    Jim Risch after midnight, refusing to answer questions about why he went to war - and brought the Senate to a halt - over the changing of the name of a wilderness area in his state after a now-deceased political rivalhttps://twitter.com/foxreports/status/977037779224981504 …

    Manu Raju added,

    Lauren FoxVerified account @FoxReports
    Risch didn't want to talk to reporters. We asked multiple questions. Finally he stopped, looked at us and said "no." “What part of no don’t you understand? Do I have a problem with my English? I don’t have any comment on this.” Risch said.

        The country deserves better than petulant, arrogant elected officials who won’t explain their actions (or can’t rationally defend them), when said actions affect the entire country.

        Risch doesn't hold a candle to the brilliant wonderful person that was Cecil Andrus. I rode in an elevator with him frequently at BSU and he was never aloof or conceited. Can't say the same about Risch.

        "I'm a United States Senator. I'm not accountable for my actions and don't need to answer your impertinent questions." He added as he walked away to consult with his donor overlords.

        Cecil Andrus did amazing things for community and state and was revered, Risch not so much.

        Vote these arrogant s.o.b.s out! The idea that they think they do not have to answer to the American people is reprehensible.

        These guys work 2-3 days a week and are getting ready to leave for ANOTHER two-week vacation. I don't care if they got held up for a few minutes during negotiations. They should be working a lot harder if you ask me.
