Confirmed by one, two more sources.

The first link doesn't seem to work for me.

In terms of the other two links, what the heck do they have to do with the topic of this thread? It makes no sense at all at least in context of what is in the second and third articles.

But welcome to politics. The Republicans haven't been without fault in this regard either.
