Per sources, some GOP senators privately pushing White House for information on who at administration had visibility into the manuscript over the last month. Senators feel blindsided.

The whole obstructi0n of justice charge is about the White House refusing to cooperate with any sort of investigation into the whistleblower complaint, and that means cooperation with their own party in Congress. It's an "us vs them" mentality that is completely inappropriate to any sort of functioning government.

Yes, boys, let me spell it out: he's been lying to you for months. He doesn't just lie to meanie Democrats, he lies to everybody. You might be loyal to him but he'll never be loyal to you. Get it yet?

Probably not, probably never. Thick as planks.

Do these GOP Senators somehow imagine they will get a straight answer from the White House?

They're furious about the Bolton revelation, and want to punish whoever leaked the info.
