Sunday on CNN’s “State of the Union,” in reacting to reports about President Donald Trump’s national security adviser Michael Flynn’s phone conversations with a Russian ambassador, Sen. Al Franken (D-MN) said, “We need to have an independent investigation on it” because what he said was Trump having a “Putin crush.”

Partial transcript as follows:

FRANKEN: There is a lot here that we need to look at, and we need to have an independent investigation on it.

TAPPER: When you say independent, what do you mean, independent counsel, select committee?

Did Franken ever get around to paying the payroll taxes he withheld from his employees’ paychecks back when he was doing his pathetic radio show?

“Obama’s “Reggie Crush” first’


No, let’s do Obama’s Rev Wright’s Church Choir Director’s death first!

Guy was rumored to be on the “down low” with BHO and turn’s up dead!!!

Much more interesting than Reggie and BHO groping each other on a regular basis!

I hope somewhere in the admin there is a person selecting a dirty democrat who needs to have the book thrown at him or her. Time to make an example of someone who’s been ignored legally speaking for 8 years.

We should now launch an investigation regarding how Franken stole the election that put him in the Senate. Have him removed.

When over the top and/or criminal progs are adjudicated for criminal prosecution, preferably by the hundreds, this madness will cease.
