“Arrive in Washington and vote yourself a get-out-of-jail card, immediately,” Mike Barnicle summarized. “No investigations, no ethics investigations, no reporting, really.”

“Republicans have complete power, and their first act out of the gate is just complete arrogance. It’s a horrific misstep,” Scarborough continued.
