“I’ve talked to anywhere from five to of my colleagues who have very severe misgivings about the direction that Mitch McConnell is going in denying a full, fair proceeding with witnesses and documents. My hope is that they will say publicly what Senator Murkowski did, and really hold Mitch McConnell accountable, “the Connecticut senator said during” Capitol News Briefing “on the Connecticut Network.
Earlier this week,Sen. Lisa Murkowski, R-AK, statedthat she is “disturbed” by McConnell’s remarks that he is going to work “in total coordination” with the White House during the upcoming impeachment trial in the Senate, andthat he wouldn’t be“impartial about this at all.”
Her comments come after an interview the Majority Leader had with Sean Hannity on Fox News where hedeclaredthat “everything “he does” during this, I’m coordinating with the White House counsel. There will be no difference between the president’s position and our position as to how to handle this, to the extent that we can. “
