  • Today in the group chat, two congressmen quit as sex scandal shake Capitol Hill.

  • Is this what accountability looks like in the Trump era?

  • So Democrats and Republicans had a plan to get them out.

  • Why is this one of the few things that can bring both sides together?

  • The ball is in the Iranian court because we put a lot on the table.

  • So the door is open for more peace talks.

  • But what, if anything, would be different this time?

  • That is equally unacceptable to blockage.

  • It's extortion.

  • And the straight blockade, will the White House attempt to squeeze Iran actually hurt Americans?

  • I thought that was blasphemy.

  • Backlash over Trump's Jesus post.

  • Should he be worried about catching hell from Catholic voters?

  • CNN This Morning starts right now.

  • What surprises me is how these guys keep doing this over and over.

  • He's not the first and he probably won't be the last.

  • That they get into positions of authority and they think they can have whatever they want.

  • Ultimately, it's good to see a little accountability.

  • All right, we're going to start this morning with an ugly pair of scandals.

  • Two members of Congress quit at almost the same time.
