Emperor Carrot Head's Hatchet Men
They all have their own particular assignments.
It seems that they reach escape velocity, when the have completed their hatchet job.
Rep. Jason Chaffetz (R-UT) leaks and lies
https://thinkprogress.org/trump-chaffetz-fbi-investigation-lies-e9fff5359102/
Speaker of the House Paul Ryan (R-Wis.)
Paul Ryan's Potemkin facade of deficit fear, disintegrated when the wealthy were given their obscene tax cut
Paul Ryan turned a blind eye, and a deaf ear--
Refused to enforce the Constitution’s emoluments clause or demand that Trump end conflicts of interest.
Supported Trump’s noxious crusade against “dreamers.”
Declined to protect the special counsel or to rebuke Trump on his serial attacks on the rule of law.
Balked at a congressional action (too partisan!) against Trump for his Charlottesville remarks.
Declined to demand robust oversight of a slew of financial scandals involving the Interior Department, the Treasury Department, the Department of Housing and Urban Development, and the Environmental Protection Agency.
Couldn’t demand accountability after more than a dozen women came forward with complaints of sexual harassment/abuse; Trump’s endorsement of Roy Moore; or payoffs to Trump’s alleged ex-mistresses.

House Intelligence Committee Rep. Devin Nunes (R-Calif.),
Who has torn down the architecture of intelligence oversight, smeared the FBI and misled the public about the workings of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court and the Justice Department.
Nunes made a choice
It was skullduggery

Head Of House Intel Committee Went To White House Grounds To Meet Source

The Surveillance Caper
Which foreign government supplied the White House with info ?
Ezra Cohen-Watnick of the National Security Council
pMichael Ellis, a national security lawyer with the White House Counsel's Office
Ezra Cohen-Watnik came into the administration via former national security adviser Michael Flynn, who was ousted after it was revealed he misled the administration about his conversations with Russia’s U.S. ambassador.
Politico reported that new national security adviser H.R. McMaster had attempted to remove Cohen-Watnik from his position but that Trump intervened.

Truly loyal hatchet men
Murky cicumstances

When Trump allegedly demanded personal loyalty, Comey promised honesty. After the president offered a confounding compromise – "honest loyalty" – Comey says he remembers saying, "You’ll get that from me." Asked whether he crossed a line by conceding that to Trump, the former FBI director allows that "maybe I should’ve been tougher or more direct."
