I don’t understand the hoopla about this. Didn’t three Republicans meet with Assad on Sunday? And I wasn’t aware of this before, but the article says a US assistant secretary of state just had a meeting with a Syrian official recently. Why was there no outcry over these meetings?
One would assume that the Asst. Sec State was acting in an official capacity as liaison for the Executive Branch as is their official Constitutionally sanctioned function. As for the other Critters, I don’t know, but I suspect that it was because they were republicans and more likely, the MSM couldn’t use them to prop up their princess, Nazi Pelosi and therefore wasn’t reported. Also, they could have had official, or even unofficial sanction, by the executive branch. If they went there of their own accord to do an end run around the President, then hell yes, I’d be just as angry with them.
