To Congressional Republicans: as I type this, there are still some of you who say you "can't

comment" on the whistleblower complaint because you have been "too busy" to read it. The complaint is 9 pages long.

Don't look now, but you are being watched. People are finally paying attention and they not only expect you to "comment", they expect you to say something that makes sense and does not spin off into the universe of "alternate facts".

The question is no longer whether Donald Trump has committed an impeachable offense. He has ADMITTED to crimes that most Americans would call "traitorous". The question now put to each of you is: "What are you going to do about the criminal in the White House?"

To further clarify your actual situation, your "constituency" is our children and grandchildren---and yours. Your jury will be history and the verdict will be widely publicized.

So, what will you do about the admitted criminal in the White House?

Hmm-m-m?

"I haven't read it" is the new "I don't recall."

This question should be asked of every Russiapublican in House and Senate.
Daily.
