‘Study up on Civics 101’ – GOP Senator to Laura Ingraham

Senator Thom Tillis made fun of Laura Ingraham’s lack of constitutional wisdom in an attack on Twitter on his acts.

Here’s more about what Tillis is pushing:

Senators introduced two bipartisan bills Thursday aimed at protecting Special Counsel Robert Mueller from being fired by President Donald Trump as both parties signaled resistance to any White House effort to derail the investigation into Russian meddling in last year’s election.

The similar measures emerged hours before the Senate was planning to begin a summer recess, when some lawmakers have said they fear Trump might remove Mueller. Senators have warned Trump not to dismiss Mueller, and lawmakers were hoping the bills’ release would communicate clear congressional opposition to such a move.

One plan by Sens. Thom Tillis, R-N.C., and Chris Coons, D-Del., would let any special counsel for the Department of Justice challenge his or her removal in court. A three-judge panel would review the dismissal within 14 days of the challenge.

The measure would apply retroactively to this past May 17. That is the day Mueller was appointed by Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein to investigate allegations of Russian interference in the 2016 election and possible ties between Russia and Trump’s presidential campaign.

Here’s the tweet:

Tillis is right here. She’s not actually angry about checks and balances, she’s upset that a Republicans would ever do anything to reign in presidential power for Trump. This is in fact, exactly what the founders intended – one branch to check the other when they believe their constitutional powers are being abused. Debate the issue, don’t just toss around insults.
