    Or what? Is that supposed to be a threat? Seems to me that if a Republican is warning you not to investigate something then it definitely needs investigating.

      I think he’s implying that exposing the corruption will bring to light corrupt Democrats as well.

      Which is such a fucking typical conservative concept, as though the party should defend the corruption within by ignoring corruption everywhere. Jokes on you, motherfucker, because we want to expose and eliminate corruption among Democrats and Republicans.

        And the republicans will find something minor and insignificant about a democrat and make a massive deal about it as though they are equivalent issues.

        Like Biden’s classified document issue compared to Trumps. Then they say, “See? Both sides are basically the same”.

      “You won’t like me if I get… uncivil” is the most Senate threat in the book.

      Nevermind that we’ve got sitting Senators who have body-slammed journalists in recent memory.
