Jeff the "FLAKE" must always be remembered like Benedict Arnold or Vidkun Quisling. (from Norway).
Anti-Americanism is not acceptable behaviour for a Congressman. Even if he does it for the money, from Soros.

Unless he changes his heart and ways, he is on track to be providing McCain comfort in person.

Why isn’t he just booted off the Judiciary Committee since he’s a lame duck and he’s kissing up to Senator Chris Coons (D-De).

Flake told President Trump to go to hell. And Trump just takes it with Twitter his only plan. Flake is a communists Democrat and follows McCain hate for Trump.

Because all the rinos want a vote on protecting the witch hunt. It gives them leverage over Trump. Trump is not defending himself here, I don't know why.

McConnell needs to tell Flake to shuv it. Either put the nominations directly on the senate floor or pull lane-duck ( and lame- brained) fldke off the judiciary committee now. F

Can McConnell pull him off judiciary? Yes McConnell can but won't. McConnell is just a weak being when it comes to hitting hard with the RINOs.
To: Texas Fossil
Petty and bitter to the end. Fire him off the committee and replace him.

On his radio show this morning, Andrew Wilkow called Flake “a piece of work”—and he explained that “work” is spelled “s__t.”
To: Texas Fossil
Dont cave into him. Hes our Judas and is sabotaging conservative nominees out of pure spite.

To: Texas Fossil
The plan is to have a two party co-equal justice department. Then to spend all the budget investigating each other and building an immigrant voter base. As for the real charter of the justice department, they abandoned that in favor of political espionage to the highest bidder long ago.

Legislation to protect Special Counsel Robert Mueller is unconstitutional. It would effectively create a new branch of government unaccountable to the executive branch. The Constitution provides that Congress shall establish the Judiciary, with the advise of the Executive, and consent of the Senate. (per Mile Lee). Removal of the Executive power is therefore, unconstitutional.
Flake is a putz.

Pull the calendar and reschedule floor votes to January and punish Flake by blocking the bill from ever coming to a vote.
Let him twist slowly in the wind. Senate shouldnt be held hostage to the lines of him.

Yup. Supreme Court said in Meyer in 1926 Congress cant constrain the Presidents ability to remove executive branch officials who serve at his pleasure.
Goes to the separation of powers.

Tell Flake to kiss Trump’s butt. Then confirm them all in January.

Thanks for that explanation of the law.
Yes, Flake is Truly Flakey.
