    In 2018, having witnessed @realDonaldTrump appoint two justices to the #SCOTUS, as well as the ugly tactics deployed by Senate Democrats during the confirmation process, Americans reaffirmed their support for his judicial nominees by expanding the GOP majority in the Senate.
    In 2016, Americans elected @realdonaldtrump to the White House. In 2018, Americans elected Republicans to hold the Senate Majority. We ran on confirming constitutional judges to the courts. And that’s what we are going to do.

    Criticism of the Grassley-Graham criminal referral of Christopher Steele hasn’t aged well. Let’s do a look-back at how media and commentators received the referral in January 2018.
    FISA report shows Steele dossier built on lies&rumor Graham/Grassley crim referral of Steele Jan 2018 looks like tip of iceberg compared 2details exposed by IG re politically motivated Steele dossier. FBI fed FISA court a bunch of hogwash knowing Steele dossier had NO credibility

    NEW from @ChuckGrassley → “The American people can now see with their own eyes – for the first time – that all of the innuendo about Lt. General Flynn this whole time was totally bunk. There was nothing improper about his call, and the FBI knew it.”
