The ex-Congressman then dropped a bombshell.You know, in law theres whats called an angry withdrawal if a clients committing fraud in court, the attorney is required to leave, Jolly explained. If John Kelly leaves thats significant. There are Republicans, not elected ones in Washington right now, beginning to question whether or not we would be a safer nation if Democrats took the house in 2018. Because Republicans are never going to do the job they need to do because of the political consequences they would face at home.

REPUBLICAN VOTERS.
