Republicans gripe about 'rigged' hearings after explosive Ukraine testimony
If a top U.S. envoy’s testimony about Ukraine is a Capitol Hill bombshell, the Senate appears to be outside the blast zone.
And some are refusing to play ball at all. Sen. John Cornyn , for example, said he has no plans to review any more daily, hourly or “minute-by-minute” coverage of the impeachment proceedings.Bill Taylor. I’ve been busy… doing important things, not participating in a sham process over in the House,” Cornyn said. “The drip drip drip of leaked testimony is producing daily news stories like you’re asking me about it. It’s part of their plan and scheme and I do not approve.
Sen. John Thune , the No. 2 Senate Republican, bashed House Democrats for not making public Taylor’s testimony. “It appears to be an important piece of evidence. But without being present for the Q and A and without more transparency in this process, it’s difficult to assess,” said Sen. Susan Collins . Taylor “is certainly a credible individual with years of service to his country. By no means” should he be dismissed.
