One bill, sponsored by Sens. Thom Tillis, R-N.C., and Chris Coons, D-Del., would allow a special counsel who is fired to challenge that dismissal in federal court. A panel of judges would have to review the challenge within 14 days.

Another bill, by Sens. Lindsey Graham, R-S.C., and Cory Booker, D-N.J., would require a judicial review to remove a special counsel from office. The attorney general would have to petition a federal court and establish that there was a "good cause" for the firing, such as misconduct, incapacity or conflict of interest.

The Senate Judiciary Committee has scheduled a hearing on the bills for Tuesday

3. Why is Lindsey in on this?

He's one of the ratfuckers lying about health care and trying to ram through the repeal of the ACA.

6. It's simply

that he has loyalty to his party and none to degenerate donnie himself.

Sometimes I just can not figure these freaks out.

But it is pretty simple, isn't it.

Just like McCain....
