thanx for this.

Xavier Becerra (D) should probably be under House of Rep.

More Wow.

It's an interesting list. I'm glad someone has done that work.

Has anyone made a chart of how many Sens and Reps didn't seek election in the last 10 sessions of Congress? You might be able to prove that there is an unusually high number in the categories if you did, as it stands I can't say if it's high, or we are just paying attention to it because we were told to.

Also, again from the point of view of deconstructing Mueller and ending the witch hunt these don't matter much. Take the worst of them Conyers, for instance. He resigned for sexual harassment as part of the #metoo movement.

It's great he's gone for a general hygiene point of view, but does absolutely nothing to help Trump or hurt Mueller, which is what I am primarily trying to show with my chart.
