Sen. Warnock: 'We gotta have a handful of Republicans who understand that they work for the people of America and not for someone who wants to be a king. That's the moral decision for my colleagues on the other side of the aisle. I pray to God that they find the backbone to make the right decision.'

GREAT work by Sen. Sheldon Whitehouse at the Kash Patel confirmation. Arguably, the worst cabinet nominee ever. Will servile Republicans give him a boost as well?
