Republican Senator Ben Sasse came out of SCIF saying there's not no there there





Josh Campbell

@joshscampbell
After reading the whistleblower complaint, Sen. Ben Sasse cautions all parties to pump the brakes. To those in his party, he says: “Republicans ought not to be rushing to circle the wagons and say there’s no there there when there’s obviously a lot that’s very troubling there.”
