Sen. Susan Collins (R-Maine) wouldn’t speak about the subpoena itself, but defended the character of Burr in leading the Intelligence Committee. “I support his leadership and think that he has done a good job,” she said, the Washington Post reported.
Sen. Marco Rubio (R-Florida), another member of the committee, also defended Burr’s leadership, and questioned whether some of his colleagues understood that their work was different from special counsel Robert Mueller’s investigation that concluded earlier this year.
“Mueller is a criminal justice investigation. Ours is an intelligence investigation about the Russia threat and about the way our agencies performed,” Rubio explained.
Others, like Sen. Roy Blunt (R-Missouri), noted that the committee has called back other witnesses to appear before it for another round of questioning. “I think his brother-in-law [Jared Kushner] came in in a similar situation to be sure that every question was clearly understood and clearly answered, and I think he [Trump Jr.] should too,” Blunt said, according to a report from Bloomberg.

More succinctly..... All of them are REPUBLICANS!
I agree...
Traitor is a pretty strong term for what has taken place, but it comes damn close for me.
Shelby!
You rat.
He’ll hear from me.
YUP!
That was the choice the GOP provided for FL voters.
We get the same here in WV with the Republican party handing us Moore-Capito.
‘their work is different’ yaknow. So says the shrinking Rubio.
Capito is up in 2020, time for a primary challenge is NOW.
You expect some WV Republican to launch a credible attempt to oust Capito?
BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!
Only if they want to keep their country.
Capito is a Bush League Republican.
I feel sure that Trump has studied the history of the Lincoln presidency. Lincoln took nothing but **** during his four years in office. He would have received the same ration for the next four years had he not been assassinated. We remember Lincoln as a cool, collected President, more sinned against than sinning. He has angered the Democrats no end as he has proved that he not only is President but acts presidential. He moves at his own pace, and that pace is faster than nearly every politician in Washington.
Weak Sisters!!!
The REPUBLICAN party stands behind her and any Republican who legitimately tries to usurp her will be destroyed.
It's called "POLITICS" for a reason, FRiend.
Unless deplorables wrest control of the GOP from Bush League Republicans and replace them, whatever Trump accomplishes will have been in vain.
The still want to amnesty all the illegals who are here and let them keep coming.
Herein lies the fault in your reasoning.
Your statement implies that politicians actually care about what is good for this nation and its citizens. NOTHING could be further from the truth.
Their ONLY interests are self-agrandizement, power and personal wealth (not necessarily in that order)
Only if they want to keep their country.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I was talking about Republican voters, the citizens.
WE have to stop voting for weasels.
Can't be done by political means. THEY make the rules.
The GOP screwed up royally in '15 & '16 by letting Mr. Trump join the fray. They saw him as a foil for Jeb! and were more than happy to sell him the "R" brand and take his entry fees to state primaries, cauci, etc.....but they won't make THAT mistake again.
Circular arguement
“I keep saying, “THE STUPID PARTY” for a reason!!!”
It isn’t stupid if that was the plan in the first place:
1. Get elected by throwing red meat to the base (i.e. the can actually articulate the issue and recognize it is a problem.
2. Stage a public fight on trying to ‘do the right thing by the voters’.
3. Make a deal behind closed doors with the D’s.
4. Come up ‘just short’, call for a need to elect more GOP, take whatever largess came from the deal, and get ready for reelection.
This describes the GOP since Reagan left. Bush basically ran the whole thing for the last 30 years as a CIA op.
West Virginia hasn’t seen the ravages of illegal immigration like most other states, but you will.
President Trump is trying to stop US from becoming North Mexico, we need to elect people who support that.
In light of what we know now, 100 percent traitorous scum
The usual suspects.
