@SenShelby& #39;s all-GOP group: @JerryMoran, @SenJohnHoeven, @RepKayGranger, @JonHuntsman, @SenJohnThune, @SteveDaines, @SenJohnKennedy, @SenRonJohnson.

They met w/Lavrov, Kislyak & others who helped THROW the election to @realDonaldTrumphttps://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="‼️" title="Doppeltes Ausrufezeichen" aria-label="Emoji: Doppeltes Ausrufezeichen">https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="🤬" title="Gesicht mit Symbolen über dem Mund" aria-label="Emoji: Gesicht mit Symbolen über dem Mund"> 2/ https://twitter.com/Lucian_Kim/status/1014073568177655809">https://twitter.com/Lucian_Ki...
Shelby: "We are competitors but don& #39;t necessarily need to be adversaries."https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="🤨" title="Gesicht mit hochgezogener Augenbraue" aria-label="Emoji: Gesicht mit hochgezogener Augenbraue">

Shelby said ZERO about #Russiahttps://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="🇷🇺" title="Flagge von Russland" aria-label="Emoji: Flagge von Russland">helping to throw the election to Trump. On the *same day*, Senate Intel released its BIPARTISAN report, led by @SenatorBurr & @MarkWarnerhttps://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="👇🏼" title="Rückhand Zeigefinger nach unten (mittelheller Hautton)" aria-label="Emoji: Rückhand Zeigefinger nach unten (mittelheller Hautton)">3/ https://twitter.com/DrDenaGrayson/status/1014259009904365568">https://twitter.com/DrDenaGra...
Shelby: "We know there& #39;s going to be a big meeting – we hope it& #39;s going to be a very big meeting btwn our president and yours in #Helsinki in a few weeks."https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="😳" title="Errötetes Gesicht" aria-label="Emoji: Errötetes Gesicht"> 4/

Finally, someone in the all- #GOP group mentions the election. @SenJohnKennedy: "I ask our friends in #Russiahttps://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="🇷🇺" title="Flagge von Russland" aria-label="Emoji: Flagge von Russland">not to interfere in our election this year."

Note: They& #39;re not our "friends" and "asking" them not to interfere has NO chance of working.https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="🙄" title="Gesicht mit rollenden Augen" aria-label="Emoji: Gesicht mit rollenden Augen"> 5/ https://twitter.com/Lucian_Kim/status/1014152672344182787">https://twitter.com/Lucian_Ki...
Can you imagine if Barack Obama or Hillary Clinton went to Moscow on #IndependenceDay and said even one of the bizarre things that Shelby said?

Nor can I.
