Senator, exactly how many times do Republicans have to demonstrate that they are not interested in the rule of law, before you take some sort of action? Head over to that planned meeting with a press contingent and have a vocal protest. Do something concrete, please.

Why is DOJ participating? Why don't Congressional reps take action to stop the partisan meeting? The government is more than one compromised, unethical man! It takes a lot of complicity for this to happen.
