It will be interesting to see who, in addition to Cheney and Kinzinger, cast those votes.

They were screaming for Hillary to be locked up for something (ANYTHING!) that she didn't do, and would like the death penalty for any woman who wants and gets an abortion.

But don't take this one vote for support of the 1/6 committee, or that they think former Trump White House employees shouldn't be able to claim exec privilege.
