William Ruckelshaus, The Man Who Defied Nixon, Dies At 87 | The 11th Hour | MSNBC
Wow, Hopefully we have more willing to do the right thing!
Those days are over!
Ethics in government?
Hope there’s another real American somewhere in THIS Administration.
Was he Jewish?
In the judiciary committee, we won’t have Devin Nunes repeating the same conspiracy theories over and over. That’s good. I’m just concerned Jerry Nadler might not have the strong leadership style that Adam Schiff showed in previous hearings.
Blink Once on Sunday! … I hear you.
Adam Schiff was powerful: an example of what a Chairperson should be.
Let’s give Nadler a chance.
Remember when real Republican men stood up against a crook in the White House? Now we have train wrecks like Barr, Jordan, Nunes, McConnell and Graham.
This Impeachment inquiry is partisan and unfair. This whole hearing was a scam from the start. Just like the other scandals. You have democrats wanting him impeached even before the facts came out. That’s why it’ll get shot down in the senate
@Logan McLean Do you know what else is unfair? The abuse of the powers of the office of the presidency. If all the testimony and evidence from the Mueller Report, the Ukrainian scandal and his tax evasion don’t move Republicans, then partisanship has eclipsed our union. Hopefully, someone will remind the GOP they are Americans.

There’s been no tax evasion. If you believe that you’re just not smart. The mueller report let us know that Russia wanted and helped trump win in 2016. No collusion though. And with this one, the Ukraine president said he never felt pressured, yet dems day its bribery. Plus, have you looked into the hunter Biden situation. Not good
prince, Who abused the powers of the president? I think dems are trying to abuse his powers but not successfully. What is your issue?
He probably was fed up with the public display of today’s shameful politics and spineless politicians.
Memo to Nikki Haley, Marco Rubio, Condoleeza Rice, your obituary will include your support for tRump.
Another story twisted against Trump,fake news at work again,please enjoy me watching,see you 2020
Hello, Bot!
Both Bush presidents were crooks and no they didn’t put Americans and the constitution first. This guy should shut up.
You are too smart to watch this channel.
Republicans of these era are corrupt as their leader so all this wishing is not going to materialise, the only time republicans say anything against this dictator is when they are leaving office!!!
Attorney General Barr is Trump’s lapdog. He will never do the right thing to protect our Constitution and the Rule of Law. Trump implicated Barr in the infamous Ukraine call and has refused to recuse himself from the impeachment case and did not investigate the Whistleblower’s CREDIBLE and URGENT allegations as legally required!!!
We have lost a true patriot and statesman.
R. I. P Mr Haus.
Country over party.
National hero.. true soldier. God rest his soul.
Trump is pure trash.period
Nixon seems rather normal compared to Trump the loon.
bisquitnspanky 😌
Ruckelshaus set the example for Pompeo, Mulvaney, Minuchin, and co.
Pity they don’t read history and learn
