“My members on the other side, if there are two people that are thrilled and excited today, there are two people: the folks over at Fox News and at the Kremlin,” Gutierrez stated. “Because they both worked on one thing: electing President Trump, President of the United States of America.”

“They have got to be overjoyed today at the Kremlin, and they’ve got to be applauding. And watch the news reel tonight. Because a lot of this today is simply — what? Auditioning for Fox News, and of course, at the clapping at the Kremlin,” Gutierrez said. “I never thought I would see a time that the Congress of the United States would do the work of destroying.”
