Watch Republican give awkward speech on Russia to empty senate chamber

In a previous piece we reported the outgoing Arizona Republican Senator (and Never Trumper) Jeff Flake giving a 14 minute speech to an all-but empty Senate floor.  This speech was attended by all of two – yes, only two Senators, both of them not big Trump fans, either, these two being Dick Durbin and Amy Klobuchar.
However, the good Senator lied.  What is particularly sad about this is that he lied while giving a speech that was about truthfulness.
