Fox News: Jeff Flake joins over 24 former GOP members of Congress to launch 'Republicans for Biden'

A bit remarkable Fox posted this on their website but here it is:

EXCLUSIVE: More than two-dozen former Republican members of Congress threw their support behind a “Republicans for Biden” effort being launched Monday by the Democratic presidential nominee's campaign to engage potential GOP supporters this November.

The announcement comes on the first day of the Republican National Convention, as delegates prepare to formally re-nominate President Trump on Monday.

First time I have ever posted a link from Fox News. Although its pro-Biden it still feels icky.
