I tought this hearing was supposed to be about Flynn?

Why do the Republican Senators keep coming back to Yates not defending Drumpf's immigration ban?

The ban has lost every time it's been in front of a federal court.

One he said our election system has to be more secure. He pointed out that some states pushed back when that was suggested to them.

I hope people take the security of our elections more seriously from here on out.

It is supposed to be about Russian meddling in the 2016 election season broadly - but it's entirely predictable that the orange assclown would direct his repuke troops to try to distract and any chance they can get to brown nose by making reference to the stupid travel ban would make Trump happy.

Flynn might be an agent of Russia? So what?

U.S. Citizen #2 is unmasked as Flynn? Horrors!

Repugs have their outrage a bit misdirected.
