I understand why we use the “and they are Republicans” as part of some arguments, but I agree with Susan Hennessy here:

Andrew McCarthy - “I said this could never happen. This is so bad that they should be looking at the judges who signed off on this stuff, not just the people who gave it. It is so bad it screams out at you.” On the whole FISA scam which led to the rigged Mueller Witch Hunt!

All four judges who signed off on this were Republicans. https://t.co/Asc9rQi7Mj

I worry that the response that judges, prosecutors, Mueller, etc are Republican risks feeding into a narrative that public servants shouldn’t be trusted to be truly impartial. This order wouldn’t be any less valid, nor more suspicious if the judges were appointed by a Democrat. https://t.co/RGczthWJ1z
