        When the Constitution is followed and honored it usually works as intended. With this congress however, with Grassley, Jordan, McConnell et al it cannot work b/c they are colluding with TRUMP, NRA and PUTIN to destroy democracy.

        .@ChuckGrassley Oh, Chuck, if only your assertions about Congress were true. But you know you’ve done NOTHING to check Trump and never will. You & your colleagues are the political equivalent of the OJ jury: “what evidence? I didn’t see any evidence?”

        And Grassley wants a fake President and unindicted co-consprirator to give to a President that was never an unidicted co-conspirator. Wtf?!

        Given the GOP congressional response (lack of) to everything the Admin has done, @ChuckGrassley tweet is insane.
