Isn’t Sasse the guy who acts like a critic but has voted lock-step with Trump like 90 percent of the time?
87%. There's only 7 republicans who have voted "for" Trump items less than Sasse.

And he does represent ultra conservative Nebraska so it's not exactly failing to serve his constituents.

Kamala Harris has voted 15% of the time "with" Trump, Bernie 11% and Elizabeth Warren 10%....so there is a great deal of salt to be taken with analysis. It's not exactly a profile-in-courage to vote with the 98 on a 98-2 vote requiring Trump to comply with Russia sanctions (I wonder who the other two were).
Bottom line still remains that Flake, Sasse, Paul, Corker, Rubio et al are all talk and no action on their faux-outrage. As I said, at least the likes of Cornyn, McConnell, Cotton, Shelby et al have the honesty to be proud sycophants!

What You Need To Know About Another Wild Week In The Russia Investigation
Cohen making it sound like he was working for Lord Voldemort, and also apparently has more beans to spill?
Cohen then suggested that he has still more to say about Trump, when the time is right. In a sometimes emotional courtroom speech in Manhattan on Wednesday, he made clear that he feels he has broken free from the thrall under which Trump once held him.
"Blind loyalty to this man," [Michael Cohen] said, "led me to choose a path of darkness, not light."
Now, Cohen said, he has his "freedom back," notwithstanding the prison term, and his adviser vowed that Cohen isn't finished talking publicly about what he knows about Trump.
"At the appropriate time, after [special counsel Robert] Mueller completes his investigation and issues his final report, I look forward to assisting Michael to state publicly all he knows about Mr. Trump – and that includes any appropriate congressional committee interested in the search for truth and the difference between facts and lies," Lanny Davis said in a statement after the sentencing hearing....
there's also this:
A tabloid publisher has admitted its role in the hush-money scheme
...Pecker and AMI won't face criminal charges but they have been cooperating with prosecutors, and the materials released by the U.S. Attorney's Office suggested that cooperation could continue going forward.
Meaning what? Were there other "negative stories" that Pecker helped smother for Trump's 2016 campaign? If so, that information could be in the hands of federal authorities...
also, the Russian spy chick has a hearing today.
crazy that while we've already seen so many consequences, there's still apparently much more to develop.

Courtesy of new reports released by the Senate Intelligence Committee, we’re now learning new details about a major disinformation campaign that Russia ran against special counsel Robert S. Mueller III.
Prepare to sit down for this one: In an extraordinary coincidence, it turns out that Russia’s messaging about the Mueller investigation is eerily, strikingly similar to the attacks on it waged by a rather prominent American: President Trump.

That's some reckless journalism. No details, just a shock value headline. Even Smerconish on CNN was saying you can't put BS stories out like that.

It's an astonishing headline that the WH isn't debating. The fact some care more about journalist alerting us to such crazy news than the actual news is nuts.

News would be if they found something. Investigating and finding nothing makes that headline a bit sensationalized imo.

I'm sure there is plenty of stuff....but if he was discovered as working on behalf of Russia then they would have taken immediate action.

you don’t think the public deserves to know that such investigations are under way, and why?
