of the decent, Republicans in both Houses. The Senate has virtually none.
There are so few. I hope they give courage to others and their numbers grow.
Thanks Innovative.
My Congress-critter, also from GA, Jody Hice, is a solid Christian and has values.
His office gives me copies of the US Constitution to hand out to local high school students.

And you know, THAT IS the biggest problem we face in this country today. And sadly, the odds are against us in replacing the current $hit that passes for Republicans in elective office in this country today. As it has nearly always been, we are being held hostage by our collective choices for Congressmen and Senators. We have made unfortunate, probably uninformed selections, aided by the monied crap that pays for the media pumping up of these worthless a$$holes. And of the two, the Senate is the thorniest problem with their six year terms of office. We risk the “loss of control” of the Senate in trying to turn it into an instrument that will function with our marvelous President, instead of “constantly dicking him.” Really, the only “good” that has come out of the Senate is the approval of Trump’s judicial appointments, so if we try to “fix” the Senate next year and loose it to the RATs, Trump’s remaking of the Judiciary will be over. We still have, really poor options. Get rid of Collins, and you would probably get a RAT. And we and better hope we can hang onto the seats being vacated by Roberts and Alexander. I would hope though, that NC “offs” Tillis.
I don’t watch TV anymore so, that video/interview was very informative for me. You all should watch it.
Good riddance to Goodlatte. What kept him from releasing the information that Collins has? Collins seems to take the job seriously like Nunes does.
LOL... Thats up there with Q-Anon crap.
My Congress critter is a deaf mute. Never heard Trent Kelley speak.
Actually, it’s not.
Not much chance NC RNC drops Tillis; they love him per the Cumberland Co GOP. I used to love him but if Trump wanted somebody else I’d go door to door and make those phone calls. I protested the GOP to the CC RNC when McCain and the senator Rube (Rubio) violated us over Immigration in 2014-2015 and voted with Obama and DNC; it didn’t much else but seeing Romney screw us when he didn’t try to win the presidency and finally I broke 100% formally in another letter to the CC GOP/RNC over there treatment of Trump.
There is the GOPe =ing RINOs.
Then there is the GOPt =ing Patriots.
good ole Georgia boy with common sense and a patriot.
“Not much chance NC RNC drops Tillis”
Notice how the worthless Pr!ck passed on voting against the President on the Border Resolution. He’s up next year so McConnell told him he could vote “with” the President so he doesn’t have a negative campaign issue. Virtually all of the twelve, I think Collins is the only returning RINO who voted against the President on this matter. She is so arrogant (and stupid), she probably thinks she will win either way.
Yet every one of those Republican “patriots” you mentioned, along with my scumbag Congresscritter, Alex Mooney (R) WV2, voted to pass that pro-islam POS ammendment the other day.

It is foolish to believe that ANY politician has the welfare of this nation and its taxpaying citizens at heart.
They are ALL $#!t
there are a good number more great gop house members - and those guys you just mentioned would be the first to tell you about all of them. We just need more, that’s all.
“those guys you just mentioned would be the first to tell you about all of them.”
I imagine that there would be maybe 10% of the House that you might term, “the good guys,” but where were they when Ryan was screwing the President over? Where was the vote to remove him as Speaker after he had resigned? I suppose “testicular fortitude” is not very strong in them, because no one ever said “hell no” to what was going on. Are you really a Bushie? Personally, I think the whole Bush Family is a national disgrace, along with not being very bright. I wonder where we would be today if Trump had followed Reagan.
