Graham, Lindsey (SC), Chairman
Grassley, Chuck (IA)
Cornyn, John (TX)
Lee, Mike (UT)
Cruz, Ted (TX)
Sasse, Ben (NE)
Hawley, Josh (MO)
Tillis, Thom (NC)
Ernst, Joni (IA)
Crapo, Mike (ID)
Kennedy, John (LA)
Blackburn, Marsha (TN)

I bet it’s Lindsey and Grassley.

Some Republicans said they were upset by the speed at which Cruz was moving to have this hearing, and they said they would Vote against it.

Run out the Clock - again.

Take the vote so we can clearly identify the enemies.

Censorship (and doxxing and the cancel culture) is a _big_ issue for voters (totally missed by pollsters btw), and imho is one reason that the President will be comfortably re-elected.

These senators are politically tone-deaf.

You can’t fix stupid!

Sen. Ted Cruz thinks the delay is not a problem:

“One way or another, either voluntarily or pursuant to subpoena, they will testify and they will testify before the election,” Cruz said.

Laura Ingraham just assumed the GOP was going to Subpoena him in the Vote.

She went as far to say, imagine if the Dems run things, there would be no subpoena and hearing.

Both Parties are on the take.
The President is the only outsider from the Deep State Swamp bunch... often times I think Washington DC is a vortex to hell.
