their silence is conspicuous. Protocol be damned, republicans are not observing the law, protocol or not firing people for telling the truth about this POTUS and his administration. This is our democratic experiment in jeopardy of fast becoming fascist. and nothing but crickets. Sad to me, but what do I know. Impeachment didn't work, that's all I know. And Trump our first Al Capone POTUS gives less than a damn about the stain historical or otherwise on his record. He is all about enriching his buddies, his family cons and himself.
