Sorry Senators, the Attorney General is otherwise occupied with the pressing task of prosecuting legal pot shops in San Francisco.

Sweet! Now, assuming Rosenstein actually does his job, look for Steele to flip. But not before receiving generous gifts from hillary goons to fund his legal defense. And pay for a new house, and yacht, and porsche, and...

Looks like you’re right about McCain. Surprising not to hear a word from or about this total publicity hog since he returned to Arizona before Christmas. Terminal illness is the best explanation.
