This week, marking the 241st anniversary of our Declaration of Independence, our current pr*sident killed any remnant fantasy that he might actually stand his ground against a foreign intrusion on our democracy.

It is especially incumbent on Ryan—who has refused to hold Trump accountable at every turn—to do what the incapacitated pr*sident he has enabled is incapable of doing.
